Overview

The European Standard SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2021/A1:2024 focuses on the safety requirements for commercial microwave appliances designed with insertion or contacting applicators. It applies to microwave appliances intended for commercial use with rated voltages up to 250 V for single-phase units and up to 480 V for other appliances. Developed under the direction of CLC and aligned with IEC/TC 61 standards, this amendment (A1) updates the safety protocols to enhance hazard identification and operational safety in professional environments.

Key Topics

This standard amendment emphasizes the following critical aspects:

• Safety Markings and Symbols
  Incorporation of internationally recognized safety symbols such as ISO 3864-1, ISO 7010, IEC 60417 series to warn users about microwave hazards and radiation exposure. These graphical warnings include:

  • Caution for non-ionizing radiation.
  • "Keep out of microwave radiation" sign.
  • Restricted access indication to prevent unauthorized entry.

• Explicit Safety Instructions
  New mandatory warnings require manufacturers to instruct users on:

  • Switching off and unplugging the device before cleaning or maintenance.
  • Avoiding damage or entanglement of the flexible supply cord, especially near energized microwave parts.
  • Reading the instruction sheets thoroughly.

• Design and Construction Requirements

  • Danger indicators such as lights and alarm switches must be red to ensure immediate visibility.
  • Restricted areas due to microwave energy hazards must be clearly marked and physically inaccessible, improving workplace safety.

• Voltage and Appliance Scope
  The standard applies to commercial microwave ovens operating at single-phase voltages not exceeding 250 V or other types up to 480 V. This ensures safety coverage across typical commercial kitchen appliance voltages.

• Compliance and Implementation
  CENELEC mandates national standard adoption by November 2024, enforcing withdrawal of conflicting standards by November 2026 to unify commercial microwave appliance safety across Europe.

Applications

This standard is essential for:

• Commercial Kitchen Equipment Manufacturers
  Ensuring microwave ovens with insertion or contacting applicators meet rigorous safety requirements, reducing risks related to microwave radiation and electrical hazards.

• Safety Testing Laboratories
  Applying uniform test procedures to verify compliance with updated safety warnings and construction requirements before product release.

• Commercial Food Service Providers
  Guaranteeing that microwave appliances used in professional kitchens adhere to best practices for operator safety and workplace hazard communication.

• Regulatory Bodies and Standardization Committees
  Harmonizing safety regulations to facilitate market surveillance and limit product liability issues related to electromagnetic and electrical safety.

• Procurement and Facility Managers
  Selecting compliance-certified microwave appliances to enhance operational safety, maintain legal conformity, and reduce downtime due to equipment failure or accidents.

Related Standards

To ensure comprehensive safety, SIST EN IEC 60335-2-110:2021/A1:2024 references and complements several key international standards:

• IEC 60335 Series – General requirements for household and similar electrical appliances.
• ISO 3864-1 – Design principles for graphical safety symbols and color schemes.
• ISO 7010 – Registered safety signs for consistent hazard communication.
• IEC 60417 – Graphical symbols for electrical equipment.
• IEC 60335-2-6 and IEC 60335-2-24 – Related to microwave ovens and other heating appliances.

Compliance with these standards ensures appliances are marked and constructed to minimize user risk and promote safety awareness in commercial environments.
