Part 2-5: Particular requirements for dishwashers
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the
form of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the
subject of patent rights. The 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 technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 1992 and its amend-
ments 1 (1999) and 2 (1999). It constitutes a technical revision.
The text of this part of IEC 60335 is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on Voting
61/2099/FDIS 61/2130/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 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 electric dishwashers.
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.

– 4 – 60335-2-5  IEC:2002(E)
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 concerns an adjective, the adjective and
associated noun are also in bold.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
2004. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
The following differences exist in the countries indicated below.
– 6.1: Appliances may be of class 0I, if the rated voltage does not exceed 150 V (Japan).
– 20.102: A 30 000 cycle endurance test is carried out on door interlocks (USA).
– 25.7: The supply cord is required to have a free length of at least 1,5 m (USA).
– Annex AA: The detergent and rinsing agent are different (USA).
– Annex BB: Different tests are carried out (USA).
The contents of the corrigendum of May 2003 have been included in this copy.

60335-2-5  IEC:2002(E) – 5 –
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 which 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 2-5: Particular requirements for dishwashers
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the
form of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the
subject of patent rights. The 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 technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition published in 1992 and its amend-
ments 1 (1999) and 2 (1999). It constitutes a technical revision.

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 prescriptions 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
correspondante 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 prescriptions.
Un appareil utilisant des matériaux ou présentant des modes de construction différents de
ceux décrits dans les prescriptions de cette norme peut être examiné et essayé en fonction
de l'objectif poursuivi par ces prescriptions et, s'il est jugé pratiquement équivalent, il peut
être estimé conforme aux principes de sécurité de la norme.

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 which 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 2-5: Particular requirements for dishwashers

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 technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This consolidated version of IEC 60335-2-5 consists of the fifth edition (2002) [documents
61/2099/FDIS and 61/2130/RVD], its amendment 1 (2005) [documents 61/2788/FDIS and
61/2813/RVD] and its amendment 2 (2008) [documents 61/3639/FDIS and 61/3679/RVD].
The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendments and has
been prepared for user convenience.
It bears the edition number 5.2.
A vertical line in the margin shows where the base publication has been modified by
amendments 1 and 2.
The French version of this standard has not been voted upon.

– 4 – 60335-2-5 © IEC:2002+A1:2005
+A2:2008
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 electric dishwashers.
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 concerns an adjective, the adjective and
associated noun are also in bold.
The following differences exist in the countries indicated below.
– 6.1: Appliances may be of class 0I, if the rated voltage does not exceed 150 V (Japan).
– 20.102: A 30 000 cycle endurance test is carried out on door interlocks (USA).
– 25.7: The supply cord is required to have a free length of at least 1,5 m (USA).
– Annex AA: The detergent and rinsing agent are different (USA).
– Annex BB: Different tests are carried out (USA).
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 2 be adopted for implementation
nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 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.
2 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 which 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.

similar purposes that are intended for washing and rinsing dishes, cutlery and other utensils,
their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for
other appliances.
Appliances intended for normal household and similar use and that may also be used by
laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
However, if the appliance is intended to be used professionally for washing and rinsing dishes
and cutlery and other utensils that are used for commercial purposes, the appliance is not
considered to be for household and similar use only.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by
appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general,
it does not take into account
– persons (including children) whose
• physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or
• lack of experience and knowledge
prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction;
– children playing with the appliance.
NOTE 101 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;
– 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 102 This standard does not apply to
– commercial electric dishwashing machines (IEC 60335-2-58);
– appliances intended for industrial purposes;

