Preface<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is the second edition of CSA C388, Energy consumption test methods for household microwave ovens.<\/em> It supersedes the first edition published in 1980.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The major change to this edition is the alignment of the test methods with USDOE.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The purpose of this Standard is to establish a uniform procedure for evaluating the energy efficiency of microwave ovens which are of interest to the user, and to describe the standard methods for measuring this characteristic.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The standard methods included herein are intended to provide a means by which different brands and models of microwave ovens can be compared and evaluated with respect to energy consumption.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This Standard is not intended to preclude or to prevent improvement and innovation in product design and performance.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.1<\/p>\n

This Standard applies to cord-connected microwave ovens intended for use on nominal 120\/240 V branch circuits and microwave ovens intended for permanent connection to branch circuits up to 240 V, manufactured for use in homes and similar locations.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.2<\/p>\n

This Standard specifies methods of testing the energy consumption in both active and standby modes of electrically operated microwave ovens as well as measuring the cavity volume.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.3<\/p>\n

This Standard applies to microwave ovens designed to heat food by use of microwave energy. The forms of microwave ovens include portable, countertop, counter-mounted, stationary, stationary-combination, built-in, and built-in combination, microwave\/conventional cook top, microwave\/conventional oven, microwave\/conventional range, and convection microwave oven.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.4<\/p>\n

The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.5<\/p>\n

In this Standard, shall is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; should is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and may is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
