$\text { Power }=220\, \mathrm{V} \times 4\, \mathrm{A}=880\, \text { watts. }=880\, \mathrm{J} / \mathrm{s}$

Heat needed to raise the temperature of $1\,kg$ water through $80\,^{o} \mathrm{C}$ 

$ = ms.\,\Delta T \times 4.2\,{\rm{J}}/{\rm{cal}}$

$ = 1000\,{\rm{g}} \times 1\,{\rm{cal}}/{\rm{g}} \times 80 \times 4.2\,{\rm{J}}/{\rm{cal}}$

$ \therefore $  Time taken  ${=\frac{1000 \times 1 \times 80 \times 4.2}{880}=\frac{336 \times 10^{3}}{880}} $ 

${=382\, \mathrm{s}=6.3\, \mathrm{min}}$
