Foreword
This document (EN 60350-2:2013) consists of the text of IEC 60350-2:2011 prepared by IEC/SC 59K
"Ovens and microwave ovens, cooking ranges and similar appliances", of IEC/TC 59 "Performance of
household and similar electrical appliances", together with the common modifications prepared by
CLC/TC 59X "Performance of household and similar electrical appliances".
The following dates are fixed:
(dop) 2014-06-03
• latest date by which this document has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards conflicting (dow) 2016-06-03
with this document have to be withdrawn
Together with EN 60350-1:2013, this document will supersede EN 50304:2009/EN 60350:2009 +
A1:2010/A11:2010.
EN 60350-2:2013 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to
EN 50304:2009/EN 60350:2009:
1) a method to measure energy consumption of hobs
a) that is representative for a real cooking process, for which after the heat up phase a
simmering phase has been implemented in the measurement. Water as a standardised load
is used. Food is theoretically considered in the experimental setup but not used as that leads
to insufficient reproducibility. The ranking between the technologies will not be changed by
different methods/applications, so the energy consumption is measured only by one energy
optimised method.
b) that is applicable to compare different electrically heated technologies like e.g. induction,
radiant or solid plates
c) that leads not to a comparison with gas burners. Gas hobs are covered by EN 30-2-1.
d) that fulfil requirements of repeatability and reproducibility (crucial for energy measuring
purposes). Therefore the cooking process is defined on the temperature level 90 °C to avoid
influence on the boiling point by ambient pressure.
e) that is applicable for hobs with different layouts and cooking zone / area sizes.
This method is based on the method described in TC59X/217/DC.
2) definition of cooking areas:
Following new market trends a definition for cooking areas is given. A definition is necessary as
cooking areas have other demands e.g. for positioning the cookware or selecting the cookware sizes
than cooking zones.
3) definition of standardised cookware also for big cooking zone sizes:
For a high reproducibility a standardised cookware shall be used. Therefore a self made cookware is
defined up to a size of 330 mm bottom diameter.Evaporating water by holes in the lid simulates a
cooking process on a higher temperature level. The thermal energy which is needed to keep at
boiling point for a real cooking process including evaporation and the energy uptake of the food
during the simmering phase is considered by the holes.
4) additional requirements (according to EN 50564) how to measure low power modes.

---------------------- Page: 4 ----------------------

SIST EN 60350-2:2013

5) under consideration:
A control procedures for checking measured values in comparison to values declared by the
manufacturer under consideration of permitted tolerances. WG10 with the support and sponsorship of
CECED believes that it is fundamental to proceed with a Round Robin Test procedure of this draft
amendment to confirm requirements of repeatability and reproducibility and to estimate the standard
deviation of the method itself.
Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes which are additional to those in
IEC 60350-2:2011 are prefixed “Z”.
Words in bold in the text are defined in Clause 3.
According to the decision D137/061 for CLC/TC 59X, this European Standard has been drawn up as a
document which follows, as far as suitable, the structure of IEC 60350-2:2011.
It also describes the evaluation of data declared by the manufacturer and control procedures for checking
these values.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association.
This European Standard is suitable for direct comparison and is considered sufficiently reproducible
within given limits for the purpose of setting the ecodesign requirements for hobs according to the
Directive ERP 2009/125/EC.

7.1.Z3Determine a cookware set to assess a hob with cooking zones
The number of pieces of cookware needed to assess a hob shall correspond to the number of controls
which can be used simultaneously and independently.
For selecting sizes and number of cookware pieces, see Table Z4.
Table Z4 – Criteria for cookware set – Cooking zones
Number of cookware used Criteria for cookware set for cooking zones
for tests according to 7.1
From one standardised cookware category according to Table Z3 that is
1
equal to the dimensions of the cooking zone or best fit.
At least from one standardised cookware category according to
2 Table Z3 that are equal to the dimensions of the cooking zones or best
fit.
At least from two standardised cookware categories according to
3 Table Z3 that are equal to the dimensions of the cooking zones or next
best fit cookware category.
At least from three standardised cookware categories according to
4 or more Table Z3 that are equal to the dimensions of the cooking zones or next
best fit cookware category.

For circular multiple zones, the biggest diameter determined according to 6.2.Z2 is considered.
For non circular cooking zones, the cookware size is determined by the short axis measured according
to 6.2.Z2.
If on an induction hob cookware is not detected, the next bigger cookware diameter is chosen
independent from the cookware category.
If a standardised cookware category A-D has to be substituted, the next best fitting cookware is selected.
The cookware with the closest bottom diameter compared to the cooking zone diameter is chosen.

Hereby cookware can be smaller or bigger than the cooking zone. Therefore also smaller diameter of
multiple zones can be considered. Each cooking zone is taken into account only once. The one with
the closest diameter to the cooking zone is the best fitting cookware size.
If a selected cookware size is out of the range of the sizes allowed by the user manual, then the closest
diameter compatible with the defined range has to be chosen.
If it is not clear which cookware size is best fitting, all possibilities are assessed.
NOTE As mentioned in 7.Z1 for multiple zones which include a circular and an elliptical or rectangular part, only the circular part
is tested.
7.1.Z4Positioning the cookware on a cooking zone
On a cooking zone, the cookware is used in the centre.
The centre of an elliptical or similar shaped cooking zone is determined in the intersection of the shortest
and longest axis.
The centre of a rectangular or similar cooking zone is determined in the intersection of the two
diagonals.
If two cooking zones with the same size are available and cookware pieces with different sizes have to
be placed there, then the selection for the bigger cookware size will be made in accordance with the
following order of precedence:
a) cooking zones having higher maximum power;
b) cooking zones being located at the rear of the hob;
c) cooking zones being located at the left.
7.1.Z5 Procedure for measuring the heating up time
Before this measurement is done, the hob has to be operated for at least 10 min to make sure that
residual water in the components is vaporised.
For this measurement, only one control with one cookware shall be switched on.
The cookware is filled with the quantity of potable water specified in Table Z3. The water has a
temperature of 15 °C ± 0,5 °C. The cookware covered with the lid is positioned centrically on the cooking
zone or cooking area.
The cooking zone or cooking area is heated with maximum power.
NOTE 1 If the smaller diameter of multiple zones is considered, the corresponding power is used.
The time taken for the water temperature to rise by 75 K is measured. The test is performed three times.
The average value of the results is determined.
The time is stated in minutes, rounded to the nearest ten seconds.
NOTE 2 Energy consumption can be measured for comparative tests. Residual heat is not taken into account in this case.
7.1.Z6 Procedure for measuring the energy consumption of a cooking process
7.1.Z6.1 General
Before this measurement is done, the hob has to be operated for at least 10 min to make sure that
residual water in the components is vaporized.
For this measurement, only one control with one cookware shall be switched on.
The appliance shall be at ambient temperature.
