KR · KC 60335-2-2; applicable KC general safety requirements
Vacuum and water-suction cleaners: product-specific KC standard
Identify the market and product category first. Each dossier separates legal duties, referenced standards, evidence and the comparison needed for an award.
Product Scope
Electrical vacuum cleaners and water-suction cleaning appliances within the product standard's scope.
Requirements
Read the particular cleaner requirements with the applicable general requirements. The product configuration, wet-use function and safety route must match the report; a general electrical report does not replace the particular part.
Required Evidence
Provide the full general/particular test record, exact model, wet/dry classification, ratings and statutory route documents.
Comparison for the Awards
Suction power alone does not establish a surplus over electrical safety requirements. Any relevant margin must retain the prescribed setup and criterion.
Version & Transition
KATS lists a 20 July 2026 notice for KC 60335-2-2. The notice's application/transition conditions, not the display date alone, determine report acceptance.
Official Sources
Applicability depends on the product classification, intended use, configuration and actual sales territory. Manufacturing, placing-on-the-market and testing dates, together with transition provisions, are checked as required by each applicable rule. The directory identifies sources; it does not replace assessment of the specific model. Standards are identified by reference, and their authoritative texts remain with the issuing bodies. Official source documents retain their original language.
