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.

International Standard IEC 60335-2-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2002 including its
Amendment 1 (2004) and Amendment 2 (2006). It constitutes a technical revision.
The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fifth edition of IEC 60335-2-9 are
as follows (minor changes are not listed):
– aligns the text with IEC 60335-1, Ed 4, and its Amendments 1 and 2;
– introduces requirements for pop-corn makers (3, 11.7, 19.106);
– clarifies the term household and similar purposes (1, 7.12).

60335-2-9 © IEC:2008 – 5 –
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:

FDIS Report on voting
61/3651/FDIS 61/3691/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 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 grills, toasters and
similar portable cooking appliances.
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 the
associated noun are also in bold.
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 this standard be adopted for implementation
nationally not earlier than 12 months nor later than 36 months from the date of its 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 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.

SAFETY –
Part 2-9: Particular requirements for grills, toasters and

similar portable cooking appliances

1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This International Standard deals with the safety of electric portable appliances for
household and similar purposes that have a cooking function such as baking, roasting and
grilling, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V.
NOTE 101 Examples of appliances that are within the scope of this standard are
– barbecues for indoor use;
– breadmakers;
– contact grills (griddles);
– cookers;
– food dehydrators;
– hotplates;
– pop-corn makers;
– portable ovens;
– raclette grills;

– roasters;
– rotary grills;
– rotisseries;
– toasters;
– waffle irons;
Examples are illustrated in Figure 101.
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 to process food for commercial
consumption, 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.

60335-2-9 © IEC:2008 – 9 –
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;
– in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national

authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities.

NOTE 103 This standard does not apply to

– stationary ovens and stationary grills (IEC 60335-2-6);

– warming plates (IEC 60335-2-12);

– frying pans and deep fat fryers (IEC 60335-2-13);

– microwave ovens (IEC 60335-2-25);

– barbecues for outdoor use (IEC 60335-2-78);
– appliances intended to burn charcoal or similar combustible fuels;

NOTE 101 Appliances not mentioned but which nevertheless perform one of the functions are operated as
specified for this function as far as possible.

3.1.9.101 Toasters are loaded with the maximum number of slices of white bread specified
in the instructions and operated in cycles, each cycle consisting of an operating period and a
rest period. The bread is approximately 24 h old and the dimensions of the slices are
approximately 100 mm × 100 mm × 10 mm. The rest periods have a duration of 30 s or the
minimum period needed for the resetting of a control, whichever is longer. The slices of bread
are replaced during each rest period. The operating period is established by adjusting
controls to give the bread a golden-brown colour. For toasters without a control, each
operating period is terminated as soon as the colour of the bread turns golden-brown.
Toasters incorporating a device for heating rolls are loaded with the maximum number of rolls
specified in the instructions. The toaster is operated in cycles, each cycle consisting of an
operating period followed by a rest period of 30 s when the rolls are turned or replaced. The
control is adjusted in accordance with the instructions. If instructions are not given, the control
is adjusted for the toasting operation.

– 10 – 60335-2-9 © IEC:2008
Sandwich-toasting attachments are loaded with one or more sandwiches that are positioned

in accordance with the instructions to produce the most unfavourable result. Each sandwich

comprises two slices of white bread filled with a single slice of suitable cheese having an area

equal to a slice of bread and a thickness of approximately 5 mm. The toaster is then operated

in accordance with the instructions in cycles, each cycle consisting of a toasting operation

followed by a rest period of 30 s, or the minimum period needed for the resetting of a control,

whichever is longer.
NOTE Processed cheese and other cheeses that readily melt when heated are suitable.

