Appareils électrodomestiques et analogues - Sécurité - Partie 1: Prescriptions générales

La CEI 60335-1:2010 traite de la sécurité des appareils électriques pour usages domestiques et analogues dont la tension assignée n'est pas supérieure à 250 V pour les appareils monophasés et à 480 V pour les autres appareils. Les appareils alimentés par batteries et les autres appareils alimentés en courant continu sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme. Les appareils non destinés à un usage domestique normal mais qui néanmoins peuvent constituer une source de danger pour le public, tels que les appareils destinés à être utilisés par des usagers non avertis dans des magasins, chez des artisans et dans des fermes, sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme. Comme exemples de tels appareils, on peut citer le matériel de restauration, les appareils de nettoyage à usage commercial et les appareils pour les coiffeurs. Les principales modifications de la présente édition par rapport à la quatrième édition sont les suivantes:
- mise à jour du texte pour aligner la norme avec les éditions les plus récentes des références normatives datées;
- modification des exigences de sécurité fonctionnelle utilisant des circuits électroniques programmables, y compris les exigences de validation des logiciels;
- mise à jour de l'Article 29 pour couvrir les exigences de l'isolation soumise à des tensions à fréquence élevée comme, par exemple, dans les circuits d'alimentation à découpage;
- mise à jour du Paragraphe 30.2 pour mieux aligner les options de présélection avec les options d'essai du produit fini;
- suppression de quelques notes et conversion de plusieurs autres notes en texte normatif;
- clarification des exigences pour les parties de la classe III.
L'attention des Comités Nationaux est attirée sur le fait que les fabricants d'appareils et les organismes d'essai peuvent avoir besoin d'une période transitoire après la publication d'une nouvelle publication CEI, ou d'une publication amendée ou révisée, pour fabriquer des produits conformes aux nouvelles exigences et pour adapter leurs équipements aux nouveaux essais ou aux essais révisés.  Le comité recommande que le contenu de cette publication soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 12 mois et au plus tard 36 mois après la date de publication.
Le contenu des corrigenda de juillet 2010 et avril 2011 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.

Gospodinjski in podobni električni aparati - Varnost - 1. del: Splošne zahteve (IEC 60335-1:2010, spremenjen)

COMMON MODIFICATIONS
Introduction
Add after NOTE 1 the following sentence:

For appliances not covered by a particular Part 2 of EN 60335 additional consideration may need to be given

to particular categories of likely users, including vulnerable people and children and to related specific risks

(e.g. access to live parts, or to hot surfaces or to moving parts) that may be covered by a particular Part 2

considered to be closest to the product under examination.
Add:

The principal objectives of the Low Voltage Directive, 2006/95/EC, are covered by this standard. The essential

safety requirements of the following directives, which can be applicable to some household and similar

appliances, have also been taken into account:
- 2006/42/EC – Machinery directive;
- 89/106/EEC – Construction products directive;
- 97/23/EC – Pressure equipment directive.

The Essential Health and Safety Requirements (EHSR) of the Directive 2006/42/EC are covered by Annex

ZE. The application of EN 60335-1 alone does not give presumption of conformity for a product. This is

achieved by complying with the requirements of EN 60335-1 and the relevant Part 2, when this Part 2 is also

listed in the OJ under the Directive.
1 Scope
Replace the scope with the following:

This European Standard deals with the safety of electrical appliances for household environment and

commercial purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase and 480 V for others..

NOTE 1 Battery-operated appliances and other d.c. supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard.

NOTE Z1 Examples of appliance for household environment are appliances for typical housekeeping functions used in

the household environment that may also be used by non expert users for typical housekeeping functions:

• in shops, offices and other similar working environments;
• in farm houses;
• by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;
• in bed and breakfast type environments.

NOTE Z2 Household environment includes the dwelling and its associated buildings, the garden, etc.

