Overview
This part of IEC 60704 applies to electric hand-held hairdryers for household and similar use supplied from mains, which operate with a flow of air. These particular requirements can also be applied to analogous electrically operated devices such as hairstyling appliances, which produce the airflow by a fan. Helmet-type hairdryers are excluded from this document. This document does not apply to hair care appliances with radiant heating. Typical examples of applications include electric handheld hair dryers.
