30 - ANNEX ZZ - VARIATIONS BETWEEN THIS STANDARD AND IEC 335-2-79:1995

Specifies particular safety requirements for approval and test purposes. It is to be read in conjunction with AS/NZS 3350.1:1994. This Standard is technically equivalent to and has been reproduced from IEC 335-2-79:1995.

This clause of part 1 is applicable except as follows:Addition:This standard applies to high pressure cleaners having a pressure not less than 25 bars and not more than 250 bars with an input to the drive for the high pressure pump not exceeding 10 kW. It also applies to steam cleaners having a usable volume of the water container equal to or greater than 1,5 litres even if the pressure is less than 25 bars.This standard also applies to fixed appliances within the limits of the previous paragraph.It is also applicable to appliances making use of other forms of energy for the motor; but it is necessary that their influence is taken into consideration.Modification:Replace the first two dashed paragraphs of note 3 by: appliances that are incorporated in process equipment; appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of corrosive or explosive atmosphere (vapour or gas).