15.2 Replacement:
Appliances shall be constructed so that spillage of liquid in normal use does not affect their
electrical insulation, even if an inlet valve fails to close.
Compliance is checked by the following test.
Appliances with a type X attachment, except those having a specially prepared cord, are
fitted with the lightest permissible type of flexible cord of the smallest cross-sectional area
specified in Table 13.
Appliances intended to be filled with water by the user are completely filled with water
containing approximately 1 % NaCl. A further quantity of this solution equal to 15 % of the
capacity of the appliance or 0,25 l, whichever is greater, is poured in steadily over a period
of 1 min.
Other appliances are operated until the maximum water level is reached, and 5 g of the
detergent specified in Annex AA is added for each litre of water in the appliance. The inlet
valve is held open and the filling continued for 15 min after first evidence of overflow or until
the inflow is automatically stopped by other means.
For appliances that are loaded from the front, the door is then opened if this can be achieved
manually and without damage to the door interlock system.
For appliances having a working surface, 0,5 l of water containing approximately 1 % NaCl
and 0,6 % of rinsing agent, as specified in Annex AA, is poured over the top of the appliance,
the controls being placed in the on position. The controls are then operated through their
working range, this operation being repeated after a period of 5 min.
The appliance shall then withstand the electric strength test of 16.3 and inspection shall show
that there is no trace of water on insulation that could result in a reduction of clearances and
creepage distances below the values specified in Clause 29.
15.101 Appliances shall be constructed so that foaming does not affect electrical insulation.
Compliance is checked by the following test which is carried out immediately after that of
15.2.
The appliance is operated under the conditions specified in Clause 11 but for one complete
cycle with the programme that results in the longest period of operation. A solution consisting
of 20 g of NaCl and 1 ml of a solution of 28 % by mass of dodecyl sodium sulphate
(C H Na SO ), is added for each 8 l of water in the appliance.
12 25 2 4
For appliances incorporating a detergent dispenser, the solution is added manually at the
point in the cycle when it would normally be dispensed automatically. For other appliances,
the solution is added before starting the cycle.
The appliance shall then withstand the electric strength test of 16.3.
The appliance is then operated for two cycles under the same conditions, except that the
solution is not added. It shall then withstand the electric strength test of 16.3.
The appliance is kept in a test room having a normal atmosphere for 24 h before being
subjected to the test of 15.3.
NOTE The solution used for this test has to be stored in a cool atmosphere and used within seven days of its
preparation.

19.13 Addition:
During the tests of 19.101, the temperature of windings shall not exceed the values specified
in Table 8.
19.101 The appliance is supplied at rated voltage and operated under normal operation.
Any fault condition or unexpected operation that may be applied in normal use is introduced.
NOTE 1 Examples of fault conditions and unexpected operations are
– the programmer stopping in any position;
– disconnection and reconnection of one or more phases of the supply during any part of the programme;
– open-circuiting or short-circuiting of components;
– failure of a magnetic valve;
– opening and reclosing of the door or lid during any part of the programme, if this is possible;
– failure or blocking of the mechanical part of a water level switch. This fault condition is not applied if
• the cross section of the tube supplying the air chamber with water is greater than 5 cm with no dimension
smaller than 10 mm; and
• the outlet of the chamber is at least 20 mm above the highest water level; and
• the tube connecting the air-chamber to the water level switch is fixed so that there is no likelihood of
bending or pinching.
NOTE 2 Locking the main contacts of a contactor, used for energizing heating elements, in the ‘on’ position, is
considered to be a fault condition, unless at least two independent sets of contacts are provided. This may be
achieved by two contactors operating independently of each other or by one contactor having two independent
armatures operating two independent sets of contacts.
NOTE 3 In general, tests are limited to the fault conditions that may be expected to give the most unfavourable
results.
– 12 – 60335-2-5 © IEC:2002+A1:2005
+A2:2008
The simulation of component faults is limited to those that could expose the user to a hazard.
NOTE 4 If operation without water in the appliance is a more unfavourable condition for starting any programme,
the tests with that programme are carried out with the water valve closed. This valve is not closed after the
programme has started to operate.
NOTE 5 If the appliance stops at any particular point in the programme, the test with that fault condition is
considered to be ended.
NOTE 6 The fault condition with
– the automatic filling device held open is covered by 15.2;
– thermal controls short-circuited is covered by 19.4;
– motor capacitors short-circuited or open-circuited are covered by 19.7;
– the failure of door interlocks is covered by 24.1.4.
20 Stability and mechanical hazards
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
20.1 Modification:
The appliance is empty or filled as specified for normal operation, whichever is more
unfavourable. Doors and lids are closed and any castors turned to the most unfavourable
position.
Addition:
For appliances that are loaded from the front, compliance is also checked by the test of
20.101.
20.101 The appliance is placed on a horizontal surface and a mass of 23 kg is placed on, or
suspended from, the centre of the open door or any fully opened drawer, whichever is more
unfavourable. Any castors are turned to the most unfavourable position.
For appliances normally used on a table or similar support and incorporating a door having
horizontal hinges and a horizontal rest position, a mass of 7 kg is used instead of a mass of
23 kg.
Appliances normally used on a table or similar support and which have a drawer are
additionally tested with the drawer placed in the most unfavourable position and loaded with
the maximum number of place settings in accordance with the instructions.
If a dishwasher is combined with a hob, the test is carried out with the appliance loaded as
specified in IEC 60436, the point of application of the mass being at the centre of the outer
edge of the open door or drawer.
The appliance shall not tilt.
20.102 Doors and lids shall be interlocked so that the appliance can only be operated when
the door or lid is closed, unless there is adequate protection against ejection of hot water
when the door or lid is opened.
Compliance is checked by inspection and by manual test.
NOTE Slight splashing occurring immediately after the door or lid has been opened is neglected.

