HOUSEHOLD AND SIMILAR USE ELECTRICAL HAIR CARE APPLIANCES –
METHODS FOR MEASURING THE PERFORMANCE

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
IEC 61855 has been prepared by subcommittee 59L: Small household appliances, of IEC
technical committee 59: Performance of household and similar electrical appliances. It is an
International Standard.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2003. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) the definitions of hair dryers, hair curlers and hair straighteners are updated;
b) the measurement of temperature profile of the outlet air of hair dryers is added;
c) the measurement of temperature profile of the whole work area of hair curlers is added;
d) the measurement of temperature profile of the heating plate of hair straighteners is added;
e) the measurement method for air flow of hair dryers is introduced;
f) the measurement method for anion emission concentration of anion hair dryers is
introduced;

g) the measurement method for tension of hair straighteners is introduced;
h) the service life test for hair dryers, hair curlers and hair straighteners is introduced.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:

4.2 General conditions for measurements
Unless otherwise specified, the measurements are carried out under the conditions of 4.2 to
4.9.
The measurements are made with controls adjusted to their highest setting and when steady
conditions in accordance with 4.8 are established.
NOTE 1 Due to the influence of environmental conditions, variations in time, origin of test materials and proficiency
of the operator, most of the described test methods will give more reliable results when applied for comparative
testing of a number of appliances at the same time, in the same laboratory, and by the same operator.
4.3 Test environment
The tests are carried out in a substantially draught-free room. The ambient temperature is
maintained at (23 ± 2) °C. The relative humidity is maintained at 50 % ± 5 %.
4.4 Limits of voltage variation
During the test, the variation in the voltage shall not exceed ±1 % of the test voltage.
4.5 Test voltage
Unless otherwise specified, the tests are carried out at a specific voltage within a rated voltage
range (e.g.100 V to 240 V) or at the rated voltage or voltages (e.g. 120 V, or 120 V and 240 V).
4.6 Test frequency
The appliances are tested at the rated frequency or within a rated frequency range (e.g. rated
as 50 Hz and 60 Hz, or 50 Hz to 60 Hz).
4.7 Test electrical supply system
Total harmonic distortion of the test electrical supply system shall be less than 5 %.
4.8 Steady conditions
For hair dryers, steady conditions are considered to be established 10 min after switching on
the appliance.
For other appliances, steady conditions are considered to be established 20 min after switching
on the appliance or when the thermostat has operated four times, if this occurs first.

5 Measurements
5.1 Mass of the appliance
The mass of the appliance is determined including the flexible cord, but excluding any
accessory.
The mass of each accessory is measured separately.
The results are expressed in kg to the nearest 0,01 kg.
5.2 Length of the flexible cord
The length of the flexible cord is measured between the point where the cord or cord guard
enters the appliance and the cord entry point of the plug. Coiled cords are stretched with a pull
of 10 N before measurement.
The length is expressed in m rounded down to the nearest 0,05 m.
5.3 Heating-up time
5.3.1 Hair dryer
Not applicable.
5.3.2 Hair curler
The heating-up time of the hair curler is the time taken for the temperature rise of the barrel to
reach 100 K, measured in accordance with 5.4.4.1. The time is expressed in s.
NOTE This temperature rise implies a temperature of approximately 120 °C, which is considered to be the minimum
temperature necessary for curling dry hair.
