Microwave heating categories
Your oven has been tested and labelled to meet the government's
voluntary agreement on the reheating of pre-cooked food.
The heating characteristics and output power levels of microwave
ovens are usually calculated using a relatively large portion of food
(a 1000 gram load, IEC 705) but many packs of pre-cooked food
are sold in smaller packs, often about 350 grams. The government,
in partnership with food companies and microwave manufacturers,
have set up a system of heating categories to help you choose the
reheating time for pre-cooked food.
