IEC 60350-2:2011

Household electric cooking appliances - Part 2: Hobs - Methods for measuring performance

IEC 60350-2:2011 defines methods for measuring the performance of electric hobs for household use. Appliances covered by this standard may be built-in or for placing on a working surface or the floor. The hob can also be a part of a cooking range. This standard defines the main performance characteristics of these appliances which are of interest to the user and specifies methods for measuring these characteristics. This standard does not specify requirements for performance. This first edition of IEC 60350-2 is related to IEC 60350:1999 which shall be separated in two parts: one part for cooking ranges, ovens and steam ovens and the other part for hobs. This part 2 of IEC 60350 covers hobs, and IEC 60350-1 covers ovens.

Appareils de cuisson électrodomestiques - Partie 2: Tables de cuisson - Méthodes de mesure de l'aptitude à la fonction

la CEI 60350-2:2011 définit des méthodes de mesure de l'aptitude à la fonction des tables de cuisson électriques à usage domestique. Les appareils couverts par la présente norme peuvent être encastrés, ou prévus pour être placés sur un plan de travail ou posés sur le sol. La table de cuisson peut également faire partie d'une cuisinière. La présente norme a pour objet de définir les principales caractéristiques d'aptitude à la fonction de ces appareils, qui intéressent l'utilisateur, et de spécifier des méthodes pour la mesure de ces caractéristiques. La présente norme ne spécifie pas les exigences d'aptitude à la fonction. La première édition de la CEI 60350-2 est liée à la CEI 60350:1999, qui doit être séparée en deux parties: une partie consacrée aux cuisinières, aux fours et aux fours à vapeur, et l'autre partie aux tables de cuisson. La présente partie 2 de la CEI 60350 traite des tables de cuisson, et la CEI 60350-1 traite des fours.

Part 2: Hobs – Methods for measuring performance

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees
