PC Based - Test Panel for Induction Cooktop / Induction Hobs

SCR Elektroniks has developed PC-based 3-Station Test Panel for  performance evaluation of induction cooktops in accordance with IEC 60350-2:2017, IEC 62301:2011, and the requirements outlined in the Draft Schedule 26 of the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) for Induction Hobs.

The system enables simultaneous testing of up to three induction cooktops and provides automated data acquisition, monitoring, control, analysis, and report generation through a dedicated in house developed PC-based software. 

The test panel serves as a complete solution for performance testing of induction hobs, including Energy Consumption, Thermal Efficiency, Heating-Up Time, and Standby Power helping manufacturers and testing laboratories meet compliance requirements with accurate and efficient testing.

Government aims at energy efficiency. Domestic appliances such as Induction cook-tops, water heaters, Air conditioners, Air coolers and gas heaters need to be designed for maximum efficiency. This is plain good for the environment and saves on energy bills. Like in many other nations, India’s Bureau of Energy Efficiency plans to enforce standards to force manufacturers to adhere to higher energy efficiency levels.

This testing setup is designed to carry out following tests as specified in Draft standard (schedule 26) of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) for induction hobs.

  1. Energy Consumption (Ecw, Ehob) as per clause No. 7.5 of IEC 60350-2 :2017
  2. Thermal Efficiency as described in 3.8 of Schedule 26 (BEE Draft)
  3. Heating Up Time as per clause No. 7.6 of IEC 60350-2 :2017
  4. Standby Power as per IEC 62301 :2011

All above tests are for the purpose of determining the performance of Induction hobs.
