IEC 60436:2015 applies to electric dishwashers for household and similar use that are supplied with hot and/or cold water. The object is to state and define the principal performance characteristics of electric dishwashers for household and similar use and to describe the standard methods of measuring these characteristics. This standard is concerned neither with safety nor with minimum performance requirements. This edition constitutes a technical revision and includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Addition of a specification of the reference dishwasher G1222, addition of the microwave oven 752C, inclusion of standby/low power modes and updated cutlery and tableware items.
b) Combined cleaning and drying: combining the cleaning and drying performance evaluations into one test, along with the energy and water consumption evaluation, prevents an opportunity for circumvention if tests were performed separately. A dishwasher can detect whether soil is present (cleaning evaluation) or not (drying evaluation) and adjust the cycle to favour performance; combining the tests addresses this.
c) New dish load items: new dish load items were incorporated which reflect consumer use. New items are: stainless pots, coffee mugs, melamine plastic items, and glass bowl. The new load items provide different shapes which challenge a dishwasher water spray patterns and provide additional surfaces for soil removal assessment.
d) Detergent: a new detergent "D" is specified which mirrors current tablet formulations available on the market. Detergent type D is phosphate free, with percarbonate instead of perborate bleach and more active enzymes.
e) Repeatability and reproducibility improvements.
f) Addition of annexes for the evaluation of soil sensing programmes, rinsing performance, dishwasher filtration and of an annex on the inlet water temperature influence on energy consumption.

These particular requirements apply to single unit electric dishwashers for household and similar use, with or without automatic programme control, for cold and/or warm water supply, for detachable or permanent connection to water supply or sewage systems, intended for placing on the floor against a wall, for building-in or placing under a counter, a kitchen worktop or under a sink, for wall-mounting or on a counter.

1.1   Equipment in the scope of this standard
This European Standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption in networked standby and the reporting of the results for edge equipment.
Power consumption in standby (other than networked standby) is covered by EN 50564, including the input voltage range.
This European Standard also provides a method to test power management and whether it is possible to deactivate wireless network connection(s).
NOTE 1   This standard has been written in particular to support Commission Regulation (EU) No 801/2013 for the measurement of energy consumption in networked standby. This standard applies to electrical products with a rated input voltage of 230 V a.c. for single phase products and 400 V a.c. for three phase products.
NOTE 2   The measurement of energy consumption and performance of products during intended use are generally specified in product standards and are not covered by this standard.
NOTE 3   The term "products" in this standard includes household appliances or information technology products, consumer electronics, audio, video and multimedia systems; however the measurement methodology could be applied to other products.
Where this standard is referenced by more specific standards or procedures, these should define and name the relevant conditions to which this test procedure is applied.
1.2   Equipment not in the scope of this standard
This European Standard does not apply to the measurement of electrical power consumption in networked standby for interconnecting equipment.
NOTE   Measurement of electrical power consumption in networked standby for interconnecting equipment is the subject of ETSI standard EN 303 423 "Environmental Engineering (EE) - Electrical and electronic household and office equipment; Measurement of networked standby power consumption for interconnecting equipment".

IEC 60705:2010 applies to microwave ovens for household use. It also applies to combination microwave ovens. This standard defines the main performance characteristics of household microwave ovens which are of interest to the user, and it specifies methods for measuring these characteristics. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 1999, its amendment 1 (2004) and its amendment 2 (2006), and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes from the previous edition are as follows:  - the definition of rounding is given in 3.5;  - the usable volume and the overall volume are respectively determined in 7.2 and 7.3.

This International Standard describes the preparation of four types of water of different hardness, conductivity and alkalinity, intended to be used for testing the performance of household appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, tumble dryers, steam irons etc. It defines the characteristics of these waters and establishes various methods to be used for obtaining them. It also includes specifications for required measurements.

This European Standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption and the reporting of the results for a range of electrical and electronic household and office equipment, hereafter referred to as products.
This standard
−addresses issues associated with measuring electrical power, in particular low power (in the order of a few Watts or less), consumed by mains powered products,
−describes in detail the requirements for testing single phase products with a rated input voltage in the range of 100 V a.c. to 250 V a.c. but it may, with some adaptations, also be used with three phase products,
−may also be of assistance in determining the energy efficiency of products in conjunction with other, more specific, product standards.
The value of energy consumed will depend on the operating mode of the product under test, for instance whether the equipment is in an off mode, in a standby mode or in an active mode. This standard does not specify these modes and so it is not possible to use this standard on its own. Instead, it provides a method of measurement with a variety of modes which are defined elsewhere.
This standard does not
−specify safety requirements,
−specify minimum performance requirements,
−set maximum limits on power or energy consumption,
−contain limit values or procedures for verifying compliance with regulatory requirements.
NOTE Z1 This standard has been written in particular to support EC Commission Regulation n° 1275/2008 for the measurement of off mode and standby mode power consumption. This standard specifies methods of measurement of electrical power consumption in standby mode(s) and other low power modes (off mode), as applicable.
NOTE Z2 This standard is applicable to electrical products with a rated input voltage of 230 V a.c. for single phase products and 400 V a.c. for three phase products.
NOTE Z3 The measurement of energy consumption and performance of products during intended use are generally specified in more specific product standards and are not covered by this standard.
NOTE Z4 The term “products” in this standard includes household appliances or information technology products, consumer electronics, audio, video and multimedia systems, however the measurement methodology could be applied to other products.
NOTE Z5 Where this standard is referenced by more specific standards or procedures, these should define and name the relevant conditions to which this test procedure is applied.

A bulk sample is reduced by a mechanical process until a reduced sample is obtained. The reduced sample may be used for the following purposes: a) the preparation of a final sample or a laboratory sample of mass greater than 250 g from a blended bulk sample of mass greater than 500 g; b) the preparation of several equivalent laboratory samples and/or reference samples and/or storage samples, each of a mass greater than 250 g, from a final sample; c) the preparation of a test sample from a loboratory sample.
