UNE-CLC IEC/TS 63457-1:2026

This part of IEC 63457, which is Technical Specification (TS), is a product family standard dealing with safety after repair, refurbishment, and remanufacturing of an appliance already

placed on the market and subsequent safety testing of appliances within the scope of IEC TC 61 and its subcommittees. This document takes precedence over horizontal and generic

standards covering the same subject. When a Part 2 of the IEC TS 63457-2 series does not include additional requirements to cover hazards dealt with in this document, this document

applies. All tests included in this document are conducted by a qualified person or by a supervised technician for specified activities. The use of reused components is addressed

in informative Annex A. Additional requirements for upgrade apply as given in informative Annex B. Inspection and test documentation are prepared, for example, according to

informative Annex C. Furthermore, a guidance on preparing a service manual by the manufacturer or remanufacturer is given in Annex D.

NOTE 1 This document does not apply to user maintenance.

This document does not cover:

IEC standards published by TC 59 concerning methods of measuring performance;

all safety requirements of the new product (IEC 60335 series standards);

IEC standards published by TC 111 concerning environmental matters.

Product-specific deviations necessary for certain appliances, such as microwaves or gas appliances, will be prepared by the applicable committee in the form of a Part 2 of the

IEC TS 63457-2 series taking into account the nature of the appliance by creating a document with the modifications.

NOTE 2 Attention is drawn to the fact that in many countries, additional requirements on the safe use of the appliance covered can be specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the

protection of labour, the national water supply and similar authorities.