3.1.9.102 Rotary grills are operated with the load on the rotating spit shown in Figure 102.

Contact grills having a thermostat are operated with the thermostat adjusted to the highest
setting. Other contact grills are operated so that the temperature at the centre of the heated
surface is maintained at 275 °C ± 15 °C by switching the supply on and off.
Raclette grills are operated with doors or lids open, unless otherwise specified in the
instructions. Controls are adjusted in accordance with the instructions, pans being in position
or removed, whichever is more unfavourable.
3.1.9.107 Barbecues are operated with food supports in the lowest position. Controls are
adjusted to the highest setting, any covers or shields being positioned in accordance with the
instructions.
NOTE Barbecues are operated without water even if the use of water is recommended.
3.1.9.108 Hotplates, other than induction hotplates, are operated with vessels containing
water. The vessels are made of unpolished commercial quality aluminium, have a flat bottom
and are covered with a lid. A suitable vessel is specified in Figure 103. Controls are adjusted
to their highest setting until the water boils and then adjusted so that the water simmers.
Water is added to maintain the level during boiling.
NOTE 1 The lid is positioned so that steam does not affect the test.
Induction hotplates are operated with vessels, as specified in Figure 104, containing cooking
oil. Controls are adjusted to their highest setting until the oil temperature reaches
180 °C ± 4 °C and are then adjusted so that this temperature is maintained. The oil
temperature is measured 1 cm above the centre of the bottom of the vessel.
For all hotplates, the diameter of the bottom of the vessel is approximately equal to the
diameter of the cooking zone and the quantity of liquid is specified in Table 101. The vessel
is positioned centrally on the cooking zone.

Part 2-9: Particular requirements for grills, toasters and

similar portable cooking appliances

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 consolidated version of IEC 60335-2-9 consists of the sixth edition (2008)
[documents 61/3651/FDIS and 61/3691/RVD] and its amendment 1 (2012) [documents
61/4448/FDIS and 61/4501/RVD]. It bears the edition number 6.1.
The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendment and
has been prepared for user convenience. A vertical line in the margin shows where the
base publication has been modified by amendment 1. Additions and deletions are
displayed in red, with deletions being struck through.

60335-2-9  IEC:2008+A1:2012 – 5 –

International Standard IEC 60335-2-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.

The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fifth edition of IEC 60335-2-9 are

as follows (minor changes are not listed):

– aligns the text with IEC 60335-1, Ed 4, and its Amendments 1 and 2;

– introduces requirements for pop-corn makers (3, 11.7, 19.106);

– clarifies the term household and similar purposes (1, 7.12).

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

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 grills, toasters and
similar portable cooking appliances.
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 the
associated noun are also in bold.
The following differences exist in the countries indicated below.
– 3.1.9: Different loads and test methods are used (Canada and USA).

– 5.101: If the appliance incorporates a motor, the motor is tested at rated voltage (USA).
– 7.12: Identification of the connector is to be marked on the appliance (Canada and USA).
– 11.2: 9,5 mm thick plywood is used for the test corner (USA).
– 11.7: The test duration is based on the quantity of food (USA).
– 11.8: The modification does not apply (Norway).
– 11.8: A temperature rise of 100 K is allowed for the wall of the test corner (USA).
– 11.101: There are no surface temperature limits on toasters having a metallic enclosure unless they are under
cabinet or wall mounted, in which case it is allowed that the temperatures may reach 100 °C if a proper
marking is provided (USA).
– 15.2: A different solution is used and the test is not carried out on ovens, hotplates or cookers (USA).
– 15.101: Appliances are immersed to the marked level only (USA).
– 19.2: A 300 mm deep simulated cabinet is located 400 mm above the countertop (Canada and USA).
– 19.2: The test is different. Additional tests are carried out on hotplates and cookers (USA):
– 19.101: Different test methods and numbers of cycles are used (Canada and USA).
– 19.102: A combustible cloth is placed above the toaster and the residual bread is left in place (Canada and USA).

– 6 – 60335-2-9  IEC:2008+A1:2012

– 19.104: Disks having different sizes are used (USA).

– 20.101: The test is not carried out (USA).

– 21.101: The test is different (USA).

– 25.7: The free length of the supply cord is specified; in some cases, it is 1,8 m to 2,1 m for appliances

intended to be connected to fixed socket-outlets, while in others it is 0,6 m to 2,1 m for appliances normally
used on a table or similar surface (Canada and USA).
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 this standard be adopted for implementation
nationally not earlier than 12 months nor later than 36 months from the date of its publication.
The committee has decided that the contents of the base publication and its amendments 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.
IMPORTANT – The “colour inside” logo on the cover page of this publication indicates
that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding
of its contents. Users should therefore print this publication using a colour printer.

