There is a washing machine on the balcony, whether it should be waterproofed

The washing machine should be fully waterproof.

According to the national standard of GB-2008 "Special Requirements for Safe Washing Machines for Household and Similar Electrical Appliances", the waterproof level of the washing machine should be at least IPX4, and every washing machine should have this symbol, which means that the waterproof grade of the washing machine is splash-proof, that is to say, the washing machine should be drenched for 5 minutes when the lid is open, and the electrical insulation should not be damaged.

In addition, the washing machine should also be subjected to an overflow test, which means that the electrical insulation should not be damaged after 15 minutes of overflow.

Waterproof does not mean that it is well sealed, the concept of waterproof washing machine is not allowed to destroy the electrical insulation, and whether it is waterproof or not cannot be judged by whether there is a gap.
