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.
9) IEC draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). IEC takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in
respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s), which
may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent
the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at https://patents.iec.ch. IEC
shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This consolidated version of the official IEC Standard and its amendment has been
prepared for user convenience.
IEC 60335-2-36 edition 7.1 contains the seventh edition (2021-12) [documents

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.
Guidance documents concerning the application of the safety requirements for appliances can
be accessed via TC 61 supporting documents on the IEC website
https://www.iec.ch/tc61/supportingdocuments
This information is given for the convenience of users of this International Standard and does
not constitute a replacement for the normative text in this standard.
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 and takes into account the way in which electromagnetic
phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.
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.
When a Part 2 standard does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with
in Part 1, Part 1 applies.
NOTE 1 This means that the technical committees responsible for the Part 2 standards have determined that it is
not necessary to specify particular requirements for the appliance in question over and above the general
requirements.
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.
NOTE 2 Horizontal publications, basic safety publications and group safety publications covering a hazard are not
applicable since they have been taken into consideration when developing the general and particular requirements
for the IEC 60335 series of standards.
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.
NOTE 3 Standards dealing with non-safety aspects of household appliances are:
– IEC standards published by TC 59 concerning methods for measuring performance;
– CISPR 11, CISPR 14-1 and relevant IEC 61000-3 series standards concerning electromagnetic emissions;
– CISPR 14-2 concerning electromagnetic immunity;
– IEC standards published by TC 111 concerning environmental matters.

HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES –
SAFETY –
Part 2-36: Particular requirements for commercial electric
cooking ranges, ovens, hobs and hob elements

1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This part of IEC 60335 deals with the safety of electrically operated commercial cooking and
baking ranges, ovens, hobs, hob elements and similar appliances, 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 including direct current (DC) supplied appliances.
These appliances are not intended for household and similar purposes. They are used for
commercial processing of food in areas not open to the public, for example in kitchens of
restaurants, canteens, hospitals and in commercial enterprises such as bakeries and
butcheries.
The electrical part of appliances making use of other forms of energy is also within the scope
of this standard.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by these types
of appliances.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional
requirements can 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;
– in many countries, additional requirements are specified for pressure appliances.
This standard does not apply to
– appliances designed exclusively for industrial purposes;
– 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);
– appliances for continuous mass production of food;
– steam cookers, forced and steam convection ovens (IEC 60335-2-42);
– appliances for keeping food and crockery warm (IEC 60335-2-49);
– commercial microwave ovens (IEC 60335-2-90);.
– battery-operated appliances.

concavity not exceeding 0,1 mm. The pan or pans shall cover the cooking zone to the greatest
extent possible.
The pan or pans are covered with a lid. The controls are set at maximum until the water boils
and then adjusted to maintain boiling. Water is added to maintain the water level during boiling.
Induction heating sources beneath a glass-ceramic or similar material are operated with the
pan or pans recommended by the manufacturer.
If one pan is used, it shall cover as closely as possible, but not less than, the full area of the
cooking zone. The pan is positioned centrally.
For non-circular cooking zones, a combination of the smallest number of pans is chosen to
cover as much as possible the area of the cooking zone.
The pan or pans in each case are filled with initially cold frying oil to a height of 30 mm ± 5 mm.
The controls are set at maximum until the temperature of the oil attains a value of 180 °C and
then adjusted to maintain the oil at a temperature of 180 °C ± 15 °C. The oil temperature is
measured 10 mm above the centre of the bottom of the vessel.
A further test is made using initially cold water, the pan(s) being filled to a height of
60 mm ± 10 mm. The pan or pans are covered with a lid. The controls are set at maximum until
the water boils and then adjusted to maintain boiling. Water is added to maintain the water level
during boiling.
The condition providing the most unfavourable results (oil or water) is used.
Ovens are operated with no load and with the controls set so that the mean value of the
temperature over the thermostat cycle at the geometric centre of the usable space in the interior
of the oven is maintained at 240 °C ± 4 °C. Stepped controls are set so that this temperature is
240 °C ± 15 °C. For ovens that are capable of attaining temperatures in excess of 290 °C, the
controls are set so that the temperature is 50 °C ± 4 °C below the maximum temperature
attainable. For ovens that are unable to attain a temperature of 240 °C, the controls are set at
maximum.
Griddle plates are operated with no load and with the controls set so as to give the
temperatures set out below, the temperature being measured at the hottest point of each
controlled cooking surface. Stepped controls are set to the first position that gives a temperature
equal to or greater than 275 °C. Cycling controls are set so that the mean value of the
temperature over the cycle is 275 °C ± 5 °C. If this temperature cannot be reached, the control
is set at maximum.

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.
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.
IEC 60335-2-36 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61: Safety of household and
similar electrical appliances. It is an International Standard.
This seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2017. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous

Draft Report on voting
61/6377/FDIS 61/6427/RVD
Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in
the above table.
The language used for the development of this International Standard is English.
This document was drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, and developed in
accordance with ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 and ISO/IEC Directives, IEC Supplement, available
at www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs. The main document types developed by IEC are
described in greater detail at www.iec.ch/standardsdev/publications.
A list of all parts in the IEC 60335 series, published under the general title Household and
similar electrical appliances – Safety, can be found on the IEC website.
This Part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its

