What is IEC 60335-1 Standard?

1. Safety Standard IEC60335-1

IEC 60335-1:2010 deals with the safety of electrical appliances for household and similar purposes.

Table1 shows the comparison of requirement between IEC60335-1 and IEC60950-1 in terms of safety.

*4:Listed voltage means working voltage in IEC60950-1, and rated input voltage in IEC60335.

2. IEC60335-1 compliance

(1) Creepage

Required creepage in IEC60335-1 is more strict than IEC60950-1 in some part.

(2) Temperature of wire

In IEC60950-1, type of wire is categorized by the absolute maximum temperature. In IEC60335-1, type of wire is categorized by the temperature increasing against temperature at 25ºC ambient temperature.

(3) Grounding capacitor

2pcs of Y1 grade grounding capacitors shall be used in series to comply with IEC60335-1. 

(4) Safety approval

The creepage and temperature of wire are different depending on the product.
