Household electric cooking appliances - Part 2: Hobs - Methods for measuring performance
IEC 60350-2:2025 defines methods for measuring the performance of electric hobs for household use. Appliances covered by this document can be built-in or designed to be placed on a work surface. The hob can be part of a cooking range and it can have an integrated cooking fume extractor, i.e. a hob with down-draft system . This document defines the main performance characteristics of hobs which are of interest to the user and specifies methods for measuring these characteristics. This document does not specify a classification or ranking for performance. Some of the tests which are specified in this document are not considered to be reproducible since the results can vary between laboratories. They are therefore intended for comparative testing purposes only. This document does not deal with safety requirements (IEC 60335-2-6 and IEC 60335-2-9). This document is also applicable for portable appliances with similar functionality. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017 and Amendment 1:2021. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) new definitions for portable hob, hob with down-draft system and low power modes are amended in Clause 3; b) revision of Clause 5: Tolerance for water amount added, requirements for dimension measurement added; c) removal of 6.4 Level of solid hotplates; d) revision of Clause 7 in order to improve the application of the smoothing average; e) revision of Table 1 and Table 3 in order to amend missing tolerances: f) Ry replaced by L* in Clause 9 and reference to IEC TS 63350; g) requirements for digital assessment in 9.1.6 removed as they are covered in IEC TS 63350; h) revision of Clause 12 Power measurement of low power modes; i) removal of Clause 13 Spillage capacity of hobs; j) Annex G Low-power mode measurements added; k) removal of Annex D 'Shade chart' as the shade charts are specified in IEC TS 63350; l) removal of Annex E 'Data and calculation sheet' as the calculation sheet is substituted by a supporting document located on the IEC web site; m) update of former Annex F 'Addresses of suppliers' by removal of former Clause F.6, F.7 and F.8 and by adding a further possible supplier in new D.4
Elektrische Kochgeräte für den Hausgebrauch - Teil 2: Kochfelder - Verfahren zur Messung der Gebrauchseigenschaften
Appareils de cuisson électrodomestiques - Partie 2: Tables de cuisson - Méthodes de mesure de l'aptitude à la fonction
L'IEC 60350-2:2025 définit les méthodes de mesure de l'aptitude à la fonction des tables de cuisson électriques à usage domestique. Les appareils couverts par le présent document peuvent être encastrés ou prévus pour être placés sur un plan de travail. La table de cuisson peut faire partie d'une cuisinière et peut comporter un extracteur de fumée de cuisine intégré, c'est-à-dire qu'il peut s'agir d'une table de cuisson avec extracteur vertical. Le présent document définit les principales caractéristiques d'aptitude à la fonction de la table de cuisson qui intéressent les utilisateurs, et spécifie les méthodes de mesure de ces caractéristiques. Le présent document ne spécifie pas un système de classement pour l'aptitude à la fonction de ces appareils. Certains essais spécifiés dans le présent document ne sont pas considérés comme reproductibles, car les résultats peuvent varier d'un laboratoire à l'autre. Ils sont donc prévus à titre d'essais comparatifs uniquement. Le présent document ne traite pas des exigences de sécurité (IEC 60335-2-6 et IEC 60335-2-9). Le présent document s'applique également aux appareils mobiles équipés de fonctionnalités similaires. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2017 et l'Amendement 1:2021. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) les nouvelles définitions relatives à la table de cuisson portative (3.24) , à la table de cuisson avec extracteur vertical (3.23) et aux modes faible puissance ont été modifiées à l'Article 3; b) l'Article 5 a été révisé; une tolérance a été ajoutée pour le volume d'eau, et des exigences ont été ajoutées pour le mesurage des dimensions; c) le Paragraphe 6.4 "Horizontalité des plaques chauffantes pleines" a été supprimé; d) l'Article 7 a été révisé afin d'améliorer l'application de la moyenne lissée; e) le Tableau 1 et le Tableau 3 ont été révisés afin de modifier les tolérances manquantes; f) Ry a été remplacé par L* à l'Article 9 et l'IEC TS 63350 est référencée; g) les exigences relatives à l'évaluation numérique du 9.1.6 ont été supprimées, car elles sont couvertes par l'IEC TS 63350; h) l'Article 12 "Mesure de puissance des modes de faible puissance" a été révisé; i) l'Article 13 "Capacité des tables de cuisson à retenir les liquides répandus" a été supprimé; j) l'Annexe G "Mesurage des modes faible puissance" a été ajoutée; k) l'Annexe D intitulée "Nuancier" a été supprimée, car les nuanciers sont spécifiés dans l'IEC TS 63350; l) l'Annexe E intitulée "Fiche technique et feuille de calcul" a été supprimée, car la feuille de calcul a été remplacée par un document de support situé sur le site web de l'IEC; m) l'ancienne Annexe F intitulée "Adresses de fournisseurs" a été mise à jour par suppression des anciens Articles F.6, F.7 et F.8 et par ajout d'un autre fournisseur possible dans le nouvel Article D.4.
