AS/NZS 60335.2.81:2015 (IEC TEXT) PDF Download

A standard known as AS/NZS 60335.2.81:2015 (IEC Text) focuses on the safety standards for electric heating mats and foot warmers used in homes and other similar environments. The standard will supersede the old version by November 30, 2018, and is applicable to appliances with a maximum rated voltage of 250 V. The text from IEC 60335-2-81 Ed. 3 is adopted and included in this standard, along with any necessary national revisions. It offers guidance for producers, customers, and regulatory bodies about the design, manufacture, and use of foot warmers and heated mats in order to ensure the safe use of these products. The dangers of electric shock, fire, and other hazards associated with this equipment are reduced to some extent by compliance with this standard.
