Foreword

This document was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2020

"Directives for standardization - Part 1.Rules for the structure and drafting of

standardizing documents".

This document is Part 17 of GB/T 4706 "Safety of household and similar electrical

appliances". The following parts of GB/T 4706 have been issued.

- Part 1.General requirements;

- Part 2.Particular requirements for electric irons;

- Part 121.Particular requirements for professional ice-cream makers.

This document replaces GB 4706.17-2010 "Safety of household and similar electrical

appliances -- Particular requirements for motor-compressors". Compared with GB

4706.17-2010, in addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main

technical changes in this document are as follows.

- Change the applicable range of rated voltage of the appliance (see Chapter 1 of this

Edition; Chapter 1 of Edition 2010). Add examples of types of devices equipped

with motor-compressors (see Chapter 1 of this Edition);

- Add the term definitions and related test requirements for application categories

(see 3.1.102, Annex AA of this Edition);

- Add the definition of two-stage motor-compressor (see 3.5.102 of this Edition);

- Add the term and definition of motorette and winding wire compatibility test (see

3.8.102, Annex BB of this Edition);

- Add speed requirements for variable speed motor-compressor tests (see 5.6 of this

Edition);

- Add the requirement to declare the type of protection used by the motor (see 5.102,

6.104 of this Edition);

- Add test requirements for cascade systems containing two or more motor-

compressors (see 5.103 of this Edition);

- Add the fire protection signs for flammable refrigerants and their use requirements

(see 7.1 and 7.6 of this Edition);

- Add requirements for warning sign height (see 7.14 of this Edition);

- Add requirements to replace the heating test in Chapter 11 with Annex AA. Clarify

the heating test requirements for motor-compressors that do not need to undergo

the Annex AA test according to classification (see Chapter 11 of this Edition);

- Add optional fatigue test (see 18.101, Annex EE of this Edition);

- Add motor-compressor fault test with electronic circuit (see 19.11.2, AA.3 of this

Edition);

- Add requirements for motor-compressors when using flammable refrigerants for

related tests (see 19.13, 24.101 of this Edition);

- Add pressure test for subcritical refrigeration system and transcritical refrigeration

system using R744 refrigerant (see 22.7 of this Edition);

- Add insulation material compatibility test (see 22.9, Annex BB and Annex CC of

this Edition);

- Add the minimum insulation thickness requirements for easily accessible

reinforced insulation at different rated voltages (see 29.1, 29.3.4 of this Edition);

- Add the requirements for electrical clearances for motor-compressors applicable to

high altitudes (see 29.1 of this Edition);

- Change the operating overload test conditions (see AA.1, AA.2, AA.3 of this

Edition; Annex AA of Edition 2010).

This document identically adopts IEC 60335-2-34.2021 "Household and similar

electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-34.Particular requirements for motor-

compressors".

The following minimal editorial changes were made to this document.

- The name of the standard was changed to "Safety of household and similar

electrical appliances - Part 17.Particular requirements for motor-compressors" to

enhance the coordination of the standard system.
