EVS-EN 60335-2-7:2010

This European Standard deals with the safety of electric washing machines for household and similar use, that are intended for washing clothes and textiles, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V for single-phase washing machines and 480 V for other washing machines, in this standard generally referred to as appliances. This standard also deals with the safety of electric washing machines for household and similar use employing an electrolyte instead of detergent. Additional requirements for these appliances are given in Annex CC. Appliances not designed for normal household use but which nevertheless may be a source of danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, on farms and for communal use in blocks of flats are within the scope of this standard.
