IEC 60704-2-7:2020 is available as IEC 60704-2-7:2020 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 60704-2-7:2020 applies to electrical fans (including their accessories and their component parts) for household and similar use, designed for AC or DC supply. The motor, the impeller and their housing, if any, form a single unit. These particular requirements apply to:
– conventional fans,
– table fans,
– pedestal fans,
– ceiling fans,
– bladeless fans,
– wall bracket fans,
– ceiling bracket fans,
– louver fans,
– tower fans,
– ventilating and partition ventilating fans.
This standard does not apply to:
– fans that are part of a ventilation system,
– fans designed exclusively for industrial purposes,
– fans that are part of an appliance (for example cooling fans),
– fans with additional functions (for example heating, humidifying).
Limitations for the use of this test code are given in the scope of IEC 60704-1.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) it includes additional fan categories as defined in IEC 60879:2019 and IEC 60665:2018;
b) it includes standard deviations of sound power levels in 1.3;
c) a comparison method has been added;
d) the normative references have been updated (ISO 3744:2010 and ISO 3743-1:2010);
e) it has been adjusted with regard to IEC 60704-1:2010.
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 60704 1:2010, Household and similar electrical appliances – Test code for the determination of airborne acoustical noise – Part 1: General requirements. This Part 2-7 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 60704-1:2010, so as to establish the test code for fans.

Part 2-7: Particular requirements for fans
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 and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This redline version of the official IEC Standard allows the user to identify the changes
made to the previous edition. A vertical bar appears in the margin wherever a change
has been made. Additions are in green text, deletions are in strikethrough red text.

INTRODUCTION
The measuring conditions specified in this Part 2-7 provide for sufficient accuracy in
determining the noise emitted and the comparison of the results of measurements taken by
different laboratories, whilst simulating as far as possible the practical use of household fans.
It is recommended to consider the determination of noise levels as part of a comprehensive
testing procedure covering many aspects of the properties and performance of household
fans.
NOTE As stated in the introduction to IEC 60704-1, this test code is concerned with airborne noise only.