21 Mechanical strength
This clause of Part 1 is applicable.
22 Construction
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
22.6 Modification:
Instead of coloured water, a solution composed of 0,6 ml of the rinsing agent specified in
Annex AA per litre of distilled water is used.
Addition:
NOTE 101 Parts that withstand the ageing test specified in Annex BB are not considered to be parts where
leakage could occur.
Drops of undiluted rinsing agent, as specified in Annex AA, are applied to the external surface
of the parts from which rinsing agent could leak if a seal fails.
After the test, there shall be no rinsing agent on the insulation of internal wiring, if
deterioration of the insulation could result in a hazard.
NOTE 102 The influence of opening and closing the door is taken into account.
NOTE 103 Leakage of rinsing agent onto porous material is taken into account if this material is in contact with
internal wiring.
22.101 Appliances shall withstand the water pressure expected in normal use.
Compliance is checked by connecting the appliance to a water supply having a static pressure
equal to twice the maximum permissible inlet water pressure or 1,2 MPa, whichever is higher,
for a period of 5 min.
There shall be no leakage from any part, including the inlet water hose.
22.102 Appliances shall be constructed so that heating elements cannot come into contact
with combustible material inside the appliance as a result of deformation of the heating
elements or of parts supporting them.
Compliance is checked by inspection.
22.103 Appliances shall be constructed so that dishes and cutlery contacting heating
elements during the drying period do not give rise to a fire hazard.
Compliance is checked by the following test.
The appliance is placed on a piece of white pinewood board covered with tissue paper.
Polyethylene disks, approximately 80 mm in diameter and 2 mm thick, are placed at the most
unfavourable location, where possible directly in contact with the heating element. The
appliance is supplied at 1,1 times rated voltage and operated for a drying period under
normal operation.
When smoke or odour is evident, or when one-third of the drying period has elapsed,
whichever occurs first, the door or lid is opened.

Part 2-5: Particular requirements for dishwashers

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 technical committee
61: Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This consolidated version of IEC 60335-2-5 consists of the fifth edition (2002) [documents

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 et

prend en considération les phénomènes électromagnétiques qui peuvent affecter le

fonctionnement en toute sécurité des appareils.
Cette norme tient compte autant que possible des prescriptions 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
correspondante 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 prescriptions.
Un appareil utilisant des matériaux ou présentant des modes de construction différents de
ceux décrits dans les prescriptions de cette norme peut être examiné et essayé en fonction
de l'objectif poursuivi par ces prescriptions et, s'il est jugé pratiquement équivalent, il peut
être estimé conforme aux principes de sécurité de la norme.

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.
This standard is a product family standard dealing with the safety of appliances and takes
