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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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.

INTRODUCTION
Il a été considéré en établissant la présente Norme internationale que l'exécution de ses

dispositions était confiée à des personnes expérimentées et ayant une qualification

appropriée.
Cette norme reconnaît le niveau de protection internationalement accepté contre les risques

électriques, mécaniques, thermiques, liés au feu et au rayonnement des appareils, lorsqu'ils

fonctionnent comme en usage normal en tenant compte des instructions du fabricant. Elle

couvre également les situations anormales auxquelles on peut s'attendre dans la pratique.

Cette norme tient compte autant que possible des exigences de la CEI 60364, de façon à
rester compatible avec les règles d'installation quand l’appareil est raccordé au réseau
d’alimentation. Cependant, des règles nationales d'installation peuvent être différentes.
Si un appareil compris dans le domaine d’application de cette norme comporte également des
fonctions qui sont couvertes par une autre partie 2 de la CEI 60335, la partie 2 corres-
pondante est appliquée à chaque fonction séparément, dans la limite du raisonnable. Si cela
est applicable, on tient compte de l’influence d’une fonction sur les autres fonctions.
Cette norme est une norme de famille de produits traitant de la sécurité d’appareils et a
préséance sur les normes horizontales et génériques couvrant le même sujet.
Un appareil conforme au texte de la présente norme ne sera pas nécessairement jugé
conforme aux principes de sécurité de la norme si, lorsqu'il est examiné et soumis aux essais,
il apparaît qu'il présente d'autres caractéristiques qui compromettent le niveau de sécurité
visé par ces exigences.
Un appareil utilisant des matériaux ou présentant des modes de construction différents de
ceux décrits dans les exigences de cette norme peut être examiné et essayé en fonction de
l'objectif poursuivi par ces exigences et, s'il est jugé pratiquement équivalent, il peut être
estimé conforme aux principes de sécurité de la norme.

60335-2-62 © IEC:2002 – 9 –
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.

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.

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.
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.
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.

Part 2-62: Particular requirements

for commercial electric rinsing sinks

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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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.
This part of International Standard IEC 60335 has been prepared by IEC subcommittee 61E:
Safety of electrical commercial catering equipment, of IEC technical committee 61: Safety of
household and similar electrical appliances.
This consolidated version of IEC 60335-2-62 consists of the third (2002) [documents
61E/407/FDIS and 61E/419/RVD] and its amendment 1 (2008) [documents 61E/599/FDIS and
61E/614/RVD].
The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendment and has
been prepared for user convenience.
It bears the edition number 3.1.
A vertical line in the margin shows where the base publication has been modified by
amendment 1.
– 4 – 60335-2-62 © IEC:2002+A1:2008

The French version of this standard has not been voted upon.

This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its
amendments. It was established on the basis of the fourth edition (2001) of that standard.

NOTE 1 When “Part 1” is mentioned in this standard, it refers to IEC 60335-1.

This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60335-1, so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Safety requirements for commercial electric

rinsing sinks.
When a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2, that subclause applies
as far as is reasonable. When this standard states "addition", "modification" or "replacement",
the relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
NOTE 2 The following numbering system is used:
– 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.
NOTE 3 The following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in small roman type.
Words in bold in the text are defined in Clause 3. When a definition of Part 1 concerns an adjective, the
adjective and the associated noun are also in bold .
The following differences exist in the countries indicated below.
– 6.1: Class 01 appliances are allowed if their rated voltage does not exceed 150 V (Japan).
– 6.2: For appliances intended to be installed in a kitchen, an appropriate degree of protection against harmful
ingress of water is required according to their height of installation (France).
– 13.2: Leakage current limits are different (Japan).
– 16.2: Leakage current limits are different (Japan).
– Clause 21: For appliances intended to be installed in a kitchen, different values of impact energy are
applicable according to the height of the impact point (France).
The committee has decided that the contents of the base publication and its amendments will
remain unchanged until the maintenance result 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.
NOTE 4 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 the amendment 1 be adopted for implementation
nationally not earlier than 12 months from the date of publication.

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.

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 and generic standards 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. For
example, in the case of temperature requirements for surfaces on many appliances, generic standards, such as
ISO 13732-1 for hot surfaces, are not applicable in addition to Part 1 or part 2 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.

Part 2-62: Particular requirements

for commercial electric rinsing sinks

1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This International Standard deals with the safety of electrically operated commercial rinsing
sinks not intended for household use, 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.
NOTE 101 These appliances are used for example in restaurants, canteens, hospitals and commercial enterprises
such as bakeries, butcheries, etc.
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.
NOTE 102 Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be
necessary;
– for appliances intended to be used in tropical countries, special requirements may 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.
NOTE 103 This standard does not apply to
– appliances designed primarily for sterilizing to clinical standards;
– dishwashers (IEC 60335-2-58);
– appliances designed exclusively for industrial purposes;

Appliances with type X attachment, except those having a specially prepared cord, are fitted
with the lightest permissible type of flexible cable or cord, of the smallest cross-sectional area
specified in 26.6, and other appliances are tested as delivered.
Detachable parts are removed.
The containers of appliances intended to be filled by hand are completely filled with water
containing approximately 1 % NaCl and a further quantity equal to 15 % of the capacity of the
container but not more than 10 l is poured in steadily over a period of 1 min.

