This document deals with the safety of electrical, hand-held hairdryers of protection class II which are connected to the AC mains and whose rated voltage does not exceed 250 V. The aim of the pre-standard is to increase the safety of hairdryers so that, as far as reasonably possible, there is no longer any danger to a person in a bathtub should a hairdryer in operation fall into it.
