Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 1: General requirements
IEC 60335-1:2010 deals with the safety of electrical appliances for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances. Battery-operated appliances and other d.c. supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard. Examples of such appliances are catering equipment, cleaning appliances for commercial use, and appliances for hairdressers. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the fourth edition are as follows:
- updated the text of the standard to align with the most recent editions of the dated normative references;
- modified the functional safety requirements using programmable electronic circuits including software validation requirements;
- updated Clause 29 to cover insulation requirements subjected to high frequency voltages as in switch mode power supply circuits;
- updated Subclause 30.2 to further align the pre-selection option with the end-product test option;
- deleted some notes and converted many other notes to normative text;
- clarified requirements for class III constructions.
The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 12 months or later than 36 months from the date of publication.
The contents of the corrigenda of July 2010 and April 2011 have been included in this copy.

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.

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);

This European Standard/Harmonization Document falls under the EU Directives 2006/95/EC and 2006/42/EC.
NOTE (from CEN/CENELEC IR Part 2:2006, 2.17) Where standards fall under EC Directives, it is the view of the
Commission of the European Communities (OJ No C 59, 1982-03-09) that the effect of the decision of the Court of Justice
in case 815/79 Cremonini/Vrankovich (European Court Reports 1980, p. 3583) is that compliance with A-deviations is no
longer mandatory and that the free movement of products complying with such a standard should not be restricted except
under the safeguard procedure provided for in the relevant Directive.
A-deviations in an EFTA-country are valid instead of the relevant provisions of the European
Standard/Harmonization Document in that country until they have been removed.
