The first sentence in the Scope of EN 60335‑1 is replaced by:
This European standard deals with the safety of electric devices used for detection, prevention and suppression of fire originated:
-
from a cooking process, or
-
from flammable material left on the hob.
The provisions of this document, duly adapted to the specific installation and conditions of use, may be taken into consideration as guidance also for the protection from fire originated from the use of portable cooking appliances or from grills in the oven cavity.
The devices covered by this European Standard may operate by interaction with, or integration of, other devices such as smoke detectors, fire detectors, motion detectors, CO detectors and fire extinguishers that are covered by their specific applicable standards.

For category A and AB devices, in addition, the risk of dangerous fire caused by materials (newspapers, paper, towels, etc.) left on the hob shall be avoided. 11.102 Preconditioning of the device Whenever the instructions for use require a pre-conditioning of the device, the device shall be conditioned according to the instructions before starting the test. If the sensor’s sensitivity is adjustable, it shall not be possible for the user to adjust it unintentionally. The sensitivity adjustment shall require a specific procedure or user interface operation which is clearly different form the normal operation of the system. Also, the permanent sensitivity level should not change automatically. 11.103 Cooking tools 11.104 Testing requirements |
