IEC 60335-2-6:2014 PDF Download

The safety criteria for stationary electric cooking ranges, hobs, ovens, and comparable household appliances are the topic of the standard IEC 60335-2-6:2014. The specification covers appliances with rated voltages up to 480 volts for other appliances and 250 volts for single-phase appliances. It also covers the specifications for ovens used aboard ships.

Griddles, grills, induction hobs, induction wok elements, pyrolytic self-cleaning ovens, and steam ovens are among the appliances covered by the standard's scope. The goal of the standard is to address the typical risks connected to these products. The safety of people, especially youngsters, who have physical or mental impairments that preclude them from utilizing the appliances without supervision or instruction is not considered, though.

In comparison to the 2013 edition, the standard has undergone a number of revisions in 2014. The addition of specifications for steam ovens and ovens used on ships is one of these modifications. Additionally, it clarifies oven shelf design and testing, offers various oven surface temperature readings, and mentions stabilizing measures and cautions. The standard also provides a spillage test for built-in under-bench ovens and specifies representative times for specific appliances.

It is crucial to remember that IEC 60335-1:2010, which outlines general safety criteria for electrical appliances, should be read in conjunction with this standard.
