Xiangjie: UL, and IEC standards for small household electrical appliances in general differences

At present, production

Kitchen small appliances

Chia Tai exported to Europe and the United States, exports need to meet IEC, UL and other standards to overseas markets. Small kitchen appliances but the UL and IEC standards have not been coordinated, the work needs to be done to coordinate some complex differences between the standards. Meanwhile, UL standards are continuously updated to minimize the barriers between the future coordination of standards.

UL and IEC standards for comparison

IEC standards for small appliances mainly composed of two parts: IEC60335-1 standards for household and similar purposes

Electrical

Products

Security

General requirements put forward, and IEC60335-1 standard supporting the use of still IEC60335-2 Standard. IEC60335-2 Standard is the standard IEC60335-1 supplement were developed for all types of home appliances. Kitchen small appliances Total 4 IEC60335-2 family of standards, that is, IEC60335-2-9, IEC60335-2-13, IEC60335-2-14 and IEC60335-2-15. IEC60335-2-9 that "grill, roast

Bread

Machines and similar portable cooking equipment, specific requirements, "also applies to waffle machine, bread maker, oven,

Grills

, Baking trays and other similar small household electrical appliances; IEC60335-2-13 that is "hot frying pan, frying pans and similar product-specific requirements"; IEC60335-2-15 that "the specific requirements of the liquid heating products" for

Coffee

Pot,

Electric kettle

, Cooking pots, yogurt machine, egg machines and other similar small appliances; IEC60335-2-14 that "kitchen

Estate

The special requirements of goods, "applied to food

Processor

,

Grinding machine

,

Slicer

, Sharpening device, centrifugal

Juicer

And other small household electrical appliances.

In the U.S. market, the four types of products were applicable product standards: UL1026 "home electricity

Cooker

And

Food

Processing product standards "), UL1083" home electric skillet and frying pan-type product standards ", UL1082" home electric coffee maker and brewing products standards "and UL982" Standard for household electric food processor. "

Technical differences

(1) leakage current

Test

Measuring leakage current of devices in UL and IEC standards as described in seemingly different. But in fact, the measurement operation the difference was not large, but

Measuring instruments

Requirements vary.

Leakage current measurement instrument type UL1026, UL1082, UL1083 and UL982 standards are clearly defined. General market supply leakage current

Tester

For "perception" leakage current, usually meet the basic requirements of UL standards. However, these standards did not consider at this stage and non-sinusoidal high frequency leakage current. When the need to consider high-frequency and non-sinusoidal leakage current, the measuring instrument will be necessary to meet the UL101 standard "equipment leakage current standard" requirements.

The past, the leakage current value is the milliamp (mA) units. Now, in keeping with the latest version of "American Electric leakage current national standards-ANS

IC

101-1992 "requirement, expressed as a unit with MIU. MIU measuring instrument can be designated to read out the figures. Numerically, MIU only low-frequency consistent with mA. High frequency, the flow through the instrument of mA values are much larger than the display value of MIU. Therefore, the measurement should not use MIU mA leakage current is measured in units.

IEC60335 standard is IEC60990 standard creepage requirements based on the provisions, and its leakage test should be on any of its up to 1MHz frequency of the peak current to respond. UL product standards in

Test Equipment

And IEC standards are inconsistent.

(2) Dielectric strength test

For the nominal voltage 120V products, in addition to electric knife outside, UL standard insulation withstand voltage test of the test voltage is usually 1000V, time for 1 minute.