– 12 – 60335-2-62 © IEC:2002+A1:2008

Appliances intended to be filled by a manually operated tap or automatically are connected to
a water supply having the maximum supply pressure indicated by the manufacturer. The

means for controlling the incoming water is held fully open and the filling continued for 1 min

after the first evidence of overflow, or until a further protective system operates to stop the

inflow.
The appliance shall then withstand the electric strength test of 16.3, and inspection shall

show that there is no trace of water on the insulation that could result in a reduction of

clearances and creepage distances below the values specified in Clause 29.

15.3 Addition:
NOTE 101 If it is not possible to place the whole appliance in the humidity cabinet, parts containing electrical
components are tested separately, taking into account the conditions that occur in the appliance.
15.101 Appliances that are provided with a tap intended for filling or cleaning shall be
constructed so that the water from the tap cannot come into contact with live parts.
Compliance is checked by the following test.
The tap is fully opened for 1 min with the appliance connected to a water supply having the
maximum water pressure indicated by the manufacturer. Tiltable and movable parts, including
lids, are tilted or placed in the most unfavourable position. Swivelling outlets of water taps are
so positioned as to direct water on to those parts that will give the most unfavourable result.
Immediately following this treatment the appliance shall withstand an electric strength test as
specified in 16.3.

22 Construction
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.

22.101 For three-phase appliances, thermal cut-outs protecting circuits with heating
elements, and those for motors of which the unexpected starting may cause a hazard, shall
be of the non-self-resetting and trip-free type, and shall provide all-pole disconnection from
related supply circuits.
For single-phase appliances and for single-phase heating elements and/or motors connected
between one phase and neutral or between phase and phase, thermal cut-outs protecting
circuits with heating elements, and those for motors of which the unexpected starting may
cause a hazard, shall be of the non-self-resetting and trip-free type, and shall provide at least
one-pole disconnection.
If the non-self-resetting thermal cut-out is only accessible after removing parts with the aid
of a tool, the trip-free type is not required.
NOTE 1 Thermal cut-outs of the trip-free type have an automatic action, with a reset actuating member, so
constructed that the automatic action is independent of manipulation or position of the reset mechanism.

Thermal cut-outs of the bulb and capillary type that operate during the tests of Clause 19
shall be such that rupture of the capillary tube shall not impair compliance with the

requirements of 19.13.
Compliance is checked by inspection, by manual test and by rupturing the capillary tube.

NOTE 2 Care must be taken to ensure that the rupture does not seal the capillary tube.

22.102 Lights, switches or push-buttons shall only be coloured red for the indication of

danger, alarm or similar situations.

Compliance is checked by inspection.
22.103 Drain cocks and other emptying devices for hot liquids shall be constructed so that
they cannot be opened inadvertently. Moreover, it shall not be possible to withdraw drain
plugs inadvertently.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by manual test.
NOTE For example, this requirement is met when the valve handle is such that, when released, it returns
automatically to the closed position, or is of the wheel type or is placed in a recess.
22.104 Means provided to allow drainage of liquid from appliances shall discharge the liquid
in such a manner that electrical insulation is not affected.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by manual test.
22.105 Portable appliances shall not have openings on the underside that would allow
small items to penetrate and touch live parts.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by measuring the distance between the supporting
surface and live parts through openings. This distance shall be at least 6 mm. However, if the
appliance is fitted with legs, this distance is increased to 10 mm if the appliance is intended to
stand on the table and to 20 mm if it is intended to stand on the floor.
22.106 The level to which manually filled appliances have to be filled shall be so located as
to be readily visible when filling.
Compliance is checked by inspection.
23 Internal wiring
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
23.3 Addition:
When the capillary tube of the thermostat is liable to flexing in normal use the following
applies:
– where the capillary tube is fitted as part of the internal wiring, Part 1 applies;
– where the capillary tube is separate, it shall be subjected to 1 000 flexings at a rate not
exceeding 30 per minute.
NOTE 101 If, in any of the above cases, it is not possible to move the movable part of the appliance at the given
rate, due for example to the mass of the part, the rate of flexing may be reduced.

60335-2-62 © IEC:2002+A1:2008 – 15 –

After the test, the capillary tube shall show no sign of damage within the meaning of this
standard and no damage impairing its further use.

However, if a rupture of the capillary tube renders the appliance inoperative (fail-safe),
separate capillary tubes are not tested, and those fitted as part of the internal wiring are not

inspected for compliance with the requirements.

Compliance in this instance is checked by rupturing the capillary tube.

NOTE 102 Care must be taken to ensure that the rupture does not seal the capillary tube.
