This document applies to microwave ovens for household use. It also applies to microwave ovens with grills and combination microwave ovens.

This document defines the main performance characteristics of these appliances, which are of interest to the user, and it specifies methods for measuring these characteristics.

NOTE 1 This document does not deal with

  • microwave ovens that cannot accept a load having a diameter of ≥ 200 mm or a height of ≥ 120 mm;

  • safety requirements (see IEC 60335‑2‑25 [1]4 and IEC 60335‑2‑90 [2]).

NOTE 2 This document does not apply to ovens incorporating conventional heating means only (see IEC 60350) [3].
