Overview
IEC 60335-1:2010/AMD1:2013 is an important amendment to the international standard concerning the safety of household and similar electrical appliances. Published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), this amendment updates Part 1 of IEC 60335-1, which provides the general safety requirements that all such appliances must meet. It encompasses revised definitions, testing methods, marking requirements, and safety measures necessary to ensure user protection during appliance operation under normal and abnormal conditions.
This amendment applies broadly to electrical appliances powered by mains or battery, including dual supply appliances with battery operation modes. It addresses safety aspects such as insulation, leakage current, temperature rise limits, and protective earth functions to mitigate risks of electric shock, fire, or mechanical hazards.
Key Topics
- Scope and Application: Covers household and similar electrical appliances, including battery-operated and dual supply devices. Defines classification of appliance types such as Class II and battery-operated appliances for safety testing.
- Normative References: Updates core references, including IEC 60252-1 for AC motor capacitors and other key standards related to transformers, rotating electrical machines, and automatic electrical controls.
- Definitions: Clarifies interconnection cords, battery boxes, and introduces new definitions aligned with modern appliance designs.
- Test Conditions: Specifies test setups for appliances powered by rechargeable or non-rechargeable batteries. Includes details on power input and current measurement methods during appliance operation.
- Marking and Instructions: Enhances marking requirements, including new symbols (IEC 60417-5018) for class II and III appliances with functional earth connections. Details instructions for voltage/frequency adjustments, altitude specifications, and user guidance.
- Temperature Limits: Provides updated temperature rise limits for various materials and appliance parts, ensuring components do not reach unsafe temperatures during operation.
- Leakage Current and Insulation Testing: Defines test circuits and limits for leakage currents for different appliance classes to prevent electric shock hazards.
- Moisture Resistance: Outlines test procedures involving standardized spillage solutions to verify appliance resistance to moisture ingress.
- Abnormal Operation: Includes protections and tests for electronic timers and programmers to ensure safe performance during abnormal operating conditions and voltage surges.
Applications
IEC 60335-1:2010/AMD1:2013 serves as a mandatory reference for manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory authorities involved in the design, certification, and approval of household electrical appliances such as:
- Kitchen appliances (e.g., mixers, toasters, coffee makers)
- Cleaning equipment (e.g., vacuum cleaners, steam cleaners)
- Personal care devices (e.g., hair dryers, electric shavers)
- Battery-operated devices and portable appliances with interchangeable power sources
- Electrical heating and cooling devices for home use
Implementing the updated safety requirements ensures appliances meet internationally recognized safety levels, improving user protection and product reliability. Manufacturers can better align with global market regulations and reduce the risks associated with electrical hazards through compliance with amended tests and marking rules.

Annex B – Appliances powered by rechargeable batteries
Replace the existing title by the following:
Appliances powered by rechargeable batteries that are recharged in the
appliance
Replace the introductory text by the following:
The following modifications to this standard are applicable for appliances powered by
batteries that are recharged in the appliance.
NOTE 1 Rechargeable batteries are also referred to as secondary batteries.
NOTE 2 This Annex B does not apply to battery chargers (IEC 60335-2-29).
These appliances take one of the following three forms of construction:
a) The appliance can be supplied directly from the supply mains or a renewable energy
source such as a solar cell, the battery charging circuitry and other supply unit circuitry
being incorporated within the appliance.
b) The part of the appliance incorporating the battery is supplied from the supply mains or a
renewable energy source such as a solar cell, via a detachable supply unit. The battery
charging circuitry is incorporated within the part of the appliance containing the battery.
In this case, the complete appliance is the detachable supply unit plus the part of the
appliance containing the battery and the battery charging circuitry.
c) The part of the appliance incorporating the battery is supplied from the supply mains or a
renewable energy source such as a solar cell, via a detachable supply unit. The battery
charging circuitry is incorporated within the detachable supply unit. In this case, the
complete appliance is the detachable supply unit with the battery charging circuitry plus
the part of the appliance containing the battery.
NOTE 3 Examples of the forms of construction covered by this Annex B are shown in Figure B.1.
NOTE 4 If the appliance incorporates a non-rechargeable (primary) battery or a rechargeable (secondary) battery
that must be removed from the appliance for charging, then Annex S is applicable. In this case, the appliance is
simply a battery-operated appliance and the safety requirements for the battery charger for charging the
rechargeable battery are contained in IEC 60335-2-29.
