Specifies requirements for the design and construction, marking and accompanying information, and performance of microwave ovens intended for domestic use. Also describes subjective tests for gauging the cooking and defrosting performance. The cooking and defrosting tests are identical to those of IEC 705:1988.

This Standard sets out requirements for microwave cooking appliances using electromagnetic energy in the ISM frequency band 2450 50 MHz suitable for connection to a 230 V/240 V a.c. supply having a frequency of 50 Hz.

First published in Australia as part of AS 2895-1986.
Jointly revised and redesignated in part as Joint Standard AS/NZS 2895.3:1995.
