Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances - Part 2: Particular Requirements for Oral Hygiene Appliances Connected to the Mains Supply Through a Safety Isolating Transformer
Also Known As:
The CAN/CSA-E335-2-52-94 standard was created expressly to ensure the security of household and other electrical devices used for oral hygiene that are linked to the mains supply via a safety isolating transformer. This standard covers a variety of oral hygiene tools, including toothbrushes and oral irrigators, that get their power from a safety-isolating transformer. It is significant to note that the hand-held section of the appliance is mechanically distinct from the safety-isolating transformer.
The unique risks that might exist in settings like nurseries or places with young children, elderly people, or those with limited mobility and supervision are not addressed by this guideline. In certain circumstances, extra requirements could be required to guarantee the safety of the appliances. Additionally, this standard does not apply to battery-operated toothbrushes or medical equipment because those topics are covered in separate publications (IEC Publications 335-2-20 and 601-1, respectively).
Additionally, it is indicated that due to the potential climatic circumstances, appliances intended for use in tropical nations may need to meet additional specifications. It is crucial to keep in mind that national health authorities in various nations may have their own unique specifications for these gadgets.
