Household microwave ovens - Methods for measuring performance

IEC 60705:2010 applies to microwave ovens for household use. It also applies to combination microwave ovens. This standard defines the main performance characteristics of household microwave ovens which are of interest to the user, and it specifies methods for measuring these characteristics. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 1999, its amendment 1 (2004) and its amendment 2 (2006), and constitutes a technical revision. The main changes from the previous edition are as follows: - the definition of rounding is given in 3.5; - the usable volume and the overall volume are respectively determined in 7.2 and 7.3.

Fours à micro-ondes à usage domestique - Méthodes de mesure de l'aptitude à la fonction

La CEI 60705:2010 s'applique aux fours à micro-ondes à usage domestique. Elle s'applique également aux fours à micro-ondes combinés. Cette norme définit les principales caractéristiques d'aptitude à la fonction des fours à micro-ondes à usage domestique qui intéressent les utilisateurs, et spécifie les méthodes de mesure pour évaluer ces caractéristiques. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 1999, son amendement 1 (2004) et son amendement 2 (2006); elle constitue une révision technique. Les changements principaux par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivants: - le terme 'arrondi' est défini en 3.5; - le volume utile et le volume global sont déterminés respectivement en 7.2 et 7.3.

Gospodinjske mikrovalovne pečice - Metode za merjenje lastnosti (IEC 60705:2010)

Standard IEC 60705:2010 se uporablja za mikrovalovne pečice za gospodinjsko uporabo. Uporablja se tudi za kombinirane mikrovalovne pečice. Ta standard določa glavne lastnosti delovanja gospodinjskih mikrovalovnih pečic, ki zanimajo uporabnika, in metode za merjenje teh lastnosti. Ta četrta izdaja preklicuje in nadomešča tretjo izdajo, objavljeno leta 1999, njeno prvo dopolnilo (2004) in drugo dopolnilo (2006) ter tvori tehnično popravljeno izdajo. V primerjavi s prejšnjo izdajo so glavne spremembe naslednje:  – definicija zaokroževanja je podana v točki 3.5;
– uporabna prostornina je opredeljena v točki 7.2, celotna prostornina pa v točki 7.3.
