Abstract

This Uganda Standard applies to electric deep-fat fryers for household use with a capacity of up to 4 I of oil or fat. The purpose of this standard is to state and define the principal performance characteristics of deep-fat fryers which are of interest to the user, to describe test methods for measuring these characteristics and to give some guidelines for the evaluation of the test results. Taking into account the low degree of accuracy and repeatability, due to variations in time and origin of test materials and ingredients and to the influence of the subjective judgement of test operators, the described test methods may be applied more reliably for comparative testing of a number of appliances at approximately the same time, in the same laboratory, by the same operator and with the same utensils, rather than for the testing of single appliances in different laboratories. This standard was PUBLISHED on 2020-12-15.
