Hello Derek,

There are multiple parts to CISPR 14.  The first part, EN 55014-1, covers
emissions.  EN 55014-2 covers immunity.  You should also be aware that
there are some immunity tests in EN 60335.  These include a surge test at a
higher level than required for general immunity.  However, the EN 60335
requirement is that the product only remain safe after the surge.  It does
not need to function properly.

Guys,

I've been presented with a request for testing kitchen appliances. These
would be cookers, dishwashers, coffee pots, ovens, kettles etc. It does not
cover hand held appliances.

Is there a specific product standard for these devices now, or in the
planning stage? I'm sort of leaning to EN 55014 for emissions, but what for
immunity?

The company I'm looking into this for has received guidance from another. I
believe tests are being skipped and I didn't want them to be guided wrong:
I'd be much happier with a group concensus.

Sincerely,

Derek Walton
