This European Standard specifies co-ordinating sizes for kitchen units, worktops, recess panelling, furniture fronts and decorative panels as well as for kitchen appliances (white goods and ovens) and further installation elements, e.g. sinks (abbreviated as "appliances").

It specifies dimensions for the height, the width, the depth and the space to integrate appliances in kitchen units.

This European Standard does not apply to kitchens used commercially (e.g. in hotels, restaurants).
