This International Standard deals with the safety of electrically operated commercial boiling
pans not intended for household use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for
single-phase appliances connected between one phase and neutral, and 480 V for other
appliances.
The electrical part of appliances making use of other forms of energy is also within the scope
of this standard.
As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by these
types of appliances.
Additional requirements for appliances with power driven moving parts are given in Annex ZE.
This standard does not apply to
– machines designed exclusively for industrial purposes,
– machines intended to be used in locations where a corrosive or an explosive atmosphere is present
(dust, vapour or gas),
– continuous process machines for the mass production of food,
– boiling pans designed for induction heating,
