As there is no “perfect” thermal insulation, the piping will lose heat to the environment (Qlose.), this way the electric tariff has the objective of restoring the energy in the form of heat (Section) and equalize a permanent regime where the lost energy equals the energy transferred from the electrical trace to the pipe, that is, Qperd. = Section . Video outline to follow:

Electric Trace
What is the Electrical Trace?
The Electric Trace is used in industrial processes to perform temperature maintenance by replacing energy in the form of heat. Its main use is to prevent the increase in viscosity and/or the crystallization of fluids in pipes, tanks, glasses, connections and equipment.
How does it work
A typical application is to keep the process temperature constant (Tube).
