IEC 60335-2-40:2024 deals with the safety of electric heat pumps, sanitary hot water heat pumps and air conditioners, incorporating motor-compressors as well as hydronic fan coils units, dehumidifiers (with or without motor-compressors), thermoelectric heat pumps and partial units, their maximum rated voltage being not more than 300 V for single phase appliances and 600 V for other appliances including direct current (DC) supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laypersons in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
The appliances referenced above can consist of one or more factory-made assemblies. If provided in more than one assembly, the separate assemblies are used together, and the requirements are based on the use of matched assemblies.
A definition of ‘motor-compressor’ is given in IEC 60335-2-34, which includes the statement that the term motor-compressor is used to designate either a hermetic motor-compressor or semi-hermetic motor-compressor.
Requirements for containers intended for storage of the heated water included in sanitary hot water heat pumps are, in addition, covered by IEC 60335-2-21.
This standard does not take into account refrigerants other than group A1, A2L, A2 and A3 as defined by ISO 817. Flammable refrigerants are limited to those of a molar mass of more than or equal to 42 kg/kmol based on WCF (worst case formulation) as specified in ISO 817.
As far as practical, this standard deals with common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered in normal use and assumes that installation, servicing, decommissioning, and disposal are safely handled by competent persons and accidental release of refrigerants is avoided. However, it does not specify the criteria to ensure competence of persons during installation, servicing and disposal. Safety requirements during disposal are not specified in this standard.
Annex HH provides informative requirements on competence of personnel. Criteria for competence of personnel for the purpose of certification schemes can be found in ISO 22712.
Unless specifications are covered by this standard, including the annexes, requirements for refrigerating safety are covered by:
– ISO 5149-1:2014, ISO 5149-1:2014/AMD1:2015, and ISO 5149-1:2014/AMD2:2021,
– ISO 5149-2:2014 and ISO 5149-2:2014/AMD1:2020,
– ISO 5149-3:2014 and ISO 5149-3:2014/AMD1:2021.
Supplementary heaters, or a provision for their separate installation, are within the scope of this standard, but only heaters which are designed as a part of the appliance package, the controls being incorporated in the appliance.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on-board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
– in many countries, additional requirements are specified, for example, by the national health authorities responsible for the protection of labour and the national authorities responsible for storage, transportation, building constructions and installations.
This standard does not apply to
– humidifiers intended for use with heating and cooling equipment (IEC 60335-2-88);
– appliances designed exclusively for industrial processing;
– appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).

IEC 60335-2-34:2024 deals with the safety of sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-compressors, their protection and control systems, if any, which are intended for use in equipment for household and similar purposes and which conform with the standards applicable to such equipment. It applies to motor-compressors tested separately, under the most severe conditions that can be expected to occur in normal use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase motor-compressors and 600 V for multi-phase, 600 V direct-current (DC) motor-compressors.
This standard also covers:
– multi-speed motor-compressors, that are motor-compressors, the speed of which can be set to different values;
– variable capacity motor-compressors that are motor-compressors where the capacity of the compressor is controlled at fixed speeds.
Examples of equipment which contain motor-compressors are:
– tumble dryers (IEC 60335-2-11);
– refrigerating appliances, ice-cream appliances and ice-makers (IEC 60335-2-24);
– electrical heat pumps, air-conditioners and dehumidifiers (IEC 60335-2-40);
– commercial dispensing appliances and vending machines (IEC 60335-2-75);
– commercial refrigerating appliances and ice-makers with an incorporated or remote refrigerant unit or compressor (IEC 60335-2-89);
– refrigerating equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use (IEC 61010-2-011);
– professional ice-cream makers (IEC 60335-2-118);
– professional systems and heat pumps (ISO 5149-2);
This standard does not supersede the requirements of standards relevant to the particular appliance in which the motor-compressor is used. However, if the motor-compressor type used complies with this standard, it will not be necessary for the tests for the motor-compressor specified in the particular appliance standard to be made in the particular appliance or assembly. If the motor-compressor control system is associated with the particular appliance control system, additional tests could be necessary on the end product.
So far as is practical, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by motor-compressors used in appliances which are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, it does not in general take into account:
– the use of appliances by young children or infirm persons without supervision;
– playing with the appliances by young children.
Attention is drawn to the fact that:
– for motor-compressors intended to be used in appliances in vehicles or on board ships, additional requirements could be necessary;
– motor-compressors used in appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas), additional require¬ments could 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.
This standard does not apply to
– motor-compressors designed exclusively for industrial purposes.
This seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2021. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

IEC 60335-2-110:2024 deals with the safety of microwave appliances intended for commercial use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances connected between one phase and neutral and 480 V for other appliances.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by these types of appliances.
Appliances covered by this standard incorporate an open-ended applicator for treatment of the load. They are divided into three types:
- with insertion applicator, typically for moisture removal by insertion into holes in floors, walls or ceilings;
- with large area contacting applicator, typically for drying of floors, walls or ceilings;
- with small area contacting applicator, typically for paint removal and spot-heating.
Microwave appliances with insertion applicator, large area contacting applicator or small area contacting applicator are using electromagnetic energy in one or several of the ISM frequency bands between 300 MHz and 30 GHz, for supplying energy to an external load which is heated so that a resulting process of drying, moisture transport which can result in forces due to formation of steam, decomposition or chemical modification, melting, or termination of organisms such as bacteria or fungus occurs.
Appliances with insertion applicator and with large area contacting applicator are portable appliances. Appliances with small area contacting applicator are handheld appliances.
Appliances that use non-electrical energy are within the scope of this standard. The microwave-related portion is considered motor-operated.
The rationales for the microwave barrier and associated leakage tests are described in informative Annex AA.
Attention is drawn to the fact that

This standard applies to the drying function of washing machines having a drying cycle. This standard also deals with the safety of heat pump type tumble dryers. These appliances may use flammable refrigerants. Additional requirements for these appliances are given in normative Annex AA. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms are within the scope of this standard. Examples of such appliances are tumble dryers for communal use in blocks of flats or in launderettes. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons.
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.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
- for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
- in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities.
This standard does not apply to
- appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;
- appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas);
- appliances incorporating steam generating devices in which steam is produced at a pressure exceeding 50 kPa.

- appliances that blow air through a moist element.
Appliances that are not intended for normal household use, but that nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
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.
Attention is drawn to the fact that
- for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can 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.
This standard does not apply to
- appliances for heating liquids (IEC 60335-2-15);
- humidifiers intended for use with heating, ventilation or air-conditioning systems (IEC 60335-2-88);
- appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601 series);
