IEC 62560:2011 pdf – Self-ballasted LED-lamps for general lighting services by voltage > 50 v – Safety specifications.
type
lamps that have an identical electrical rating and a similar cap
3.8
type test
test or series of tests made on a type test sample for the purpose of checking compliance of the design of a given product with the requirements of the relevant standard
3.9
type t.st sample
sample consisting of one or more similar units submitted by the manufacturer or responsible vendor for the purpose of the type test
4 General requirements and general test requirements
4.1 The lamps shall be so designed and constructed that in normal use they functiofi reliably and cause no danger to the user or surroundings.
In general, compliance is checked by carrying out all the tests specified.
4.2 Selt-ballasted LED-lamps are non-repairable, factory-sealed units. They shall normally not be opened for any tests. In the case of doubt based on the inspection of the lamp and the examination of the circuit diagram, and in agreement with the manufacturer or responsible vendor, either the output terminals shall be short-circuited or. in agreement with the manufacturer, lamps specially prepared so that a fault condition can be simulated shall be submitted for testing (see Clause 13).
4.3 In general, all tests are carried out on each type of lamp or. where a range of similar lamps is involved, for each wattage in the range or on a representative selection from the range, as agreed with the manufacturer.
4.4 When the lamp fails safely during one of the tests, it is replaced, provided that no fire.
smoke or flammable gas is produced. Further requirements on failing safe are given in Clause
12.
5 Marking
5.1 Lamps shall be clearly and durably marked with the following mandatory markings:
a) mark of origin (this may take the form of a trademark, the manufacturer’s name or the name of the responsible vendor);
b) rated voltage or voltage range (marked V or volts’);
c) rated wattage (marked W or watts);
d) rated frequency (marked In ‘Hz’).
5.2 In addition, the following information shall be given by the lamp manufacturer on the lamp or immediate lamp wrapping or container or in installation instructions,
a) Burning position, if restricted, shall be marked with the appropriate symbol, Symbol examples are shown In Annex B.
b) rated Current (marked ‘A” or ‘ampere’);
C) ‘For lamps with a weight significantly higher than that of the lamps for which they are a replacement, attention should be drawn to the fact that the increased weight may reduce the mechanical stability of certain luminaires and lampholders and may impair contact making and lamp retention.’
