Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-34: Particular requirements for motor-compressors (IEC 60335-2-34:2021)
This European Standard deals with the safety of sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-compressors, their protection and control systems, if any, which are intended for use in equipment for household and similar purposes and which conform with the standards applicable to such equipment. It applies to motor-compressors tested separately, under the most severe conditions that may be expected to occur in normal use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase motor-compressors and 480 V for other motor-compressors.

IEC 60335-2-34:2021 est disponible sous forme de IEC 60335-2-34:2021 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 60335-2-34:2021 traite de la sécurité des motocompresseurs étanches (de type hermétique et hermétique accessible) et, le cas échéant, de leurs systèmes de protection et de commande, qui sont destinés à être utilisés sur les appareils électrodomestiques et analogues et qui sont conformes aux normes applicables à de tels matériels. Elle s'applique aux motocompresseurs soumis à l'essai séparément, dans les conditions les plus défavorables qui peuvent se produire en usage normal, dont la tension assignée est inférieure ou égale à 250 V pour les motocompresseurs monophasés et à 600 V pour les autres motocompresseurs.
La présente norme couvre également:
- les motocompresseurs à plusieurs vitesses, qui sont des motocompresseurs dont la vitesse peut être réglée sur différentes valeurs;
- les motocompresseurs à capacité variable, qui sont des motocompresseurs dont la capacité du compresseur est contrôlée à des vitesses fixes.
Des exemples d'appareils équipés de motocompresseurs sont:
- les sèche-linge (IEC 60335-2-11);
- les appareils de réfrigération, les sorbetières et les fabriques de glace (IEC 60335-2-24);
- les pompes à chaleur électriques, les climatiseurs et les déshumidificateurs (IEC 60335-2-40);
- les distributeurs commerciaux avec ou sans moyen de paiement (IEC 60335-2-75);
- les appareils de réfrigération et fabriques de glace à usage commercial avec une unité de fluide frigorigène ou un motocompresseur incorporés ou à distance (IEC 60335-2-89);
- exigences de sécurité pour les appareils électriques de mesurage, de régulation et de laboratoire – exigences particulières pour les appareils de réfrigération (IEC 61010-2-011);
- les fabriques de crème glacée à usage professionnel (IEC 60335-2-118);
- les systèmes frigorifiques et pompes à chaleur – conception, construction, essais, marquage et documentation (ISO 5149-2).
La présente norme ne remplace pas les exigences des normes applicables aux appareils dans lesquels sont utilisés les motocompresseurs. Toutefois, si le type de motocompresseur utilisé est conforme à la présente norme, il peut ne pas être nécessaire d'effectuer les essais sur l'appareil ou l'ensemble particulier pour les motocompresseurs spécifiés dans les normes applicables à ces appareils. Si le dispositif de commande du motocompresseur est associé au dispositif de commande d'un appareil particulier, il peut être nécessaire d'effectuer des essais supplémentaires sur l'appareil final.
Dans la mesure du possible, la présente norme traite des dangers courants que présentent les motocompresseurs utilisés dans des appareils et auxquels sont exposés tous les individus situés à l'intérieur et autour de l'habitation. Cependant, cette norme ne tient pas compte en général:
- de l'utilisation des appareils par de jeunes enfants ou des personnes handicapées sans surveillance;
- de l'utilisation des appareils comme jouet par de jeunes enfants.
L'attention est attirée sur le fait que:
- pour les motocompresseurs destinés à être utilisés dans des véhicules ou à bord de navires, des exigences supplémentaires peuvent être nécessaires;
- dans de nombreux pays, des

Part 2-34: Particular requirements for motor-compressors
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 part of IEC 60335 has been prepared by subcommittee 61C: Safety of refrigeration
appliances for household and commercial use, of IEC Technical Committee 61: Safety of
household and similar electrical appliances.
This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2012, Amendment 1:2015
and Amendment 2:2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

