SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 is a SIST-published European amendment to the safety standard for commercial microwave appliances with insertion or contacting applicators. It updates the wording for scope, marking and instructions, annex references and bibliography, so it is mainly a companion document for people applying EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026 in design, instruction writing and conformity work.

What does SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 specify?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 specifies amendments to EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026 for commercial microwave appliances with insertion or contacting applicators. It is read together with Part 1 and Part 2, and it changes how the standard frames foreseeable hazards, user instructions and referenced publications.

The amendment is organized into:

• modification to the Introduction
• modification to Clause 1, “Scope”
• modification to Clause 7, “Marking and instructions”
• modifications to annexes
• modification to the Bibliography

What are the key requirements of SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 mainly tightens the user-information side of the standard. The practical effect is that manufacturers and technical writers must align the appliance instructions and scope wording with the intended user groups and the hazards covered by the standard.

Scope and intended users

The revised scope wording focuses on reasonably foreseeable hazards of intended use encountered by instructed persons or skilled persons. In practice, this narrows the way the appliance is presented: the instructions and safety concept need to match trained or informed use, not general consumer use.

The European foreword says the amendment introduces requirements and instructions for children, people with disabilities and domestic animals. For users, that means the appliance documentation must address who may operate it and who must not perform cleaning or maintenance.

Marking and instructions

Clause 7.12 replaces the instruction text with requirements that the instructions state the substance of several points:

• appliances shall be operated only by instructed persons or skilled persons
• a person with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities may use the appliance when instructed by skilled persons
• children shall not carry out cleaning or user maintenance

In practice, this is the part most likely to affect manuals, training notes and warning labels. It shifts the focus from a general warning to specific user roles and tasks that must be controlled.

Annexes and references

The amendment states that the annexes of Part 1 and Part 2 apply except as modified here. Annex ZA adds the normative references that become part of the document’s requirements, so those publications matter when the appliance design or marking uses the referenced subjects.

Annexes ZZA, ZZB and ZZC are listed as informative relationship annexes and are not applicable. That tells a reader that this amendment is not being used to map coverage to those legal frameworks in this document.

What terms does SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 define?

The amendment uses these key terms in its instructions and scope wording:

• Instructed person - a person allowed to operate the appliance when the person has the right level of instruction for the task.
• Skilled person - a person with the competence to instruct others and to supervise or perform the relevant appliance use.
• Children - the group explicitly excluded from cleaning and user maintenance in the instruction text.
• People with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities - users who may use the appliance only when instructed by skilled persons.
• Domestic animals - a user-safety concern named in the foreword as part of the amendment’s technical intent.
• A11 - the amendment identifier used to show that this document changes the base standard.

Who uses SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 is used by manufacturers of commercial microwave appliances with insertion or contacting applicators, and by their design, safety and technical documentation teams. It is also relevant to quality managers, conformity assessors, test laboratories and buyers who need to check whether the appliance instructions and safety wording match the standard. The amendment is especially useful where the product is intended for instructed or skilled persons rather than general household users.

What changed in SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 from the previous edition?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 supersedes EN IEC 60335-2-110:2021+A1:2023. The stated changes are:

• a revised Introduction
• a revised scope paragraph in Clause 1
• updated marking and instruction text in Clause 7.12
• modifications to the annexes
• additions to the Bibliography

Which standards are used with SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 is read in conjunction with EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026 and with EN IEC 60335-1:2023+A11:2023+A12:2026. Annex ZA also names the publications that contribute requirements or supporting technical content:

• IEC 60335-2-90 - commercial microwave ovens
• ISO 898-1 - mechanical properties of carbon and alloy steel fasteners
• ISO 3506-1, ISO 3506-2, ISO 3506-3, ISO 3506-4 - corrosion-resistant stainless steel fasteners
• ISO 3864-1 - design principles for safety signs and safety markings
• ISO 7010 - registered safety signs

For a reader, these references matter because they tell you which external rules apply when the appliance uses related components, fasteners or safety signs.

What does the SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 document contain?

SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2026/A11:2026 is a short amendment document, not a full product standard. Its contents are a European foreword, textual modifications to the Introduction, Clause 1 and Clause 7, annex updates, and bibliography additions.

Annex ZA gives a table of normative references to international publications and their corresponding European publications. The document also lists Annexes ZZA, ZZB and ZZC, which are marked as not applicable.
