Overview
The prEN IEC 60335-2-110:2025/prAA:2025 is a European draft amendment focusing on the safety of commercial microwave appliances with insertion or contacting applicators. This standard, developed by the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CLC/TC 61), sets forth particular safety requirements for commercial microwave ovens whose rated voltage does not exceed 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for others.
This amendment modifies the existing prEN IEC 60335-2-110:2025 and introduces additional safety instructions, especially concerning users such as children, persons with disabilities, and domestic animals to ensure safe appliance operation in commercial environments. It addresses reasonably foreseeable hazards to skilled and instructed persons using the microwave appliances, emphasizing strict usage conditions to prevent risks such as microwave leakage.
Key Topics
Scope and Application
The standard applies to commercial microwave appliances used with insertion or contacting applicators and covers rated voltages up to 250 V (single-phase) and 480 V (other appliances). It limits appliance usage to skilled or instructed persons due to the potential safety risks.Safety Instructions and Markings
Clear instructions are mandated to highlight that:- Persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities may use the appliance only under supervision or instruction.
- Operation should be carried out exclusively by skilled or instructed persons.
- Children and domestic animals must be supervised to prevent misuse or accidents.
- Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children for safety reasons.
Hazard Foreseeability
The standard focuses on risks foreseeable by all skilled users, instructed persons, and domestic animals. It stresses the need for limitations on usage and appropriate supervision to mitigate high risks like microwave leakage.Modifications and Updates
The amendment revises existing clauses on marking, instructions, and scope, introducing new safety protocols and clarifying appliance usage conditions. It supplements and modifies relevant parts of EN IEC 60335-1 and EN IEC 60335-2-110.Referenced Standards
It references various international and European standards related to mechanical properties of fasteners, safety signs, and household electrical appliance safety, ensuring comprehensive safety alignment.
Applications
This standard specifically targets commercial microwave ovens with insertion or contacting applicators used in environments such as:
- Food service and hospitality industries (restaurants, catering)
- Commercial kitchens where microwave heating is part of food preparation
- Industrial food processing facilities utilizing microwave technology
By conforming to this standard, manufacturers and operators ensure:
- Enhanced user safety during microwave heating processes
- Clear guidelines for safe operation by trained personnel
- Minimization of hazards to vulnerable individuals and animals
- Compliance with European safety regulations for household and similar electrical appliances
Related Standards
For comprehensive safety compliance, prEN IEC 60335-2-110:2025/prAA:2025 references and works alongside key standards including:
- EN IEC 60335-1:2023 – General safety requirements for household and similar electrical appliances.
- EN IEC 60335-2-90 – Particular requirements for commercial microwave ovens.
- ISO 898-1, ISO 3506 series – Mechanical properties of steel and stainless steel fasteners used in appliance assembly.
- ISO 3864-1 and ISO 7010 – Safety colors and graphical safety signs critical for appliance labeling.
- IEC 60335-2-25, IEC 60519-6, IEC 60601-1, IEC 61010 – Standards governing safety in electrical appliances, heating equipment, and medical electrical equipment that complement appliance safety frameworks.
This draft amendment underscores the importance of targeted safety measures and proper user instructions to safeguard operators and bystanders from risks related to commercial microwave appliances in line with European regulatory requirements. Manufacturers and users in commercial settings should closely monitor this evolving standard to maintain compliance and safety excellence.
