1 Modification to the Introduction
Addition:
With European Amendment A11 the EN 60335-2-4:2010+A1:2015+A11:2018+A2:2019 is superseded.
This European Amendment A11 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of the standards
below:
— EN 60335-1:2012+A11:2014+A13:2017+A1:2019+A14:2019+A2:2019+A15:2021+A16:2023 (Part 1)
— EN IEC 60335-2-4:2023 (Part 2)
2 Modification to the “Scope”
Replace the text starting with “As far as is practicable.” up to “…explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or
gas)” by the following:
“This document deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances that are
encountered by all persons.
However, in general, it does not take into account:
— children playing with the appliance;
— the use of the appliance by very young children;
— the use of the appliance by young children without supervision.
It is recognized that very vulnerable people can have needs beyond the level addressed in this
document.
This document does not apply to
— spin extractors intended to be used in launderettes (EN 50569),
— spin extractors intended exclusively for industrial purposes,
— spin extractors intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the
presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).
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 and
similar authorities.”
3 Modification to Clause 7, “Marking and instructions”
7.12.1 Replace “lid” by “lid or door”.
7.101 Replace “lid” by “lid or door” (two times).
