Anotation

IEC 60335-2-105:2026 CMV contains both the official standard and its commented version. The commented version provides you with a quick and easy way to compare all the changes between IEC 60335-2-105:2026 edition 3.0 and the previous IEC 60335-2-105:2016+AMD1:2019 CSV edition 2.1. Furthermore, comments from IEC TC 61 experts are provided to explain the reasons of the most relevant changes, or to clarify any part of the content. IEC 60335-2-105:2026 deals with the safety of electric multifunctional shower cabinets and electric separate multifunctional shower units for household and similar purposes, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances including DC supplied appliances. Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in hotels, fitness centres and similar locations, are within the scope of this standard. As 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 - 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; - children playing with the appliance. Attention is drawn to the fact that - for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements can be necessary; - in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national water supply authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities; - in many countries, mechanical strength, impact resistance and shattering properties of shower enclosures can be covered by national regulations. If an appliance incorporates a part that is within the scope of IEC 60598 series or IEC 62368 series, the part is tested in accordance with the relevant standard as far as reasonable. This standard does not apply to - instantaneous water heaters used for showering (IEC 60335-2-35); - shower-boost pumps (IEC 60335-2-41); - appliances intended for medical purposes; - 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). This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2016 and Amendment 1:2019. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) alignment with IEC 60335-1:2020; b) conversion of some notes to normative text (Clause 1); c) updates to the surface temperature requirements (11.8, Table 101). This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60335-1 and its amendments unless that edition precludes it; in that case, the latest edition that does not preclude it is used. It was established on the basis of the sixth edition (2020) of that standard.
