IEC 60335-2-80:1997

Applies to electric fans and their associated regulators intended for use on single-phase a.c. and d.c. circuits not exceeding 250 V, for household and similar purposes, such as ceiling, table, pedestal, partition and ventilating fans.

Applies to jet fans commonly known as air circulators and air blast cooling fans oscillating and non-oscillating and their associated regulators intended for use on single-phase a.c. circuits and d.c. circuits not exceeding 250 V, air blast cooling fans may be intended for use on three phase a.c. systems up to 440 V. Is concerned with safety requirements of jet fans and does not cover performance requirements and corresponding tests.

Deals with the safety of electric fans, their rated voltage being not more that 250V for single-phase and 480V for other appliances,intended for household and similar purposes. Appliances intended for use in shops, light industry and on farms, are within the scope of this standard.
