CLC - European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization
CENELEC is the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization and is responsible for standardization in the electrotechnical engineering field. CENELEC prepares voluntary standards, which help facilitate trade between countries, create new markets, cut compliance costs and support the development of a Single European Market.
CENELEC is a European regional standards organization that together with its sister organizations CEN, the European Committee for Standardization, and ETSI, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute, compose the so-called and known European Standards Organizations (ESOs) that are officially recognised by the European Commission and act as a European platform through which European Standards are developed.
This European Standard deals with the safety of microwave appliances intended for commercial use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances connected between one phase and neutral and 480 V for other appliances.

This document specifies methods of measurement of electrical power in networked standby mode and the reporting of the results for edge equipment.
The measurement of power and energy use in non-active mode, other than networked standby mode, is covered by IEC 62301 [1], including the input voltage range.
This document applies to edge equipment that is powered by:
– low voltage mains AC power (LV ≤ 1 000 V AC), or
– an external power supply that provides low voltage (LV ≤ 1 000 V) or extra low voltage (ELV ≤ 50 V) AC or DC power, or
– a separate source of extra low voltage DC power (ELV ≤ 50 V DC), or
– an internal main battery.
Conditions that are outside the scope of this document are as follows:
– active modes (primary function),
– other non-active modes (which are either covered by IEC 62301 [1] or by specific product group standards),
– conditions where main batteries are being charged other than in maintenance mode,
– disconnected condition of the equipment.
This document applies to the following product groups where a networked standby mode is present:
– edge equipment with a network reactivation function, such as household appliances, information technology equipment, audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment,
– digital radio receivers with an emergency warning function,
– gas burning equipment with electrical components.
NOTE 1 The measurements of power, energy use and performance of products during their intended use (when performing their primary functions) are generally specified in product standards and are not covered by this document.
NOTE 2 Networked standby mode for lighting equipment and the measurement of power is specified in IEC 63103 [4].
NOTE 3 Interconnecting equipment (equipment that provides network infrastructure and function) is outside the scope of this document. Measurement of electrical power in networked standby mode for interconnecting equipment is the subject of ETSI standard EN 303 423 [5].
This document also provides a method to test power management and to test whether it is possible to deactivate wireless network connection(s).
NOTE 4 Edge equipment can also include auxiliary batteries.
This group EE publication is primarily intended to be used as an EE standard for the products mentioned in the scope, but is also intended to be used by TCs in the preparation of publications for products which are included in the boundary mentioned in the scope of this document.
