Overview

prEN IEC 60335-2-111:2025/prAA:2025 is a CLC draft amendment (prAA) to the European safety standard for electric ondol mattresses with a non‑flexible heated part. It covers the safety of household and similar electrical ondol‑type mattresses and their control units when operated at a rated voltage not more than 250 V (including DC‑supplied and battery‑operated appliances). The amendment clarifies scope and introduces additional user‑safety and marking requirements, with particular emphasis on children, people with disabilities and domestic animals.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope clarification: The standard deals with reasonably foreseeable hazards of intended and normal use “encountered by all persons and domestic animals in and around the home.”
  • Appliance coverage: Applies to electric ondol mattresses that have a non‑flexible heated part and associated control units; rated voltage ≤ 250 V, including DC and battery operation.
  • Marking and instructions (Clause 7 modifications): Instructions must explicitly address:
    • Use by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities (may require supervision or instruction).
    • Supervision requirements for children (usable by children aged 8+ only if continuously supervised).
    • Supervision and prevention of play by children and domestic animals.
    • Keeping the appliance out of reach of domestic animals and children under 8.
    • Cord safety (do not let cord hang over edges when unattended).
    • Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children.
  • Annex and normative references: Adds references (for example ISO 2439 for hardness determination) and updates normative bibliography to align with related IEC 60335‑2 parts.
  • Regulatory status: This prAA is a draft submitted for CENELEC enquiry (deadline 2026‑02‑13) and, if approved, will modify EN IEC 60335‑2‑111:2025.

Practical applications

Who uses this standard and why:

  • Manufacturers and product designers: to design compliant, safer ondol mattresses and control units (warnings, markings, user instructions).
  • Test and certification laboratories: to verify conformity with European safety requirements for household heating mattresses.
  • Regulatory and compliance teams: to implement CE‑marking evidence and demonstrate alignment with EN safety objectives.
  • Importers, retailers and technical writers: to ensure correct user instructions, labeling and consumer information are provided.
  • Healthcare and assisted‑living equipment specifiers: to evaluate suitability for users with disabilities.

Related standards

  • EN IEC 60335‑1 (Part 1 general requirements) - referenced and supplemented by this amendment.
  • Other IEC 60335‑2 series parts listed in the bibliography (e.g., 2‑17, 2‑30, 2‑66, 2‑71, 2‑81, 2‑96, 2‑106).

Keywords: electric ondol mattress, non‑flexible heated part, household electrical appliance safety, EN IEC 60335‑2‑111, CENELEC, marking and instructions, children safety, disability accommodations, rated voltage ≤250 V.