The contents of the corrigendum of January 2013 have been included in this copy.

60335-2-9  IEC:2008+A1:2012 – 7 –

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 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.

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 to process food for commercial
consumption, 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.

60335-2-9  IEC:2008+A1:2012 – 9 –

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;
– in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national

authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities.

NOTE 103 This standard does not apply to

– stationary ovens and stationary grills (IEC 60335-2-6);

– warming plates (IEC 60335-2-12);

specified for this function as far as possible.
3.1.9.101 Toasters are loaded with the maximum number of slices of white bread specified
in the instructions and operated in cycles, each cycle consisting of an operating period and a
rest period. The bread is approximately 24 h old and the dimensions of the slices are
approximately 100 mm × 100 mm × 10 mm. The rest periods have a duration of 30 s or the
minimum period needed for the resetting of a control, whichever is longer. The slices of bread
are replaced during each rest period. The operating period is established by adjusting
controls to give the bread a golden-brown colour. For toasters without a control, each
operating period is terminated as soon as the colour of the bread turns golden-brown.
Toasters incorporating a device for heating rolls are loaded with the maximum number of rolls
specified in the instructions. The toaster is operated in cycles, each cycle consisting of an
operating period followed by a rest period of 30 s when the rolls are turned or replaced. The
control is adjusted in accordance with the instructions. If instructions are not given, the control
is adjusted for the toasting operation.

Part 2-9: Particular requirements for grills, toasters and
similar portable cooking appliances
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 consolidated version of the official IEC Standard and its amendments has been
prepared for user convenience.
IEC 60335-2-9 edition 6.2 contains the sixth edition (2008-07) [documents 61/3651/FDIS
and 61/3691/RVD], its amendment 1 (2012-11) [documents 61/4448/FDIS and 61/4501/
RVD] and its amendment 2 (2016-04) [documents 61/5107/FDIS and 61/5138/RVD].
In this Redline version, a vertical line in the margin shows where the technical content is
modified by amendments 1 and 2. Additions are in green text, deletions are in
strikethrough red text. A separate Final version with all changes accepted is available in
this publication.
+AMD2:2016 CSV  IEC 2016
International Standard IEC 60335-2-9 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 61:
Safety of household and similar electrical appliances.
The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fifth edition of IEC 60335-2-9 are
as follows (minor changes are not listed):
– aligns the text with IEC 60335-1, Ed 4, and its Amendments 1 and 2;
– introduces requirements for pop-corn makers (3, 11.7, 19.106);
– clarifies the term household and similar purposes (1, 7.12).
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
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 grills, toasters and
similar portable cooking appliances.
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 the
associated noun are also in bold.
The following differences exist in the countries indicated below.
– 3.1.9: Different loads and test methods are used (Canada and USA).
– 5.101: If the appliance incorporates a motor, the motor is tested at rated voltage (USA).
– 7.12: Identification of the connector is to be marked on the appliance (Canada and USA).
– 11.2: 9,5 mm thick plywood is used for the test corner (USA).
– 11.7: The test duration is based on the quantity of food (USA).
– 11.8: The modification does not apply (Norway).
– 11.8: A temperature rise of 100 K is allowed for the wall of the test corner (USA).
– 11.101: There are no surface temperature limits on toasters having a metallic enclosure unless they are under
cabinet or wall mounted, in which case it is allowed that the temperatures may reach 100 °C if a proper
marking is provided (USA).
– 15.2: A different solution is used and the test is not carried out on ovens, hotplates or cookers (USA).
– 15.101: Appliances are immersed to the marked level only (USA).
– 19.2: A 300 mm deep simulated cabinet is located 400 mm above the countertop (Canada and USA).
– 19.2: The test is different. Additional tests are carried out on hotplates and cookers (USA):
– 19.101: Different test methods and numbers of cycles are used (Canada and USA).
– 19.102: A combustible cloth is placed above the toaster and the residual bread is left in place (Canada and USA).

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 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.

However, if the appliance is intended to be used professionally to process food for commercial
consumption, 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.

+AMD2:2016 CSV  IEC 2016
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;
