Direct answer: Enterprise Singapore published a 2026 proposal to review SS 655:2020, the Singapore standard covering safety of household and similar electric fans. A review notice is not the same as a final revised standard, so suppliers should monitor the outcome and confirm the current applicable edition before testing or shipment.

Scope described in the official notice
The Enterprise Singapore consultation document describes SS 655:2020 as a modified adoption of IEC 60335-2-80:2015. It addresses electric fans for household and similar purposes with rated voltage not exceeding 250 V for single-phase appliances, and also covers separate controls supplied with fans.
What buyers should do during a standards review
- Confirm whether the product is within the applicable fan category and regulatory scheme.
- Ask the Singapore importer or conformity specialist which edition and national deviations apply.
- Freeze the motor, guards, controls, power supply, battery, materials and thermal protection before testing.
- Track the review outcome and assess whether new or amended requirements affect planned launches.
- Retain the final report, component records, labels and user instructions for the shipped model.
MistAirHome sourcing note
A rechargeable mini fan, mains fan and smart fan can require different evidence. MistAirHome will not describe a model as compliant with SS 655 solely because another model was tested. Singapore buyers should identify the exact standard and registration route required for the final configuration.
