Foreword
This amendment to the European Standard EN 60335-1:2002 was prepared by the Technical
Committee CENELEC TC 61, Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
The text of the draft was submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure and was approved by
CENELEC as amendment A14 to EN 60335-1:2002 on 2010-04-14.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN and CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the amendment has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2010-11-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the amendment have to be withdrawn (dow) 2013-05-01
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European

Introduction
*)
Replace “73/23/EEC” by “2006/95/EC” and “98/37/EC” by “2006/42/EC ”.
Add the following footnote:
*)
Annex ZE has also to be applied for the verification of compliance of the relevant product to the Essential Health and Safety
Requirements (EHSR) of Directive 2006/42/EC. The application of EN 60335-1 alone does not give presumption of
conformity for a product. This is achieved by complying with the requirements of EN 60335-1 and the relevant Part 2, when
this Part 2 is also listed in the OJ under the Directive.
1 Scope
Replace the first two paragraphs, NOTE 1 and the first sentence of the third paragraph by:
This European Standard deals with the safety of electrical appliances and machines for household
environment and commercial purpose, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase
appliances and machines and 480 V for other appliances and machines.
NOTE Z1 Examples of appliance for household environment are appliances for typical housekeeping functions used in the
household environment that may also be used by non expert users for typical housekeeping functions:
• in shops, offices and other similar working environments;
• in farm houses;
• by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
• in bed and breakfast type environments.
NOTE Z2 Household environment includes the dwelling and its associated buildings, the garden, etc.
Appliances and machines intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in light industry and
on farms, and appliances and machines which are declared to be for commercial use by lay persons
are within the scope of this standard.
Additional requirements for such appliances are given in Annex ZE.
NOTE Z3 Examples of such appliances and machines are catering equipment, cleaning machines for commercial use, and
appliances for hairdressers.
NOTE Z4 Criteria applied for the allocation of products covered by standards in the EN 60335 series under either the Low
Voltage Directive (LVD) or the Machinery Directive (MD) are given for information in Annex ZF.
This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances and machines
that are encountered by all persons.

relevant requirements in the standards listed therein.
19 Abnormal operation
19.14 Modification:
Add the content of the note to the requirement as follows:
Appliances are operated under the conditions of Clause 11. Any contactor or relay contact that
operates under the conditions of Clause 11 is short-circuited. If a relay or contactor with more than
one contact is used, all contacts are short-circuited at the same time.
24 Components
24.1 Replace by:
Components shall comply with the safety requirements specified in the relevant standards as far as
they reasonably apply.
NOTE Z1 Compliance with the standard for the relevant component does not necessarily ensure compliance with the
requirements of this standard.
NOTE Z2 Motors are not required to comply with EN 60034-1.
Unless otherwise specified, the requirements of Clause 29 of this standard apply between live parts
of components and accessible parts of the appliance.
Unless otherwise specified, the requirements of 30.2 of this standard apply to parts of non-metallic
material in components including parts of non-metallic material supporting current-carrying
connections inside components.
Components that have not been previously tested or do not comply with the standard for the relevant
component are tested according to the requirements of 30.2 of this standard.
NOTE Z3 Components that have been previously tested and shown to comply with the resistance to fire requirements in the
standard for the relevant component need not be retested provided that:
– the severity specified in the component standard is not less than the severity specified in 30.2 of this standard,
and
– unless the preselection alternative is used, the test report for the component states whether it complied with the standard
for the relevant component with or without flame. Flames existing for a cumulative time not exceeding 2 s during the test
are ignored.
If the above two conditions are not satisfied, the component is tested as part of the appliance.
There are two levels of severity specified for appliances for which 30.2.3 is applicable.
Unless components have been previously tested and found to comply with the relevant standard for
the number of cycles specified, they are tested in accordance with 24.1.1 to 24.1.9.

– 5 – EN 60335-1:2002/A14:2010
Components that have not been separately tested and found to comply with the relevant standard,
components that are not marked or not used in accordance with their marking, are tested in
accordance with the conditions occurring in the appliance, the number of samples being that required
by the relevant standard.
NOTE Z4 For automatic controls, marking includes documentation and declaration as specified in Clause 7 of EN 60730-1.
Lampholders and starterholders that have not been previously tested and found to comply with the
relevant standard are tested as a part of the appliance and shall additionally comply with the gauging
and interchangeability requirements of the relevant standard under the conditions occurring in the
appliance. Where the relevant standard for lampholders and starterholders specifies gauging and
interchangeability requirements at elevated temperatures, the temperatures measured during the tests
of Clause 11 are used.
When no standard does exist for a component, there are no additional tests specified.

25.7 Modification:
Add the content of NOTE 1 to the requirement as follows:
Their properties shall be at least those of ordinary tough rubber sheathed cords (code designation
