Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances - Part 2: Particular Requirements for Dishwashers
Also Known As:
A standard that focuses exclusively on the safety criteria for domestic electric dishwashers is CAN/CSA-E335-2-5-94 (R2004). Dishwashers that are intended to clean and rinse dishes, cutlery, and other utensils must adhere to the standard. These appliances' rated voltages shouldn't be more than 480 V for other appliances and 250 V for single-phase appliances.
The standard strives to address the common dishwasher dangers that could happen to anyone in a household setting. However, it does not account for young children left unattended or people with physical disabilities using these products. Additionally, it disregards concerns like kids messing with the device.
It is vital to remember that appliances intended for use in cars, ships, aircraft, or tropical nations may be subject to additional restrictions. Dishwashers may be subject to additional specifications set forth by various national health agencies, labor protection authorities, water supply authorities, and organizations of a similar nature.
The guideline also does not apply to industrial appliances or dishwashers used in commercial settings like hotels or restaurants. Furthermore, it excludes equipment designed for use in locations with unique circumstances, such as corrosive or explosive atmospheres.
