Annotation of standard text IEC 60335-2-3-ed.7.0-CMV :

IEC 60335-2-3:2022 CMV contains both the official standard and its commented version. The commented version provides you with a quick and easy way to compare all the changes between IEC 60335-2-3:2022 edition 7.0 and the previous IEC 60335-2-3:2012+AMD1:2015 CSV edition 6.1. Futhermore, comments from IEC TC 61 experts are provided to explain the reasons of the most relevant changes. IEC 60335-2-3:2022 deals with the safety of electric dry irons and steam irons, including those with a separate water reservoir or boiler having a capacity not exceeding 5 l, for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V including direct current (DC) supplied appliances and battery-operated appliances. Appliances not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless can 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. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances, which are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account – persons (including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction; – children playing with the appliance. Attention is drawn to the fact that – for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can 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 authorities responsible for the safety of pressure vessels. and similar authorities. This standard does not apply to – ironers (IEC 60335-2-44); – ironing boards; – appliances designed 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 seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2012 and Amendment 1:2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) alignment with IEC 60335-1:2020; b) deletion or conversion of some notes to normative text (Clause 1, 5.2, 21.101); c) addition of external accessible surface temperature limits (3.6.103, 11.3, 11.8); d) clarification of surfaces likely to be contacted when gripping a handle (22.13); e) clarification of the applicability of 30.2.2 and 30.2.3 (30.2, 30.2.3). This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments unless that edition precludes it; in that case, the latest edition that does not preclude it is used. It was established on the basis of the sixth edition (2020) of that standard. IEC 60335-2-3:2022 traite de la securite des fers a repasser electriques a sec et des fers a vapeur, y compris ceux equipes dun reservoir deau ou dun bouilleur separe dune capacite maximale de 5 l, pour usages domestiques et analogues, et dont la tension assignee des appareils est inferieure ou egale a 250 V, y compris les appareils alimentes en courant continu et les appareils alimentes par batteries. Les appareils non destines a un usage domestique normal, mais qui neanmoins peuvent constituer une source de danger pour le public, tels que les appareils destines a etre utilises par des utilisateurs non avertis dans des magasins, chez des artisans et dans des fermes, sont compris dans le domaine dapplication de la presente norme. Dans la mesure du possible, la presente norme traite des dangers courants que presentent les appareils et auxquels sont exposes tous les individus situes a linterieur et autour de lhabitation. Cependant, elle ne tient en general pas compte – des personnes (y compris des enfants) dont les capacites physiques, sensorielles ou mentales; ou le manque dexperience et de connaissance les empechent dutiliser lappareil en toute securite sans surveillance ou instruction; – des enfants qui jouent avec lappareil. Lattention est attiree sur le fait que – pour les appareils destines a etre utilises dans des vehicules ou a bord de navires ou davions, des exigences supplementaires peuvent etre necessaires; – dans de nombreux pays, des exigences supplementaires sont specifiees par les organismes nationaux de la sante, par les organismes nationaux responsables de la protection des travailleurs, par les organismes nationaux responsables de la securite des recipients sous pression et par des organismes similaires. La presente norme ne sapplique pas – aux machines a repasser (IEC 60335-2-44); – aux planches a repasser; – aux appareils prevus exclusivement pour des usages industriels; – aux appareils destines a etre utilises dans des locaux qui presentent des conditions particulieres, telles que la presence dune atmosphere corrosive ou explosive (poussiere, vapeur ou gaz). Cette septieme edition annule et remplace la sixieme edition parue en 2012 et lAmendement 1:2015. Cette edition constitue une revision technique. Cette edition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport a ledition precedente: a) le texte a ete aligne sur lIEC 60335-1:2020; b) certaines notes ont ete converties en texte normatif (Article 1, 5.2, 21.101); c) des limites de temperature ont ete ajoutees pour les surfaces accessibles exterieures (3.6.103, 11.3, 11.8); d) les surfaces susceptibles detre en contact lors de la prehension dune poignee ont ete explicitees (22.13); e) lapplicabilite des 30.2.2 et 30.2.3 a ete explicitee (30.2, 30.2.3). La presente partie 2 doit etre utilisee conjointement avec la derniere edition de lIEC 60335-1 et ses amendements sauf si cette edition lexclut. Dans ce cas, la derni
