26 - G2 PROCEDURE.

Specifies finish, construction details, hob opening dimensions, mountings and connection details. Tests include resistance of the hob to deformation, strength, and resistance of oven shelves and supports to deflection and deformation, thermal performance of ovens and rotisserie performance and endurance. Cooking tests are included and tests on the performance of catalytic cleaning ovens. Appendices include minimum requirements for a cooking chart. Requirements for marking and point of sale information are included.

This standard specifies requirements for household electric ranges, both fixed and portable, intended for operation by direct or alternating current at low or medium voltage, including independent ovens and cooking tops.The standard includes provisions relating to construction and finish, minimum performance requirements, and standard methods of testing. This standard includes requirements for catalytic cleaning oven components, but does not include requirements for microwave ovens or the special requirements for pyrolytic cleaning ovens.
