NOTE Z103 Household environments include the dwelling and its associated buildings, the garden, etc. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in household and similar environments. However, in general, it does not take into account children playing with appliances and their use by very young children. It does not take into account the use of the following appliances by young children and by older children: 1) bean slicers; 2) berry-juice extractors; 3) blenders and hand-held blenders; 4) centrifugal juicers; 5) coffee mills not exceeding 500 g hopper capacity; 6) churns; 7) food mixers; 8) food processors; 9) grain grinders not exceeding 3 l hopper capacity; 10) knife sharpeners; 11) knives; 12) mincers; 13) noodle makers; 14) potato peelers; 15) shredders; 16) sieving machines; 17) slicing machines. It does not take into account also the use of the following appliances by young children without supervision: 18) can openers; 19) citrus-fruit squeezers; 20) cream whippers; 21) egg beaters; 22) graters; 23) ice-cream machines, including those for use in refrigerators and freezers. It is recognized that very vulnerable people may have needs beyond the level addressed in this standard. NOTE Z104 Attention is drawn to the fact that _ for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary; _ in many countries additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities. NOTE Z105 This standard does not apply to _ slicing machines having a circular knife the blade of which is inclined at an angle exceeding 45° to the vertical; _ food waste disposers (EN 60335-2-16); _ ice-cream appliances with incorporated motor compressors (EN 60335-2-24); _ kitchen machines intended for commercial purposes (EN 60335-2-64); _ kitchen machines intended for industrial purposes; _ kitchen machines intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).

Overview

EN 60335-2-14:2006/A12:2016 is a European standard developed by CLC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) specifically for the safety of household and similar electrical appliances. This part (2-14) addresses particular requirements for kitchen machines with a rated voltage not exceeding 250 V. The aim is to ensure a high level of domestic electrical safety for a wide range of small kitchen appliances routinely used in homes and similar settings.

This standard modifies and supplements EN 60335-2-14:2006 and ensures compliance with core safety objectives for electrical equipment. It is relevant to manufacturers, suppliers, and regulatory bodies involved with domestic electrical kitchen appliances, and also serves as an essential tool for product compliance and market access in the European Union.

Key Topics

  • Scope: EN 60335-2-14 covers kitchen machines for household and similar purposes, such as blenders, food processors, juicers, can openers, grain grinders, mincers, potato peelers, and related appliances. It sets out requirements applicable to devices used not only in homes but also in environments like shops, hotels, and bed & breakfasts.
  • Safety Requirements: The standard outlines controls for electrical and mechanical hazards, including heating, marking, instruction clarity, and stability. Notably, it highlights risk mitigation for vulnerable users and restricts unattended or unsupervised use by children.
  • Instructions & Marking: Emphasizes the need for clear warnings regarding safe use, supervision, and maintenance - especially regarding children and individuals with reduced physical or mental capabilities.
  • Temperature and Mechanical Testing: Updates permissible temperature rises for appliance enclosures and prescribes test procedures to confirm devices remain safe under normal operating conditions.
  • Exclusions: Large commercial kitchen machines, food waste disposers, and machines intended for use in harsh industrial or hazardous environments are not covered by this standard.

Applications

Adopting EN 60335-2-14:2006/A12:2016 improves electrical safety and consumer protection for a wide range of small kitchen appliances including, but not limited to:

  • Bean slicers and berry-juice extractors
  • Blenders and hand-held blenders
  • Centrifugal and citrus juicers
  • Food mixers, food processors, potato peelers
  • Coffee mills, grain grinders, shredders, sieving, and slicing machines
  • Knife sharpeners, mincers, ice-cream machines
  • Can openers, cream whippers, egg beaters, graters, and noodle makers

These requirements support appliance use in the household environment, as well as in settings such as shops, hotels, and similar residential-type environments, ensuring a common level of safety across diverse user groups. For manufacturers and importers, compliance with this European standard is crucial for CE marking, demonstrating conformity with EU legislation, and reducing liabilities.

Related Standards

To ensure thorough safety and performance, EN 60335-2-14:2006/A12:2016 should be considered alongside related standards:

  • EN 60335-1: General requirements for household and similar electrical appliances
  • EN 60335-2-16: Food waste disposers
  • EN 60335-2-24: Refrigerated appliances, including ice-cream appliances with motor compressors
  • EN 60335-2-64: Kitchen machines for commercial use

Adhering to relevant domestic safety standards ensures comprehensive risk management and product quality for small kitchen appliances across Europe. For further details or application-specific guidance, manufacturers should refer to the complete family of EN 60335 standards and consult with national certification bodies.
