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 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.
This redline version of the official IEC Standard allows the user to identify the changes
made to the previous edition. A vertical bar appears in the margin wherever a change
has been made. Additions are in green text, deletions are in strikethrough red text.

International Standard IEC 60335-2-62 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2002 and its
Amendment 1:2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
– indicates specific values for temperatures for accessible parts and water and aligns the
text with IEC 60335-1, Edition 5, and its Amendments 1 and 2;
– requires the application of test probe 12 for the verification of access to live parts (8.101);
– foresees the use of a specific test probe for the measurements of temperatures of
accessible surfaces (11.3);
– washing vessel (11.8);
– modification on leakage current defining the value for appliances with a power
consumption less than 1 kW (13.2);
– addition of specific requirements concerning types of screws to be used for electrical
connections and connections for earth continuity (Clause 28);
– addition of informative Annex P dealing with leakage currents for appliances used in
tropical climates.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
61/5938/FDIS 61/5950/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 60335 series, 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
amendments. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) 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: Particular 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.

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.

This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
11.2 Addition:
Appliances intended to be fixed to the floor and appliances with a mass greater than 40 kg
and not provided with rollers, castors or similar means are installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. If no instructions are given, these appliances are considered as
appliances normally placed on the floor.
11.3 Addition:
Where the external accessible surfaces are suitably flat and access permits, then the test
probe of Figure 101 is used to measure the temperature rises of external accessible
surfaces specified in Table 101. The probe is applied with a force of 4 N ± 1 N to the surface
in such a way that the best possible contact between the probe and the surface is ensured.
The measurement is performed after a contact period of 30 s.
The probe may be held in place using a laboratory stand clamp or similar device. Any
measuring instrument giving the same results as the probe may be used.
The water temperature is measured 25 mm below the centre of the liquid surface. However,
the distance from the heating element shall be at least 10 mm.
11.4 Replacement:
Appliances are operated under normal operation such that the total power input of the
appliance is 1,15 times rated power input. If it is not possible to switch on all heating
elements at the same time, the test is made with each of the combinations that the switch
arrangement will allow, the highest load possible with each switching arrangement being in
circuit.
– 14 – IEC 60335-2-62:2019 RLV © IEC 2019
If the appliance is provided with a control that limits the total power input, the test is made
with whichever combination of heating units, as may be selected by the control, imposes the
most severe condition.
If the temperature rise limits of motors, transformers or electronic circuits are exceeded, the
test is repeated with the appliance supplied at 1,06 times rated voltage. In this case, only the
temperature rises of motors, transformers or electronic circuits are measured.
NOTE 101 See also 11.7.
11.7 Replacement:
Appliances are operated until steady conditions are established.
When an appliance is assembled in combination with, equipped with or incorporating
accessories or other appliances, the interactions shall be covered if they are provided to
operate simultaneously as stated by the manufacturer or by a common control.
NOTE 101 The duration of the test may can consist of more than one cycle of operation.
11.8 Addition:
During the test, the temperature rises are monitored continuously and shall not exceed the
values shown in Table 3 and Table 101.

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.
Addition:
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 15
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.
16 Leakage current and electric strength
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
16.2 Modification:
Instead of the permissible leakage current for stationary class I appliances, the following
applies:
− for cord and plug connected appliances
0,75 mA or 1 mA per kW rated power input
of the appliance with a maximum of 10 mA,
whichever is higher
− for other appliances
0,75 mA or 1 mA per kW rated power input
of the appliance with no maximum,
whichever is higher
For portable class I appliances, instead of the permissible leakage current, the following
applies:
− for cord and plug connected appliances
0,75 mA or 1 mA per kW rated power input
of the appliance with a maximum of 10 mA,
whichever is higher
17 Overload protection of transformers and associated circuits
This clause of Part 1 is applicable.
18 Endurance
This clause of Part 1 is applicable.
19 Abnormal operation
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
19.1 Addition:
A control or switching device that is intended for different settings corresponding to different
functions of the same part of the appliance and that are covered by different standards is, in
addition, set in the most severe setting irrespective of the instructions for use.
19.2 Addition:
Appliances are tested without water and those intended to be automatically filled are tested
with the water supply turned off.
19.4 Addition:
NOTE 101 The main contacts of the contactor intended for switching on and off the heating
element(s) in normal use are locked in the "on" position. However, if two contactors operate
independently of each other or if one contactor operates two independent sets of main
contacts, these contacts are locked in the "on" position in turn.
20 Stability and mechanical hazards
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
20.1 Addition:
Covers, lids and accessories are placed in their most unfavourable positions.
NOTE 101 Any spillage of liquid is ignored.

21 Mechanical strength
This clause of Part 1 is applicable.
22 Construction
This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows.
22.54 Not applicable.
22.55 Not applicable.
22.101 For three-phase appliances, thermal cut-outs protecting circuits with heating
elements, and those for motors of which the unexpected starting of which may cause a hazard,
shall be of the non-self-resetting and trip-free type, and shall provide all-pole disconnection
from the 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
