Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-3: Particular requirements for electric irons
IEC 60335-2-3:2012 deals with the safety of electric dry irons and steam irons, including those with a separate water reservoir or boiler having a capacity not exceeding 5 l, for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. Appliances not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances, which are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction or children playing with the appliance. This standard does not apply to ironers (IEC 60335-2-44); appliances designed exclusively for industrial purposes or 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). This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2002 including its Amendment 1 (2004) and its Amendment 2 (2008). It constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fifth edition of IEC 60335-2-3 are as follows (minor changes are not listed): - some notes have been converted to normative text (20.1, 21.102, 22.106, 24.4, 25.5, 25.14); - hoses that are subjected to the pressure test have been identified (22.7) and - the types of flexible cord that can be used are clarified (25.7). The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of publication.

Sicherheit elektrischer Geräte für den Hausgebrauch und ähnliche Zwecke - Teil 2-3: Besondere Anforderungen für elektrische Bügeleisen
Appareils électrodomestiques et analogues - Sécurité - Partie 2-3: Exigences particulières pour les fers à repasser électriques
La CEI 60335-2-3:2012 traite de la sécurité des fers à repasser électriques à sec et des fers à vapeur, y compris ceux avec un réservoir d'eau ou un bouilleur séparé ayant une capacité n'excédant pas 5 l, pour usages domestiques et analogues, la tension assignée des appareils n'étant pas supérieure à 250 V. Les appareils qui ne sont pas destinés à un usage domestique normal mais qui peuvent néanmoins constituer une source de danger pour le public, tels que les appareils destinés à être utilisés par des usagers non avertis dans les magasins, chez les artisans et dans les fermes, sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme. Dans la mesure du possible, la présente norme traite des risques ordinaires présentés par les appareils, encourus par tous les individus à l'intérieur et autour de l'habitation. Cependant, cette norme ne tient pas compte en general; des personnes (y compris des enfants) dont les capacités physiques, sensorielles ou mentales; ou le manque d'expérience et de connaissance les empêchent d'utiliser l'appareil en toute sécurité sans surveillance ou instruction de l'utilisation de l'appareil comme jouet par des enfants. La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux machines à repasser (CEI 60335-2-44); aux appareils prévus exclusivement pour des usages industriels; aux appareils destinés à être utilisés dans des locaux présentant des conditions particulières, telles que la présence d'une atmosphère corrosive ou explosive (poussière, vapeur ou gaz). Cette sixième édition annule et remplace la cinquième édition parue en 2002, y compris son Amendement 1 (2004) et son Amendement 2 (2008). Elle constitue une révision technique. Les principaux changements dans cette édition par rapport à la cinquième édition de la CEI 60335-2-3 sont les suivants (les changements mineurs ne sont pas listés): - Plusieurs notes ont été converties en texte normatif (20.1, 21.102, 22.106, 24.4, 25.5, 25.14); - Les conduits qui sont soumis à l'essai de pression ont été identifiés (22.7); - Les types de câbles souples qui peuvent être utilisés sont explicités (25.7). L'attention des Comités Nationaux est attirée sur le fait que les fabricants d'appareils et les organismes d'essai peuvent avoir besoin d'une période transitoire après la publication d'une nouvelle publication CEI, ou d'une publication amendée ou révisée, pour fabriquer des produits conformes aux nouvelles exigences et pour adapter leurs équipements aux nouveaux essais ou aux essais révisés. Le comité recommande que le contenu de l'amendement 1 soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 12 mois et au plus tard 36 mois après la date de publication.

Gospodinjski in podobni električni aparati - Varnost - 2-3. del: Posebne zahteve za električne likalnike
Ta standard obravnava varnost električnih suhih in parnih likalnikov, vključno z likalniki z ločenim vodnim rezervoarjem ali grelcem, katerega prostornina ne presega 5 l, za gospodinjstvo in podobno uporabo, pri čemer njihova nazivna napetost ne presega 250 V. Področje uporabe tega standarda zajema aparate, ki niso namenjeni za običajno gospodinjsko uporabo, vendar so lahko vir nevarnosti za javnost, kot so aparati, namenjeni za laično uporabo v trgovinah, lahki industriji in na kmetijah. Ta standard v največji možni meri obravnava splošne nevarnosti, ki jih predstavljajo aparati ter s katerimi se srečujejo osebe doma in v okolici doma. Vendar na splošno ne upošteva: – oseb (vključno z otroki), ki zaradi – fizičnih, čutilnih ali duševnih zmožnosti ali – neizkušenosti in neznanja aparata ne morejo varno uporabljati brez nadzora ali navodil; – otrok, ki se igrajo z aparatom.

The following surfaces or elements shall not be taken into consideration:
• hot functional surface: surface which is intentionally heated by an internal heat source and which has to be hot to carry
out the function for which the equipment is intended to be used;
EXAMPLE The soleplate of an iron regardless of the thickness of the soleplate, including the metallic side parts and
metallic functional ironing tips, if any;
• adjacent surface: a surface adjacent to a functional surface. The adjacent surface and the functional surface may consist
of the same piece of material or are in thermal contact and have similar thermal properties. The adjacent surface is not
heated intentionally during use of the product. However, as it is adjacent to the functional surface and may become hot
through conduction, its temperature will be in the range between the functional and a touchable surface.
Examples are: the stand of an iron on a separated boiler and surface of the enclosure immediately surrounding the water
heater enclosure plus 50 mm on all sides of a separated boiler, any part of the enclosure of an iron surrounding the
soleplate plus 25 mm.
• handles or control knobs including keypads, keyboards and the like: part of the equipment that a user needs to touch to
operate or adjust the equipment
The equipment has to be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
b
When the thickness of the plastic coating does not exceed 0,3 mm, the temperature rise limits of the coated metal or of glass
and ceramic material apply.
c
When, due to the construction or dimensional limitations of the appliance, the required values cannot be met, the maximum
temperature rise shall not be higher than twice the values indicated. In such cases, a warning shall be marked on the relevant
surface of the appliance.
d
Metal is considered coated when a coating having a minimum thickness of 80 µm made by enamel or non substantially plastic
coating is used.
e
The temperature rise limit of plastic also applies for plastic material having a metal finish of thickness less than 0,1 mm.
Add the following new subclause:
11.Z101 For the measurement of temperature rises, the instructions from the manufacturer on where
the appliance has to be situated during normal operations shall be followed.
Temperature rises are not measured on the underside of appliances intended to be used on a working
surface or floor.
20 Stability and mechanical hazards
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:
20.1 Replace “an angle of 10°” by “an angle of 15°”.
22 Construction
Add a new subclause:
22.Z101 For irons fitted with a supply cord, other than those with a separate reservoir or boiler, the free
length of the supply cord, measured between the point where the cord or the cord guard enters the iron
and the point where the cord or cord guard enters the plug, shall be more then 1,9 m.
