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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 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. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This part of International Standard IEC 60335 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61: Safety of household and similar electrical appliances. This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 1997 and its amendment 1 (2000). It constitutes a technical revision. This bilingual version (2005-02) replaces the English version. SIST EN 60335-2-6:2003

60335-2-6 IEC:2005 – 11 – INTRODUCTION It has been assumed in the drafting of this International Standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced persons.
This standard recognizes the internationally accepted level of protection against hazards such as electrical, mechanical, thermal, fire and radiation of appliances when operated as in normal use taking into account the manufacturer's instructions. It also covers abnormal situations that can be expected in practice. This standard takes into account the requirements of IEC 60364 as far as possible so that there is compatibility with the wiring rules when the appliance is connected to the supply mains. However, national wiring rules may differ. If an appliance within the scope of this standard also incorporates functions that are covered by another part 2 of IEC 60335, the relevant part 2 is applied to each function separately, as far as is reasonable. If applicable, the influence of one function on the other is taken into account.
This standard is a product family standard dealing with the safety of appliances and takes precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.
An appliance that complies with the text of this standard will not necessarily be considered to comply with the safety principles of the standard if, when examined and tested, it is found to have other features that impair the level of safety covered by these requirements. An appliance employing materials or having forms of construction differing from those detailed in the requirements of this standard may be examined and tested according to the intent of the requirements and, if found to be substantially equivalent, may be considered to comply with the standard.
60335-2-6 IEC:2005 – 13 – HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES – SAFETY –
Part 2-6: Particular requirements for stationary cooking ranges,
hobs, ovens and similar appliances
1 Scope This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following. This International Standard deals with the safety of stationary electric cooking ranges, hobs, ovens and similar appliances for household 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. NOTE 101 Examples of appliances that are within the scope of this standard are – griddles; – grills; – induction hobs; – pyrolytic self-cleaning ovens; – steam ovens. 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; – playing with the appliance by young children. NOTE 102 Attention is drawn to the fact that – for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary; – in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities and similar authorities. NOTE 103 This standard does not apply to – appliances intended for commercial catering; – appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas); – grills, toasters and similar portable cooking appliances (IEC 60335-2-9); – microwave ovens (IEC 60335-2-25). 2 Normative references This clause of Part is applicable except as follows.

60335-2-6 IEC:2005 – 15 – 3 Definitions This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows. 3.1.6 Addition: NOTE 101 For appliances having more than three heating units per phase, a diversity factor is applied to the rated current or rated power input when determining the current used to establish the size of the terminals and the nominal cross-sectional area of the supply cord. The diversity factor F is calculated from the following formula, where N is the number of heating units per phase that can be energized together: NF0,650,35+= 3.1.9 Replacement: normal operation operation of the appliance as specified in 3.1.9.101 to 3.1.9.107 3.1.9.101 Hob elements, other than induction hob elements, are operated with vessels containing cold water. The vessel is made of unpolished commercial quality aluminium, has a flat bottom and is covered with a lid. Thermal controls are adjusted to their highest setting until the water boils and then adjusted so that the water boils gently. Water is added to maintain the level during boiling. NOTE 1 The lid is positioned so that steam does not affect the test. In case of doubt, vessels as specified in Figure 101 are used. Induction hob elements are operated with vessels as specified in Figure 102 that contain approximately half their capacity of cooking oil at room temperature. Thermal controls are adjusted to their highest setting until the oil temperature reaches 180 °C ± 4 °C and then adjusted so that this temperature is maintained. For all hob elements the diameter of the bottom of the vessel is approximately equal to the diameter of the cooking zone and the quantity of liquid is specified in Table 101. The vessel is positioned centrally on the cooking zone. NOTE 2 If several cooking zones are marked for one hob element, the most unfavourable zone is used for the test. NOTE 3 For non-circular cooking zones, the smallest non-circular vessel is used which will cover the cooking zone as far as possible, taking into account the hob rim and the other vessels. The quantity of liquid is determined on the basis of the minor diameter of the cooking zone. Table 101 – Quantity of liquid in the vessel Diameter of cooking zone mm Quantity of water or oil l

60335-2-6 IEC:2005 – 17 – 3.1.9.102 Ovens are operated empty with the door closed. Thermal controls are adjusted so that the mean temperature in the centre of the oven is maintained at
220 °C ± 4 °C for ovens with forced air circulation;
240 °C ± 4 °C for other ovens. NOTE If the temperature cannot be attained, the thermal control is adjusted to its highest setting. Ovens without thermal controls are switched on and off so that the temperature in the centre of the oven is maintained at 240 °C ± 15 °C. Steam ovens are operated in accordance with the instructions. Controls are adjusted to their highest setting until the cooking temperature is reached and then adjusted to the lowest setting that maintains this temperature. Steam generators intended to be filled by hand are filled according to the instructions, water being added to maintain the steam generation. Steam generators intended to be filled automatically are connected to a water supply, the pressure of which is set according to the instructions. The supply water has a temperature of
15 °C ± 5 °C for appliances to be connected to a cold water supply;
60 °C ± 5 °C or the temperature indicated in the instructions, whichever is the higher, for appliances to be connected to a hot water supply. Steam ovens are also operated while generating steam but with the thermal controls adjusted as for operation without steam. 3.1.9.103 Grills are operated empty with the grill pan and food supports in the most unfavourable position for normal use, the door and any other accessories being positioned in accordance with the instructions. In the absence of such instructions, the door and other accessories are placed in the most unfavourable position in which they may be left. Thermal controls are adjusted to their highest setting. However, if the instructions for grills incorporated in ovens specify a lower setting, this setting is used. Any reflectors intended to be placed above heating elements are in position. 3.1.9.104 Rotating spits in ovens or grills are operated with the load on the rotating spit as shown in Figure 103. The appliance is operated taking into account the instructions with regard to – the heating elements to be operated; – the setting of the thermal control; – the position of the door and grill pan.
