Obtaining BIS approval ensures that a product meets all safety standards, boosting consumer confidence and trust in its use. The ISI mark serves as a symbol of quality, helping consumers make the safest and most reliable choice when purchasing a device. Securing BIS licenses for appliances also simplifies customs clearance, enabling foreign manufacturers to import goods into India without complications.

IS 302 (Part 2/Sec 31): 2009 outlines safety requirements for electric range hoods used with household cooking appliances, operating at a supply voltage of 250 V. This standard focuses on electrical shock prevention, fire safety, and protection, ensuring secure use in both domestic and light industrial settings. However, IS 302 does not cover commercial applications or special environments such as explosive atmospheres. Compliance with these safety standards helps manufacturers maintain commercial confidence, adhere to global safety norms, and promote secure and safe homes for consumers.

REQUIRED TEST

Range Hoods must undergo the following tests.

Mandatory Tests

• Earth continuity test

Range hoods play a critical role in maintaining air quality, preventing grease buildup on surfaces, and minimizing fire risks in both commercial kitchens and busy households. For optimal performance and safety, it is crucial that range hoods adhere to stringent quality and safety standards. Ensuring compliance with these regulations guarantees efficient operation and helps mitigate potential hazards, making range hoods indispensable for effective kitchen ventilation.
