EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 is a CENELEC European amendment to EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026. It updates the safety requirements for electric commercial amusement machines and personal service machines within the stated voltage limits, and it adds specific instructions for children, people with disabilities and domestic animals. The amendment is read together with the base standard and changes the scope, marking and instructions, annexes and bibliography.
What does EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 specify?
EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 specifies amendments to the European standard for the safety of electric commercial amusement machines and personal service machines. The scope in the base standard covers appliances with rated voltage not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances, including DC supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances.
This amendment is organized as:
- European foreword
- Modification to the Introduction
- Modification to Clause 1, “Scope”
- Modification to Clause 7, “Marking and instructions”
- Modifications to annexes
- Modification to Bibliography
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex ZA | Normative references to international publications with their corresponding European publications |
| Annex ZZA | Relationship to Directive 2014/35/EU - not applicable |
| Annex ZZB | Relationship to Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 - not applicable |
| Annex ZZC | Relationship to Directive 2014/53/EU - not applicable |
What are the key requirements of EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026?
EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 mainly updates how the standard treats foreseeable hazards, user instructions and the presence of domestic animals. In practice, it tells manufacturers and compliance teams to review both the wording of the scope and the wording that appears in the instructions supplied with the appliance.
- Clause 1, Scope - the scope text is replaced so that the document covers reasonably foreseeable hazards of intended use encountered by all persons, including maintenance persons, and domestic animals in and around the home. This matters because safety evaluation is not limited to the intended user only.
- Clause 7, Marking and instructions, 7.12 - the instructions must state that persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, may use the appliance only when supervised or instructed by a person responsible for their safety. This turns the user information into a concrete safety instruction that must be included.
- Clause 7, 7.12 - the instructions must tell the user to keep the appliance out of reach of domestic animals and to check that no domestic animals are inside the cavity or compartments before use. In practice, this is aimed at preventing injuries and misuse where animals can enter or stay inside equipment.
- Clause 7, 7.12 - cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children. This is a direct instruction for the appliance documentation and helps separate user tasks from maintenance tasks.
- Annexes of Part 1 and Part 2 - the amendment states that the annexes of Part 1 and Part 2 apply with the listed modifications. Readers need to use the amended annexes, not the base text alone.
- Annex ZA - the amendment adds normative references to IEC 60065, IEC 60068-2-52 and IEC 62368-1. This matters for anyone checking which external publications the document relies on.
- Bibliography - IEC 60335-2-75 is added to the bibliography. This helps readers trace related appliance safety material.
What terms does EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 define?
- Amusement machines - the commercial machines covered by the standard for entertainment use.
- Personal service machines - the machines covered by the standard for providing personal service functions.
- Rated voltage - the electrical voltage level used to decide whether an appliance falls within the scope.
- Maintenance persons - people who may encounter the appliance during maintenance or servicing.
- Domestic animals - animals living in or around the home that are explicitly considered in the safety wording and instructions.
- Person responsible for their safety - the person who supervises or instructs a user with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or with lack of experience and knowledge.
- Cavity/compartments - enclosed spaces in the appliance that must be checked before use for the presence of domestic animals.
Who uses EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026?
Manufacturers of amusement machines and personal service machines use EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 when designing products, writing instructions and checking safety wording. Test laboratories, certification bodies and compliance engineers use it to verify that the appliance falls within scope and that the supplied information matches the amended requirements.
It is also relevant to quality managers, technical authors and maintenance organizations that need to align product documentation, user warnings and servicing practices with the European safety wording. Because the amendment refers to domestic animals and persons with reduced capabilities, it is particularly useful where appliances are installed in home-like or public-facing environments.
What changed in EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 from the previous edition?
EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 supersedes EN IEC 60335-2-82:2022. The amendment states that its significant technical modifications introduce requirements and instructions for children, people with disabilities and domestic animals.
The stated changes include:
- revised scope wording on reasonably foreseeable hazards
- new instruction text in Clause 7.12 for supervision and use by persons with reduced capabilities
- new instruction text to keep the appliance away from domestic animals and to check for animals before use
- a new instruction that children must not carry out cleaning and user maintenance
Which standards are used with EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026?

What does the EN IEC 60335-2-82:2026/A11:2026 document contain?
The document contains amendment text rather than a full standalone technical standard. It provides the revised wording for the Introduction, Scope, and Clause 7 on marking and instructions, plus modifications to the annexes and bibliography.
Annex ZA lists the normative reference publications used by the amendment and their European equivalents. Annexes ZZA, ZZB and ZZC record the relationship to EU safety and product legislation, and the foreword gives the implementation and withdrawal dates for national adoption.
