A major appliance is usually defined as a large
machine which accomplishes some routine housekeeping task, which includes purposes such as
cooking,
food preservation, or
cleaning, whether in a household, institutional, commercial or industrial setting. An
appliance is differentiated from a
plumbing fixture because it uses an energy input for its operation other than
water, generally using
electricity or
natural gas/
propane. An object run by a
watermill would also be considered an appliance. The term white goods is also used for these items, primarily where
British English is spoken, although definitions for the term "white goods" can differ. In the
United States, the term white goods more commonly refers to
linens rather than appliances.
