INTRODUCTION TO EN 50242/A11 and EN 60436/A11

The Technical Subcommittee IEC/SC 59A, Electric dishwashers, of IEC/TC 59, Performance of household and similar electrical appliances, issued an amendment IEC 60436:2004/A2:2012 to the International Standard IEC 60436:2004. IEC 60436:2004 is approved as EN 50242:2008 / EN 60436:2008.

Due to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1059/2010 of 28 September 2010 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to energy labelling of household dishwashers, these common modifications became necessary. They also follow Mandate M/481 to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI for standardisation in the field of household dishwashers relating to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and to Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council.

This document submits all common modifications necessary for the application of IEC 60436:2004/A1:2009 and IEC 60436:2004/A2:2012 in Europe.

In addition, this document submits all modifications to EN 50242:2008/EN 60436:2008 which are necessary due to the above mentioned Regulation of the European Union.

The common modifications to IEC 60436:2004/A2:2012 cover the following issues:

– The "new" Miele Reference Dishwasher (Model G 1222 SC Reference) and the "new" Bosch Microwave oven (HMT742C) added to the actual ones because availability ended. With both new appliances, ring testing has been done and has shown that both the Miele Model G 1222 SC References Dishwasher and the Bosch HMT 742 C Microwave Oven are equivalent regarding their performances to the Miele G590/595 and the Bosch HMT 752 F respectively.
