IEC 60335-2-2:2019 deals with the safety of electric vacuum cleaners and water suction cleaning appliances for household and similar purposes, including vacuum cleaners for animal grooming, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. It also applies to centrally-sited vacuum cleaners and automatic battery-operated cleaners.
\nThis standard also applies to motorized cleaning heads and current-carrying hoses associated with a particular vacuum cleaner.
\nBattery-operated appliances and other DC supplied appliances are within the scope of this standard. Dual supply appliances, either mains-supplied or battery-operated, are regarded as battery-operated appliances when operated in the battery mode.
\nAppliances not intended for normal household use, but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops and other premises for normal housekeeping purposes, are within the scope of this standard.
\nExamples of such appliances are appliances intended to be used for normal housekeeping purposes in hotels, offices, schools, hospitals and similar premises.
\nAs far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account
\n\u2013 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;
\n\u2013 children playing with the appliance.
\nAttention is drawn to the fact that:
\n\u2013 for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary;
\n\u2013 in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour, the national water supply authorities and similar authorities.
\nThis standard does not apply to:
\n\u2013 appliances intended exclusively for industrial purposes;
\n\u2013 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);
\n\u2013 wet and dry vacuum cleaners, including power brush, for commercial use (IEC 60335-2-69).
\nThis seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2009, Amendment 1:2012 and Amendment 2:2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
\nThis edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
\n\u2013 some requirements for appliances for animal grooming have been modified (6.1, 25.7)
\n\u2013 the note in 7.101 has been deleted;
\n\u2013 converted some notes to normative text (7.102, 10.1, 11.3, 13.1, 15.2, 15.101, 19.101, 20.1, 20.2, 21.103, 21.105, 22.32, 25.23);
\n\u2013 clarification that the test of 19.7 is applicable to vacuum cleaners with a motorized brush or similar device;
\n\u2013 modified Annex R for alignment with 22.201 of Annex B;
\n\u2013 modified Annex S in accordance with IEC 60335-2-2:2009\/ISH1:2016.
\nThis Part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments. It was established on the basis of the fifth edition (2010) of that standard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
