A method for creating an electric heating source, including a body equipped with one or more housings containing mineral-insulated heating cables. The housings communicate with one or more reservoirs which accept a purely metallic solder material in solid, powder or sheet form. The device is heated in a vacuum degassing plateau, followed by a casting plateau during which the solder melts and fills the housing around the heating cables, resulting in full metal contact between the cables and the body, providing a more uniform temperature and a shorter response time to heating or cooling. Also, a heating source obtained in this manner, including an infrared faired source or an immersion heater for the heating of a liquid bath of molten metal.
