IEC 60436:2015适用于供应热水和/或冷水的家用和类似用途的电动洗碗机。目的是陈述和定义家用和类似用途电动洗碗机的主要性能特征，并描述测量这些特征的标准方法。该标准既不涉及安全性，也不涉及最低性能要求。本版本为技术修订版，与上一版本相比包含以下重大技术变更: a)增加了参考洗碗机G1222的规格，增加了微波炉752C，纳入了待机/低功率模式，并更新了餐具和餐具。 b)组合清洁和干燥:将清洁和干燥性能评估与能量和水消耗评估一起组合到一个测试中，防止了单独执行测试时规避的机会。洗碗机可以检测是否存在污垢（清洁评估）（干燥评估），并调整循环以有利于性能；结合测试解决了这个问题。 c)新的菜肴装载项目:纳入了反映消费者使用情况的新菜肴装载项目。新产品有:不锈钢壶、咖啡杯、三聚氰胺塑料制品和玻璃碗。新的负载项目提供了不同的形状，挑战了洗碗机的喷水模式，并为污垢去除评估提供了额外的表面。 d)洗涤剂:指定了新的洗涤剂“D”，其反映了市场上可获得的当前片剂制剂。D型洗涤剂不含磷酸盐，用过碳酸盐代替过硼酸盐漂白剂和更多活性酶。 e)重复性和再现性改进。 f)增加了评估土壤传感方案、冲洗性能、洗碗机过滤的附件，以及关于进水温度对能源消耗影响的附件。

IEC 60436:2015 applies to electric dishwashers for household and similar use that are supplied with hot and/or cold water. The object is to state and define the principal performance characteristics of electric dishwashers for household and similar use and to describe the standard methods of measuring these characteristics. This standard is concerned neither with safety nor with minimum performance requirements. This edition constitutes a technical revision and includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Addition of a specification of the reference dishwasher G1222, addition of the microwave oven 752C, inclusion of standby/low power modes and updated cutlery and tableware items.
b) Combined cleaning and drying: combining the cleaning and drying performance evaluations into one test, along with the energy and water consumption evaluation, prevents an opportunity for circumvention if tests were performed separately. A dishwasher can detect whether soil is present (cleaning evaluation) or not (drying evaluation) and adjust the cycle to favour performance; combining the tests addresses this.
c) New dish load items: new dish load items were incorporated which reflect consumer use. New items are: stainless pots, coffee mugs, melamine plastic items, and glass bowl. The new load items provide different shapes which challenge a dishwasher water spray patterns and provide additional surfaces for soil removal assessment.
d) Detergent: a new detergent "D" is specified which mirrors current tablet formulations available on the market. Detergent type D is phosphate free, with percarbonate instead of perborate bleach and more active enzymes.
e) Repeatability and reproducibility improvements.
f) Addition of annexes for the evaluation of soil sensing programmes, rinsing performance, dishwasher filtration and of an annex on the inlet water temperature influence on energy consumption.
