Introduction
IS 302 Part 1 2024 sets safety rules for many household and commercial appliances. Electric griddles and griddle grills belong to this category. These food preparation machines assist in cooking various foods in hotels, small kitchens, bakeries, and food stores. They facilitate day-to-day activity in the food trade. The demand for such cooking tools has grown in India because more people dine out and more food counters open every year.
Any brand that wants to place these products on the Indian market must get BIS permission. The ISI mark shows that the product meets the national rules. Makers also need to clear fees linked with registration, customs, and basic formalities before entering the market.
