New CE certification standard for liquid heater EN60335-2-15

EN 60335-2-15 is applicable to the safety of liquid heaters for household and similar purposes. This standard is the harmonized standard of the Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC). Domestic liquid heaters within the scope of LVD Directive must meet the requirements of this standard before they can be affixed with CE mark.
