The structure of IEC 60335 is divided into several parts, consisting of general requirements and special requirements. Part 1 contains the general requirements, and the other parts...
For special requirements. For products covered by special requirements, the safety requirements are the general requirements combined with these special requirements, and the specific requirements are applied in conjunction with the general requirements.
The requirements include supplements and modifications to the corresponding clauses in the general requirements to provide complete requirements for each product.
This document outlines the protective measures required for appliances when used normally according to the instructions, addressing risks related to electrical, mechanical, thermal, fire, and radiation.
This document also includes information on abnormal situations that may occur during use, and considers the impact of electromagnetic interference on the safe operation of the equipment.
This document takes into account the requirements specified in GB/T 16895 "Low-voltage electrical installations", and the appliances shall comply with electrical wiring rules when connected to the power supply.
The requirements are consistent and coordinated.
This document provides safety requirements for DC household appliances. If multiple functions of an appliance involve other parts of GB/T 4706, then...
