Overview
EN 60335-2-6:2015/A11:2020 is a CENELEC amendment to the European safety standard for household and similar electrical appliances - specifically stationary cooking ranges, hobs, ovens and similar appliances. Amendment A11 (approved 2019-05-27, published April 2020) updates Part 2‑6 of EN 60335‑2‑6 to clarify hazards, modify construction and marking requirements, and add normative references. It supports conformity to the EU Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU) when used together with Part 1.
Key Topics
- Scope clarification: the standard addresses common hazards in household environments but does not generally take into account:
- children playing with the appliance,
- use by very young children,
- use by young children without supervision.
- It acknowledges that very vulnerable people may require protections beyond the standard.
- Marking and Instructions (Clause 7.12): updated to state that hobs are not intended to be operated by external timers or separate remote-control systems, with an exception for shut‑off devices covered by EN 50615.
- Construction (Clause 22.40): reinforces that remote control of hobs is not allowed, except for switching off hob elements by devices compliant with EN 50615 in hazardous situations.
- Mechanical Strength (Clause 21.101): procedural clarification - measure initial shelf inclination with the shelf fully inserted and without mass; inclination difference shall not exceed 6°.
- Normative references: addition of EN 50615:2015 (fire prevention/suppression devices for electric hobs) and updates to referenced environmental and thermocouple standards (e.g., IEC/EN 60068 series, IEC 60584‑1).
- Regulatory linkage: Annex ZZA provides the correspondence between this standard and the safety objectives of the Low Voltage Directive, offering a route to presumption of conformity once cited in the OJ.
Applications
- Product design and engineering for stoves, cooktops, ovens, ensuring safe construction and user information.
- Compliance and certification: used by manufacturers, testing laboratories, notified bodies and conformity assessors for CE marking and market access in Europe.
- Risk assessments and technical documentation: informs instruction manuals, installation guides and safety labeling.
- Market surveillance and regulatory review: reference for authorities verifying compliance with harmonized standards.
Related Standards
- EN 60335-1 (Part 1: General requirements)
- EN 50615:2015 (devices for fire prevention and suppression for electric hobs)
- IEC/EN environmental test standards (e.g., IEC/EN 60068 series), IEC 60584‑1 (thermocouples)
Keywords: EN 60335-2-6:2015/A11:2020, household appliance safety, stationary cooking ranges, hobs, ovens, EN 50615, Low Voltage Directive, CENELEC compliance.
