IEC 63437:2025 specifies the essential characteristics of off grid and unreliable grid refrigerating appliances for domestic and similar use or light commercial use, cooled by internal natural or forced air convection. It defines input voltage supply signals for appliances designed for unreliable grid and off grid conditions.
An unreliable grid condition can be the result of disturbances on the electricity supply, such as power outages, or issues with power quality, such as voltage spikes and surges, that could cause performance challenges to refrigerating appliances. An off grid supply, in this context, for example is generated by a solar panel or a stand-alone solar home system that is not connected to the power grid. This document simulates the power characteristics in off grid and unreliable grid conditions but does not specify requirements or test procedures to assess performance of generators, solar panels, solar home system or any other system generating a supply signal.
The supply signals defined in this document can also be used for evaluation of the performance of other refrigerating appliances such as medical or laboratory appliances, professional storage refrigerators or freezers, refrigerated display cabinets, beverage coolers or ice cream freezers.
This document specifies the test methods for measuring the functional performance characteristics and requirements. This document does not apply to refrigerating appliances designed for a good quality and stable electricity grid and refrigerating appliances utilising fuelled absorption cooling technology.
This document is applicable to any refrigerating appliance for domestic or light commercial use that has a rated performance to properly operate off grid or under unreliable grid operating conditions resisting power interruptions and supply variations. Off grid and unreliable grid refrigerating appliances are appliances intended to for use with standalone or intermittent or distorted electrical mains. Electrical mains supply is assumed to be alternating current (AC) for unreliable grid or direct current (DC) for off grid. This document is also applicable to hybrid refrigerating appliances.

IEC 62552-3:2015 specifies the essential characteristics of household and similar refrigerating appliances cooled by internal natural convection or forced air circulation, and establishes test methods for checking these characteristics. This part of IEC 62552 describes the methods for the determination of energy consumption characteristics and defines how these can be assembled to estimate energy consumption under different usage and climate conditions. This part of IEC 62552 also defines the determination of volume.
- All parts of the standard have been largely rewritten and updated to cope with new testing requirements, new product configurations, the advent of electronic product controls and computer based test-room data collection and processing equipment.
- For more efficient analysis and to better characterise the key product characteristics under different operating conditions, the test data from many of the energy tests in Part 3 (this part) is now split into components (such as steady state operation and defrost and recovery). The approach to determination of energy consumption has been completely revised, with many internal checks now included to ensure that data complying with the requirements of the standard is as accurate as possible and of high quality.
- Part 3 (this part) now provides a method to quantify each of the relevant energy components and approaches on how these can be combined to estimate energy under different conditions on the expectation that different regions will select components and weightings that are most applicable when setting both their local performance and energy efficiency criteria while using a single set of global test measurements.
- For energy consumption measurements in Part 3 (this part), no thermal mass (test packages) is included in any compartment and compartment temperatures are based on the average of air temperature sensors (compared to the temperature in the warmest test package). There are also significant differences in the position of temperature sensors in unfrozen compartments.
- The energy consumption test in Part 3 (this part) now has two specified ambient temperatures (16°C and 32°C).
- A load processing energy efficiency test has been added in Part 3 (this part).
- Tests (both performance (Part 2) and energy (Part 3 (this part)) have been added for wine storage appliances.

This part of IEC 63237 provides a method of standardizing the descriptions of household electrical appliances.
The aims of this standard are
- to define a common language for customers and suppliers through the publication of classes, represented by properties and their attributes;
- enable electronic data exchange by machines (including information technology systems, see M2M communication);
- to optimize workflows between customers and suppliers as well as in processes such as engineering, development and purchasing within their own organizations;
- to offer also a dictionary to legislators and
- to reduce transaction costs.
The standard describes household electrical appliances using properties and makes the associated properties available in the IEC Common Data Dictionary (IEC CDD).
Furthermore, this document provides rules, methods and the generic data structure for product specific classification standards and on how to produce a reference dictionary based on IEC 61360 Series. This in turn creates a descriptive basis of company internal and external descriptions of household electrical appliances based on structured classes and lists of properties.
NOTE The terms "class", "properties" and "attributes" are defined in Clause 3 following the established definitions in IEC and ISO documents.

IEC 60335-2-111:2015 deals with the safety of electric ondol-mattresses for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. This standard also applies to control units supplied with the appliance. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used in community spas or by persons in cold ambient temperatures, are within the scope of this standard. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account the use of appliances by young children or infirm persons without supervision or children playing with the appliance. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard. The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this standard be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of its publication. Key words: ondol mattress, heating element, non-flexible heated part This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60335-1:2013.
