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.
International Standard IEC 60704-2-10 has been prepared by subcommittee 59K: Ovens and
microwave ovens, cooking ranges and similar appliances, of IEC technical committee 59:
Performance of household and similar electrical appliances.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2004 and constitutes
an adaptation to the third edition of IEC 60704-1(2010).
Compared to the first edition (2004) of this Part 2-10, this second edition doesn’t contain the
description of an appropriate test enclosure which has now been incorporated in Part 1.

FDIS Report on voting
59K/224/FDIS 59K/228/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
This Part 2-10 is intended to be used in conjunction with IEC 60704-1:2010 (3rd edition)
Household and similar electrical appliances – Test code for the determination of airborne
acoustical noise – Part 1: General requirements.
NOTE When “Part 1” is mentioned in this standard, it refers to IEC 60704-1.
This Part 2-10 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60704-1, so as to
establish the test code for electric cooking ranges, ovens, grills, microwave ovens and any
combination of these. When a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2-
10, that subclause is applicable as far as reasonable. Where this Part 2-10 states "addition",
"modification" or "replacement", the relevant requirements, test specifications or explanatory
matter in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
Subclauses, tables and figures that are numbered starting from 101 are additional to those in
Part 1.
Unless notes are in a new subclause or involve notes in Part 1, they are numbered starting
from 101, including those in a replaced clause or subclause.
Additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.
A list of all the parts in the IEC 60704 series, under the general title Household and similar
electrical appliances – Test code for the determination of airborne acoustical noise, can be
found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

INTRODUCTION
The measuring conditions specified in this Part 2-10 of IEC 60704 provide for sufficient
accuracy in determining the noise emitted and comparing the results of measurements taken
by different laboratories, whilst simulating as far as possible the practical use of electric
cooking ranges, ovens, grills, microwave ovens and any combination of these.
It is recommended to consider the determination of noise levels as part of a comprehensive
testing procedure covering many aspects of the properties and performance of household
appliances.
Compared to the first edition (2004) of this Part 2-10, the second edition doesn’t contain the
description of an appropriate test enclosure which has now been incorporated in Part 1.
NOTE As stated in the Introduction to IEC 60704-1, this test code is concerned with airborne noise only.

TEST CODE FOR THE DETERMINATION
OF AIRBORNE ACOUSTICAL NOISE –

Part 2-10: Particular requirements for electric cooking ranges,
ovens, grills, microwave ovens and any combination of these

1 Scope and object
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:
1.1 Scope
1.1.1 General
Addition:
These particular requirements apply to electric cooking ranges, ovens, grills, microwave
ovens and any combination of these for household and similar use.
NOTE 101 These particular requirements do not apply to hobs due to lack of standardised load (pans)
representative of normal use and ensuring a good repeatability of tests. For these applications, the loading and
operating conditions are under consideration.
This standard does not apply to appliances or parts of appliances that use gas energy.
1.1.2 Types of noise
Replacement:
The methods specified in ISO 3743-1, ISO 3743-2 and ISO 3744 can be used for measuring
noise emitted by electric cooking ranges, ovens, grills, microwave ovens and any combination
of these.
1.1.3 Size of the source
Replacement:
The method specified in ISO 3744 is applicable to noise sources of any size. When applying
ISO 3743-1 and ISO 3743-2, care should be taken that the maximum size of the appliance
under test fulfils the requirements specified in 1.3 of ISO 3743-1:1994 and ISO 3743-2:1994.
1.2 Object
Addition:
The methods described are specified for appliances without an operator present.
Requirements for the declaration of noise emission values are not within the scope of this
standard.
