Scope

This clause of GB/T 4706.1-2024 is replaced by the following.
This Document specifies the safety requirements for household and similar heat pumps, air
conditioners and dehumidifiers.
This Document deals with the safety of electric heat pumps, sanitary hot water heat pumps
and air conditioners, incorporating motor-compressors as well as hydronic fan coils units,
dehumidifiers (with or without motor-compressors), thermoelectric heat pumps and partial
units. Their maximum rated voltage being no more than 300 V for single phase appliances and
600 V for multi-phase appliances.
Appliances not intended for normal household use but which nevertheless can be a source of
danger to the public, such as appliances intended to be used by laymen in shops, in light industry
and on farms, are within the scope of this Document.
The appliances referenced above can consist of one or more factory-made assemblies. If
provided in more than one assembly, the separate assemblies are used together, and they are
based on the use of matched assemblies specified in the technical requirements of this
Document.
NOTE 101.A definition of ‘motor-compressor’ is given in IEC 60335-2-34, which includes the statement
that the term motor-compressor is used to designate either a hermetic motor-compressor or semi-hermetic
motor-compressor.
NOTE 102.Requirements for containers intended for storage of the heated water included in sanitary
hot water heat pumps are, in addition, covered by IEC 60335-2-21.
This Document does not take into account refrigerants other than group A1, A2L, A2 and A3
as defined by ISO 817.Flammable refrigerants are limited to those of a molar mass of more
than or equal to 42 kg/kmol based on WCF (worst case formulation) as specified in ISO 817.
As far as practical, this Document deals with common hazards presented by appliances that are
encountered in normal use and assumes that installation, servicing, decommissioning, and
disposal are safely handled by competent persons and accidental release of refrigerants is
