AMENDMENT 1
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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to IEC 62885-7:2020 has been prepared by subcommittee 59F: Surface cleaning
appliances, of IEC technical committee 59: Performance of household and similar electrical
appliances.
The text of this Amendment is based on the following documents:

INTRODUCTION
The following changes to IEC 62885-7:2020 concern Clause 1, and Subclauses 8.3.2.1 and
9.1.2.
The reason for this is to clarify the area of application of this standard and to align the
specification on carpets with IEC 62885-2. A new annex on test materials is added as Annex D.

1 Scope
Add the following new paragraph before the last paragraph.
Due to the nature of the way this product operates in the home, comparisons with other types
of surface cleaning appliances (e.g. dry vacuum cleaners) should not be made unless otherwise
indicated. The cleaning performance methods, in particular, are only used to make comparisons
with other dry cleaning robots and not with manually operated vacuum cleaner products.
8.3.2.1 Test bed
Replace the subclause with the following.
Refer to 9.3.
Exception: remove all legs (table, chair, and sofa legs). Replace the carpet with a test carpet
of the same type as defined in 9.1.2 except in terms of length and width.
9.1.2 Carpet
Replace the subclause with the following.
9.1.2.1 General
The test bed is identical to that defined in 9.1.1, except that the floor is covered with test carpet.
Figure 19 shows the configuration of the test bed.

9.1.2.2 Test carpets
The preferred test carpet for international testing and inter-laboratory comparative testing is the
Wilton type carpet. There are three additional carpets of different quality related to cleaning
performance that may be used. These carpets in verified versions are available from suppliers
listed on the IEC website (see Annex D). Specifications on these carpet types are given for
guidance in IEC TS 62885-1.
Category A, B and C test carpets are known to be well controlled and managed in terms of
quality for repeatability and reproducibility for tests of manually operated cleaning devices.
The repeatability and reproducibility of tests with Category A, B and C test carpets for a dry
cleaning robot have not yet been verified, but their assessment is under consideration.
NOTE Category A, B and C test carpets are included for potential use because these carpets are used by many
organizations and laboratories as they are referenced in other ASTM standards for manually operated cleaning
devices.
9.1.2.3 Type and quality of carpets
9.1.2.3.1 General
Whichever carpet that is selected for a test shall be declared in the results, along with the
reason for using that type.
NOTE Information about suppliers providing verified carpets is found in Annex D.
9.1.2.3.2 Wilton carpet
This carpet is of Wilton type, which is the preferred test carpet and shall be used for international
comparative testing. The carpet construction is described in IEC TS 62885-1.
9.1.2.3.3 Category A test carpet
This carpet is a level-loop test carpet also used by ASTM, normally relatively easy to clean and
is an alternative for in-house laboratory testing as a complement to the Wilton type carpet. The
carpet construction is described in IEC TS 62885-1.
9.1.2.3.4 Category B test carpet
This carpet is of tufted type (plush) with medium high pile, normally moderately easy to clean
and is an alternative for in-house laboratory testing as a complement to the Wilton type carpet.
9.1.2.3.5 Category C test carpet
This carpet is of tufted type (shag) with high pile, often difficult to clean, and is an alternative
for in-house laboratory testing as a complement to the Wilton type carpet.
