(Amendment)Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-99: Particular requirements for commercial electric hoods
General Information
- Abstract
This standard deals with the safety of electrically operated commercial hoods intended for installation above commercial cooking appliances such as ranges, griddles, griddle grills and deep fat fryers, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single phase hoods connected between one phase and neutral, and 480 V for other hoods. Only single complete units and hoods supplied as separate parts which when assembled form a complete working hood, incorporating a fan, are within the scope of the standard.
The hood may be used above one or more appliance or types of appliances

Overview
oSIST prEN IEC 60335-2-99:2026/oprA1:2026 sets out particular safety requirements for commercial electric hoods used above commercial cooking appliances. Issued by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST), this standard is aligned with the harmonized European draft prEN IEC 60335-2-99:2026 and its amendment. The document is critical for manufacturers, test laboratories, regulatory bodies, and commercial kitchen operators who need to ensure that electric hoods meet up-to-date safety benchmarks.
The scope includes:
- Electrically operated commercial hoods for installation above ranges, griddles, griddle grills, deep fat fryers, and similar commercial cooking appliances.
- Hoods with a rated voltage not exceeding 250 V for single-phase operation between phase and neutral, and up to 480 V for other types.
- Both complete units and hoods supplied as separate parts that form a complete working hood with a fan.
Key Topics
The standard addresses several important aspects for the safety of commercial electric hoods, including:
- Safety Requirements: Outlines comprehensive safeguards to minimize risks such as fire, electric shock, and mechanical injury during installation and operation.
- Voltage Criteria: Specifies voltage limits for different types of hoods in commercial environments.
- Component Integration: Covers appliances provided as complete units or as modular parts that are assembled into a working hood.
- Applicability Extension: Now explicitly includes direct current (DC) supplied appliances.
- Battery-Powered Devices: With this amendment, battery-operated hoods and related battery provisions are now covered by Part 1, streamlining compliance and referenced testing methods.
Additional topics include definitions, heating requirements, and modifications to prior battery-related clauses, ensuring clarity in interpreting operational conditions and performance expectations.
Applications
This standard is practically indispensable in a range of commercial kitchen environments, ensuring:
- Commercial Kitchens: Safe use of electric hoods in restaurants, cafeterias, hotels, and catering establishments.
- Appliance Manufacturing: Guiding manufacturers in the design, assembly, and testing of compliant electric hoods marketed for professional use.
- Compliance and Certification: Supporting test labs and certification bodies tasked with verifying the conformity of products to established safety criteria.
- Purchase Specifications: Assisting facility managers and procurement professionals in selecting and specifying compliant ventilation equipment.
- Regulatory Oversight: Providing reference material for market surveillance, regulatory enforcement, and risk assessment related to commercial electrical appliances.
By establishing uniform safety requirements, the standard promotes reliable performance, reduces accidents, and facilitates the free movement of standardized appliances throughout European and international markets.
Related Standards
oSIST prEN IEC 60335-2-99:2026/oprA1:2026 is closely related to several other key standards in electrical and appliance safety, including:
