Safety of household and similar electrical appliances; part 2: particular requirements for commercial electric steam cookers; amendment 1 to IEC 335-2-46:1986

This document represents the first amendment to an international standard concerning safety requirements for household and similar electrical appliances, specifically addressing those designed for commercial use in hotels, dormitories, and other residential environments. The amendment introduces revised technical provisions to enhance safety performance by addressing specific operational risks associated with appliances used in high-occupancy residential settings. It outlines updated test procedures and constructional requirements to ensure that devices such as washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators operate safely under conditions typical of multi-unit housing or commercial hospitality facilities. The modifications refine previously established limits for temperature rise, electrical stress, and mechanical robustness to accommodate evolving usage patterns. This technical supplement is designed to be used in conjunction with the main standard to provide comprehensive guidance for manufacturers, testing laboratories, and regulatory bodies evaluating product compliance. The content focuses exclusively on technical criteria and safety methodologies without altering the fundamental structure of the base document.
