[Senaqua Hildreth]

IEC60335-2-14:2016 is available as IEC 60335-2-14:2016 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

IEC 60335-2-14:2016 deals with the safety of electric kitchen machines for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. See the scope of 60335-2-14 for a list of appliances that are within the scope of this standard. Appliances intended for normal household and similar use and that may also be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. However, if the appliance is intended to be used professionally to process food for commercial consumption, the appliance is not considered to be for household and similar use only. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances which are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; children playing with the appliance. This standard does not apply to

- slicing machines having a circular knife the blade of which is inclined at an angle exceeding 45 to the vertical;

- food waste disposers;

- ice-cream appliances with incorporated motor compressors kitchen machines intended for commercial purposes;

- kitchen machines intended for industrial purposes;

- kitchen machines intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas). This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2006 including its Amendment 1 (2008) and its Amendment 2 (2012). This edition constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fifth edition of IEC 60335-2-14 are as follows (minor changes are not listed):

- requirements for noodle makers with a mixing function have been introduced (3.1.9.116, 11.7.118, 19.103);

- requirements for appliances having a feed screw or auger have been changed (20.106);

- the definition of normal operation has been changed (3.1.9);

- the method of carrying out the heating test has been changed (11.7);

- the requirement in 20.114 has been modified to align with the test specification;

- some notes in Subclauses 5.2, 11.7.107, 11.7.110, 11.7.116, 20.103, 20.107, 20.108, 20.117, 20.119, 25.14, and Annex AA were converted to normative text. This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard. The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of its publication.

Key words: Appliances, Kitchen machines

IEC 60335-2-40:2022 deals with the safety of electric heat pumps, sanitary hot water heat pumps and air conditioners, incorporating motor-compressors as well as hydronic fan coils units, dehumidifiers (with or without motor-compressors), thermoelectric heat pumps and partial units. Their maximum rated voltage being not more than 300 V for single phase appliances and 600 V for multi-phase appliances. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. The appliances referenced above can consist of one or more factory-made assemblies. If provided in more than one assembly, the separate assemblies are used together, and the requirements are based on the use of matched assemblies. This document does not take into account refrigerants other than group A1, A2L, A2 and A3 as defined by ISO 817. Flammable refrigerants are limited to those of a molar mass of more than or equal to 42 kg/kmol based on WCF (worst case formulation) as specified in ISO 817. As far as practical, this document deals with common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered in normal use and assumes that installation, servicing, decommissioning, and disposal are safely handled by competent persons and accidental release of refrigerants is avoided. However, it does not prescribe the criteria to ensure competence of persons during installation, servicing and disposal. Safety requirements during disposal are not specified in this standard. Supplementary heaters, or a provision for their separate installation, are within the scope of this standard, but only heaters which are designed as a part of the appliance package, the controls being incorporated in the appliance. Attention is drawn to the fact that

- for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on-board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;

- in many countries, additional requirements are specified, for example, by the national health authorities responsible for the protection of labour and the national authorities responsible for storage, transportation, building constructions and installations.

This document does not apply to

- humidifiers intended for use with heating and cooling equipment (IEC 60335-2-88);

- appliances designed exclusively for industrial processing;

- appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).

This seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:

- Clause 1: added thermoelectric heat pumps to the scope and increased maximum rated voltage to 300 V for single phase appliances;

- Clause 7: revised requirements for marking on the appliance and packaging, including a symbol for minimum floor area and modifying the symbol for flammable refrigerants to include the safety group per ISO 817;

- Clause 11 and Clause 19: restructured for alignment with Part 1 and added requirements for supplementary air heaters;

- Clause 13 and Clause 16: revised requirement for leakage current for stationary class I motor-operated appliances;

- Clause 21: added requirements for particle foam material and revised requirements for transport testing;

- Clause 22: removed limit on the sum of refrigerant charges for appliances with multiple refrigerating systems, and revised requirements for avoiding ignition sources, leak detection systems, safety shut-off valves, and particle foam material;

- Clause 23: added requirements to avoid contact between wires and refrigerant piping;

- Clause 24

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC; French: Commission lectrotechnique internationale) is an international standards organization that prepares and publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic and related technologies. IEC standards cover a vast range of technologies within electrotechnology.

The numbers of older IEC standards were converted in 1997 by adding 60000; for example IEC 27 became IEC 60027. IEC standards often have multiple sub-part documents; only the main title for the standard is listed here.

If any of these directives apply to your products, we recommend you to check if the standards you or your suppliers have used have been amended, or that new relevant standards have been included in the list.

The air conditioning and refrigeration industry has developed the A2L classification of refrigerants to overcome the challenges of using lower-GWP refrigerants. While having slightly higher flammability characteristics as compared to traditional A1 refrigerants, A2Ls are much more difficult to ignite and less flammable than A3 hydrocarbon refrigerants, such as propane. A binational (U.S. and Canada) consensus group formed to update the product safety and application standards to allow for the safe use of these more environmentally friendly refrigerants within HVAC/R systems.

One of the risks associated with household electrical heat pumps, air conditioners and dehumidifiers is refrigerant leakage. A refrigerant leak detection system that senses a loss of refrigerant pressure, a critical component in mitigating this risk, is required for all systems in the occupied space exceeding a prescribed refrigerant charge limit. Refrigerant leak detection systems are required to have both sensors and control logic electronics that activate the evaporator fan and use circulated air to quickly disperse and dilute refrigerant in the event of a leak to prevent the formation of refrigerant concentrations.
