Overview

prEN IEC 60335-2-62:2025/prAA:2025 is a CLC European amendment addressing the safety of commercial electric rinsing sinks used in commercial kitchens. It supplements Part 2-62 of the IEC 60335 series (household and similar electrical appliances - safety). The scope covers electrically operated commercial rinsing sinks with rated voltages up to 250 V for single-phase (phase to neutral) and up to 480 V for other appliances. This amendment is prepared by CLC/TC 61 and is submitted to enquiry; it modifies prEN IEC 60335-2-62:2025 and interacts with EN IEC 60335-1.

Key topics and requirements

The amendment (prAA) introduces and modifies several normative clauses and annexes. Major technical topics include:

  • Scope and foreseeable hazards - clarifies that the document deals with hazards encountered by all persons and domestic animals during reasonably foreseeable use.
  • Marking and instructions - expanded user information requirements, including explicit instructions concerning:
    • Use by people with disabilities and persons with reduced capabilities (supervision/instruction requirements).
    • Keeping the appliance out of reach of children and domestic animals; checking for animals inside the appliance before use; and that cleaning/user maintenance must not be performed by children.
  • Heating - updates to Clause 11 (heating) including editorial changes to measurement/instruction references.
  • Moisture resistance - updates to Clause 15 to require relevant information either in the instructions or marked on the appliance.
  • Supply connection and flexible cords - modifications to Clause 25 removing certain manufacturer-centric wording and aligning marking/instruction responsibilities.
  • Annexes and normative references - updates to Annex ZA and bibliography adding related ISO/IEC/EN documents and specific fastener and thermocouple standards.

Practical applications and users

This standard is targeted at:

  • Manufacturers and designers of commercial electric rinsing sinks for professional kitchens, foodservice and catering operations.
  • Test houses and conformity assessment bodies performing safety testing and CE/UK conformity evaluations.
  • Safety and compliance engineers drafting user instructions, markings, and installation guides.
  • Regulatory bodies and national standards committees implementing the European amendment.

Use cases:

  • Ensuring product design and user documentation meet European safety expectations.
  • Verifying labeling, instructions, and protective measures for vulnerable users (children, people with disabilities) and domestic animals.
  • Harmonizing product compliance across EU member states.

Related standards

  • EN IEC 60335-1 (Part 1) - general safety requirements for household and similar electrical appliances (referenced and amended).
  • EN IEC 60335-2-62:2025 (Part 2) - base standard to be read with this amendment.