INTRODUCTION
It has been assumed in the drafting of this International Standard that the execution of its
provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced persons.
This standard recognizes the internationally accepted level of protection against hazards such
as electrical, mechanical, thermal, fire and radiation of appliances when operated as in normal
use taking into account the manufacturer's instructions It also covers abnormal situations that
can be expected in practice and takes into account the way in which electromagnetic
phenomena can affect the safe operation of appliances.
This standard takes into account the requirements of IEC 60364 as far as possible so that there
is compatibility with the wiring rules when the appliance is connected to the supply mains.
However, national wiring rules may differ.
If an appliance within the scope of this standard also incorporates functions that are covered
by another part 2 of IEC 60335, the relevant part 2 is applied to each function separately, as
far as is reasonable. If applicable, the influence of one function on the other is taken into
account.
When a part 2 standard does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with in
Part 1, Part 1 applies.
NOTE 1 This means that the technical committees responsible for the part 2 standards have determined that it is
not necessary to specify particular requirements for the appliance in question over and above the general
requirements.
This standard is a product family standard dealing with the safety of appliances and takes
precedence over horizontal and generic standards covering the same subject.
NOTE 2 Horizontal and generic standards covering a hazard are not applicable since they have been taken into
consideration when developing the general and particular requirements for the IEC 60335 series of standards. For
example, in the case of temperature requirements for surfaces on many appliances, generic standards, such as
ISO 13732-1 for hot surfaces, are not applicable in addition to Part 1 or part 2 standards.
An appliance that complies with the text of this standard will not necessarily be considered to
comply with the safety principles of the standard if, when examined and tested, it is found to
have other features that impair the level of safety covered by these requirements.
An appliance employing materials or having forms of construction differing from those detailed
in the requirements of this standard may be examined and tested according to the intent of the
requirements and, if found to be substantially equivalent, may be considered to comply with the
standard.
If testing of the motor-compressor includes testing in accordance with Annex AA,
temperatures of the motor-compressor windings, housing and other parts related to the
motor-compressor, such as terminals, internal wiring and insulating materials, are not
measured when the complete appliance in which the motor-compressor is used is tested.
These requirements apply to sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-compressors
with their associated starting, cooling capacity control and protection systems, tested separately
under the most severe conditions of the refrigerating system operation which, within reasonable
limits, could occur in the applications for which they are used.
In particular, the construction detail inspection and locked-rotor testing may be done separately
on the motor-compressor, thereby eliminating the need for inspection and testing when the
motor-compressor is applied to many different appliances and factory-built assemblies.

Operational tests may also be conducted on the motor-compressor separately in certain
circumstances. The specification for this type testing is provided in Annex AA. However, the
tests of the existing standards relevant to the given kind of application, such as
IEC 60335-2-24 and IEC 60335-2-40, may need to be conducted on the final application and
used as the final determination of acceptability.

HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES –
SAFETY –
Part 2-34: Particular requirements for motor-compressors
1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following.
This part of IEC 60335 deals with the safety of sealed (hermetic and semi-hermetic type) motor-
compressors, their protection and control systems, if any, which are intended for use in
equipment for household and similar purposes and which conform with the standards applicable
to such equipment. It applies to motor-compressors tested separately, under the most severe
conditions that may be expected to occur in normal use, their rated voltage being not more
than 250 V for single-phase motor-compressors and 600 V for other motor-compressors.
This standard also covers
– multi-speed motor-compressors, that are motor-compressors, the speed of which can be
set to different values;
– variable capacity motor-compressors that are motor-compressors where the capacity of
the compressor is controlled at fixed speeds.
NOTE 101 Examples of equipment which contain motor-compressors are
– tumble dryers (IEC 60335-2-11);
– refrigerating appliances, ice-cream appliances and ice-makers (IEC 60335-2-24);
– electrical heat pumps, air-conditioners and dehumidifiers (IEC 60335-2-40);
– commercial dispensing appliances and vending machines (IEC 60335-2-75);
– commercial refrigerating appliances and ice-makers with an incorporated or remote refrigerant unit or
compressor (IEC 60335-2-89);
– electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use (IEC 61010-2-011);
– professional ice-cream makers (IEC 60335-2-118);
– refrigerating systems and heat pumps (ISO 5149-2).
This standard does not supersede the requirements of standards relevant to the particular
appliance in which the motor-compressor is used. However, if the motor-compressor type
used complies with this standard, the tests for the motor-compressor specified in the particular
appliance standard may not need to be made in the particular appliance or assembly. If the
motor-compressor control system is associated with the particular appliance control system,
additional tests could be necessary on the final appliance.
So far as is practical, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by motor-
compressors used in appliances which are encountered by all persons in and around the home.
However, it does not in general take into account
– the use of appliances by young children or infirm persons without supervision;
– playing with the appliances by young children.
NOTE 102 Attention is drawn to the fact that
– for motor-compressors intended to be used in appliances in vehicles or on board ships, additional requirements
could be necessary;
– in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national
authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities.

This standard does not apply to
– motor-compressors designed exclusively for industrial purposes;
– motor-compressors used in appliances intended to be used in locations where special
conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust,
vapour or gas).
NOTE 103 If motor-compressors for refrigerant R-744 used in appliances with a transcritical refrigeration
system are equipped with pressure relief devices, compliance with the requirements for these devices is checked
during the tests on the final appliance.
