scope:

This International Standard specifies test methods for the determination of the available microwave output power and the efficiency of frequency conversion from the electrical input in industrial microwave heating installations.

This standard also specifies test methods for assessing the microwave power deposition in the microwave workload - the microwave workload power, in microwave-only installations.

This standard is applicable to industrial microwave heating equipment and installations in the frequency range from 300 MHz to 300 GHz.

This standard relates to industrial microwave heating equipment operating under normal load.

This standard does not apply to appliances for household and similar use (covered by IEC 60335-2-25), commercial use (covered by IEC 60335-2-90) or laboratory use (covered by IEC 61010-2-010).