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.
Guidance documents concerning the application of the safety requirements for appliances can
be accessed via TC 61 supporting documents on the IEC website
https://www.iec.ch/tc61/supportingdocuments
This information is given for the convenience of users of this International Standard and does
not constitute a replacement for the normative text in this standard.
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 and takes into account the way in which electromagnetic
phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.
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.
When a Part 2 standard does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with
in Part 1, Part 1 applies.
NOTE 1 This means that the technical committees responsible for the Part 2 standards have determined that it is
not necessary to specify particular requirements for the appliance in question over and above the general
requirements.
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.
NOTE 2 Horizontal publications, basic safety publications and group safety publications covering a hazard are not
applicable since they have been taken into consideration when developing the general and particular requirements
for the IEC 60335 series of standards.
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.
NOTE 3 Standards dealing with non-safety aspects of household appliances are:
– IEC standards published by TC 59 concerning methods for measuring performance;
– CISPR 11, CISPR 14-1 and relevant IEC 61000-3 series standards concerning electromagnetic emissions;
– CISPR 14-2 concerning electromagnetic immunity;
– IEC standards published by TC 111 concerning environmental matters.

HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES –
SAFETY –
Part 2-36: Particular requirements for commercial electric
cooking ranges, ovens, hobs and hob elements

1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This part of IEC 60335 deals with the safety of electrically operated commercial cooking and
baking ranges, ovens, hobs, hob elements and similar appliances, 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.
These appliances are not intended for household and similar purposes. They are used for
commercial processing of food in areas not open to the public, for example in kitchens of
restaurants, canteens, hospitals and in commercial enterprises such as bakeries and
butcheries.
The electrical part of appliances making use of other forms of energy is also within the scope
of this standard.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by these types
of appliances.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional
requirements can 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;
– in many countries, additional requirements are specified for pressure appliances.
This standard does not apply to
– appliances designed exclusively for industrial purposes;
– 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);
– appliances for continuous mass production of food;
– steam cookers, forced and steam convection ovens (IEC 60335-2-42);
– appliances for keeping food and crockery warm (IEC 60335-2-49);
– commercial microwave ovens (IEC 60335-2-90);
– battery-operated appliances.

3.1 Definitions relating to physical characteristics
3.1.4 Addition:
Note 101 to entry: The rated power input is the sum of the power inputs of all the individual elements in the appliance
that can be on at one time; where there are several such combinations possible, that giving the highest power input
is used in determining the rated power input.
3.1.9 Replacement:
operation of the appliance under the following conditions:
Solid hob elements are operated with no load and sheathed hob elements are operated with
a load made of dull black, cold or hot rolled steel, 9 mm to 10 mm thick, that covers not less
than 90 % and not more than 100 % of the element surface. The hob elements are operated
with the controls set to give the temperatures as set out below, the temperature being measured
at the geometrical centre or the hottest point of the solid element or load, if the element is
unevenly heated.
Stepped controls are set to the first position that gives a temperature equal to or greater
than 275 °C. Cycling controls are set so that the mean value of the temperature over the cycle
is 275 °C ± 5 °C. If this temperature cannot be reached, the control is set at the maximum.
Non-induction heating sources beneath a glass-ceramic or similar material are operated with a
pan or pans containing initially cold water, the pan(s) being filled to a height of 60 mm ± 10 mm.
The pan or pans are of aluminium, of ordinary quality, not brightly polished, with a base
concavity not exceeding 0,1 mm. The pan or pans shall cover the cooking zone to the greatest
extent possible.
The pan or pans are covered with a lid. The controls are set at maximum until the water boils
and then adjusted to maintain boiling. Water is added to maintain the water level during boiling.

– 10 – IEC 60335-2-36:2021 © IEC 2021
Induction heating sources beneath a glass-ceramic or similar material are operated with the
pan or pans recommended by the manufacturer.
If one pan is used, it shall cover as closely as possible, but not less than, the full area of the
cooking zone. The pan is positioned centrally.
For non-circular cooking zones, a combination of the smallest number of pans is chosen to
cover as much as possible the area of the cooking zone.
The pan or pans in each case are filled with initially cold frying oil to a height of 30 mm ± 5 mm.
The controls are set at maximum until the temperature of the oil attains a value of 180 °C and
then adjusted to maintain the oil at a temperature of 180 °C ± 15 °C. The oil temperature is
measured 10 mm above the centre of the bottom of the vessel.
A further test is made using initially cold water, the pan(s) being filled to a height of
60 mm ± 10 mm. The pan or pans are covered with a lid. The controls are set at maximum until
the water boils and then adjusted to maintain boiling. Water is added to maintain the water level
during boiling.
The condition providing the most unfavourable results (oil or water) is used.
Ovens are operated with no load and with the controls set so that the mean value of the
temperature over the thermostat cycle at the geometric centre of the usable space in the interior
of the oven is maintained at 240 °C ± 4 °C. Stepped controls are set so that this temperature is
240 °C ± 15 °C. For ovens that are capable of attaining temperatures in excess of 290 °C, the
controls are set so that the temperature is 50 °C ± 4 °C below the maximum temperature
attainable. For ovens that are unable to attain a temperature of 240 °C, the controls are set at
maximum.
Griddle plates are operated with no load and with the controls set so as to give the
temperatures set out below, the temperature being measured at the hottest point of each
controlled cooking surface. Stepped controls are set to the first position that gives a temperature
equal to or greater than 275 °C. Cycling controls are set so that the mean value of the
temperature over the cycle is 275 °C ± 5 °C. If this temperature cannot be reached, the control
is set at maximum.
Motors and detachable electrical parts incorporated in the appliance are operated under the
most unfavourable conditions that can be expected in normal use taking into account the
manufacturer's instructions.