Appliances and machines intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in light industry and on

farms, and appliances and machines which are declared to be for commercial use by lay persons are within

the scope of this standard.
Additional requirements for such appliances are given in Annex ZE.
NOTE 2 Text deleted.

- 5 - EN 60335-1:2012

NOTE Z3 Examples of such appliances and machines are catering equipment, cleaning machines for commercial use,

and appliances for hairdressers.

NOTE Z4 Criteria applied for the allocation of products covered by standards in the EN 60335 series under either the

Low Voltage Directive (LVD) or the Machinery Directive (MD) are given for information in Annex ZF.

This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by appliances and machines that are

encountered by all persons.
However, in general, it does not take into account:
• children playing with the appliance;
• the use of the appliance by very young children;
• the use of the appliance by young children without supervision.

It is recognized that very vulnerable people may have needs beyond the level addressed in this standard.

NOTE 3 Attention is drawn to the fact that

– for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary;

– in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities

responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities and similar authorities.

NOTE 4 This standard does not apply to
– appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;

– 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);
– audio, video and similar electronic apparatus (IEC 60065);
– appliances for medical purposes (IEC 60601);
– hand-held motor-operated electric tools (IEC 60745);

every possible position. Through openings, the test probe is applied to any depth that the probe will permit

and is rotated or angled before, during and after insertion to any position. If the opening does not allow the

entry of the probe, the force on the probe in the straight position is increased to 20 N when probe B is used or

10 N when probe 18 is used. If the probe then enters the opening, the test is repeated with the probe in the

angled position. However when using test probe 18 the appliance shall be fully assembled as in normal use

without any parts removed; parts that are intended to be removed for user maintenance shall not be removed.

8.2 Modification

In the third sentence, replace “test probe B of EN 61032” by “test probes of EN 61032”.

Components that have not been previously tested or do not comply with the standard for the relevant

component are tested according to the requirements of 30.2 of this standard.

Components that have been previously tested and shown to comply with the resistance to fire requirements in

the standard for the relevant component need not be retested provided that:

– the severity specified in the component standard is not less than the severity specified in 30.2 of this

standard,
and

– unless the preselection alternative is used, the test report for the component states whether it complied

with the standard for the relevant component with or without flame. Flames existing for a cumulative time

not exceeding 2 s during the test are ignored.

If the above two conditions are not satisfied, the component is tested as part of the appliance.

There are two levels of severity specified for appliances for which 30.2.3 is applicable.

Unless components have been previously tested and found to comply with the relevant standard for the

number of cycles specified, they are tested in accordance with 24.1.1 to 24.1.9. For components mentioned in

24.1.1 to 24.1.9, no additional tests specified in the relevant standard for the component are necessary other

than those specified in 24.1.1 to 24.1.9.

Components that have not been separately tested and found to comply with the relevant standard and

components that are not marked or not used in accordance with their marking, are tested in accordance with

the conditions occurring in the appliance, the number of samples being that required by the relevant standard.

NOTE Z3 For automatic controls, marking includes documentation and declaration as specified in Clause 7 of

EN 60730-1:2000.

Lamp holders and starter holders that have not been previously tested and found to comply with the relevant

standard are tested as a part of the appliance and shall additionally comply with the gauging and

interchangeability requirements of the relevant standard under the conditions occurring in the appliance.

Where the relevant standard specifies these gauging and interchangeability requirements at elevated

temperatures, the temperatures measured during the tests of Clause 11 are used.

There are no additional tests specified for nationally standardized plugs such as those detailed in

IEC/TR 60083 or connectors complying with the standard sheets of IEC 60320-1 and IEC 60309, unless they

are specifically mentioned in the text of this standard.

Plugs and socket-outlets and other connecting devices of interconnection cords shall not be interchangeable

with plugs and socket-outlets listed in IEC/TR 60083 or IEC 60906-1 or with connectors and appliance inlets

complying with the standard sheets of IEC 60320-1, if direct supply to these parts from the supply mains could

give rise to a hazard.
