The safety criteria for commercial electric cooking ranges, ovens, hobs, and hob components are the focus of the standard IEC 60335-2-36:2021 in this regard. These appliances are made to be used in business spaces like cafeterias, hospitals, bakeries, and other places that process food. The standard applies to appliances with a rated voltage of 480 V for other appliances and up to 250 V for single-phase appliances.

In order to ensure the safe functioning of various types of appliances, the standard covers the common risks related to them. It also emphasizes the possibility of additional requirements depending on the particular usage case. For instance, additional specifications can be needed for appliances used in automobiles, ships, or aircraft. In some nations, extra standards may also be specified by national health agencies, labor protection authorities, water supply authorities, and other similar entities.

It's vital to remember that this standard does not apply to appliances that are only made for industrial use or those that are intended to be used in environments with unique requirements, like those with corrosive or explosive atmospheres. Additionally, steam cookers, forced and steam convection ovens, gadgets for keeping food and utensils warm, commercial microwave ovens, and battery-operated appliances are not included.

Technical upgrades and adjustments have been made to this standard's seventh version, which was released in 2021 and is in line with other pertinent standards. In addition to other improvements, it clarifies testing procedures, adds new specifications, and moves certain materials. Unless a particular edition specifically prohibits its usage, the standard should be utilized in conjunction with the most recent edition of IEC 60335-1 and its revisions.
