AS/NZS 60335.2.13:2004 PDF Download

The safety criteria for domestic electrical appliances, such as deep-fat fryers, frying pans, and similar devices used for cooking with oil, are explicitly covered by AS/NZS 60335.2.13:2004. Appliances with a rated voltage of no more than 250 V that are only meant for domestic use must comply with the standard.

This standard's goal is to protect consumers by addressing the prevalent risks connected to the kinds of appliances that are usually present in homes. However, it does not address any potential risks associated with young children playing with this equipment or the specific use of the appliances by people who may need supervision.

It is significant to note that additional specifications might be required for appliances used in automobiles, ships, or airplanes, as well as for appliances that must adhere to rules set forth by national health authorities, labor protection authorities, or organizations of a similar nature in other nations.

Commercial multipurpose frying pans, deep fat fryers with recommended maximum oil quantities greater than 4 liters, and equipment used in environments with unique characteristics like corrosive or explosive atmospheres are exempt from this specification.
