Overview
EN 60335-2-61:2003/A1:2005 is a CENELEC amendment to the European adoption of IEC 60335-2-61. It addresses safety aspects specific to thermal‑storage room heaters (storage heaters) as part of the wider series on the safety of household and similar electrical appliances. Amendment A1 (approved 2005‑05‑01) updates the 2003 European standard and adds/changes normative references and clauses to reflect contemporary safety and marking requirements.
Note: the extract does not include the full scope text; the standard itself contains detailed definitions, requirements and test criteria for storage heaters.
Key topics and requirements
- Particular safety requirements for thermal‑storage room heaters within the IEC/EN 60335 family (i.e., measures beyond general appliance safety rules).
- Amendment A1 provisions: modifies or supplements clauses of EN 60335‑2‑61:2003; approved by CENELEC without national deviations.
- Normative references: A notable addition in A1 is ISO 3864‑1 (graphical symbols - safety colours and safety signs - design principles), indicating updated requirements for safety markings and symbols on appliances.
- Regulatory timeline: national implementation deadline (dop) 2006‑02‑01; conflicting national standards to be withdrawn by 2008‑05‑01.
- Harmonization and language: the amendment exists in English, French and German and is intended for uniform adoption by CENELEC members.
Because the extract is an amendment notice, it does not reproduce technical test methods or numerical limits. The full EN/IEC document contains the specific construction, insulation, marking, temperature and performance tests, and durability checks required for compliance.
Applications
- Manufacturers and product designers of thermal‑storage room heaters use EN 60335‑2‑61/A1 to design safe products that meet European safety expectations.
- Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies reference this standard when performing safety tests and issuing certifications.
- Regulatory authorities and market surveillance teams rely on the standard to assess compliance with appliance safety regulations.
- Procurement specialists and installers can use the standard reference to verify that heaters meet recognized safety norms before purchase or installation.
