FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

INTRODUCTION
The measuring conditions specified in this Part 2-13 provide for sufficient accuracy in
determining the noise emitted and comparing the results of measurements taken by different
laboratories, whilst simulating as far as possible the practical use of household range hoods.
It is recommended to consider the determination of noise levels as part of a comprehensive
testing procedure covering many aspects of the properties and performance of household
range hoods.
Compared to the first edition (2000) of this Part 2-13, the second edition doesn’t contain the
description of an appropriate test enclosure which has now been incorporated in Part 1. The
scope of this Part 2-13 has been extended to range hoods with an external fan. Furthermore
the values of standard deviations of sound power levels determined according to this part are
given.
In case of unavailability of an acoustical environment which is specified in Clause 4 of
ISO 3743-1, ISO 3743-2 and ISO 3744 alternatively the sound power of range hoods can be
determined according to Annex AA using the sound intensity method specified in ISO 9614-1
and ISO 9614-2. This method is not suitable if the source under test has significant noise over
4,0 kHz for octave band frequencies or 6,3 kHz for one-third octave band frequencies. Sound
intensity method for the determination of sound power levels shall not be used for the purpose
of verification.
NOTE As stated in the introduction to IEC 60704-1, this test code is concerned with airborne noise only.
