IS 302 Part 1:2024/IEC 60335-1
BIS Certification for Commercial Electric Kitchen Appliances based on IS 302 (Part 1):2024/IEC 60335-1:2020, which is the updated Indian Standard that corresponds to the international IEC safety standard and serves as the foundation for mandatory certification as per the Safety of Household, Commercial and Similar Electrical Appliances (Quality Control) Order, 2024. No matter what kind of commercial electric kitchen appliance you produce, be it mixers, food processors, dough kneaders, slicers, or any other, it is necessary to obtain the ISI Mark to sell your product in India.
Commercial electric kitchen appliances are widely used in restaurants, hotels, bakeries, caterers, cloud kitchens, and food processing plants for convenient food preparation. Being electrically powered and operating continuously in commercial settings, they must meet high safety standards to prevent potential hazards such as fires, overheating, or mechanical injuries.
What are Commercial Electric Kitchen Machines under IS 302 Part 1: 2024/IEC 60335-1?

Applicable testing parameters for Commercial Electric Kitchen Machines: IS 302 Part 1:2024/IEC 60335-1
Commercial electric kitchen machines are primarily evaluated on three factors: safety, performance, and durability. These tests are conducted in accordance with BIS rules and the IS 302/IEC 60335 standards, without causing electric shock, fire, or breakdowns.
- Heating & overheating protection: The product shall not reach temperatures during normal use or fault conditions that would cause burns, component damage, or fires. Limits on temperature and overheating protection devices, such as thermal fuses, are verified.
- Electric shock protection: Accidental contact with live components and dangerous voltages, if the insulating materials fail, is prevented by earthing and insulation systems. Leakage currents and insulation strengths are measured.
- Abnormal operation: In the event of any failure (motor jamming, obstruction of ventilation openings, or part failure), the device shall fail safely – without causing fire, explosions, or electric shock. Faults are simulated.
- Materials and fire resistance: Plastics, wiring, and other materials used in the construction shall withstand heating, burning, tracking, and corrosion under normal and abnormal conditions.
- Labelling & user information: The device must provide ratings for voltage, current, and frequency, as well as warnings and instructions for proper installation, use, and maintenance.
