Full Description

This part of IEC 62442 defines measurement and calculation methods for specifying the efficiency and the standby power of controlgear for tungsten-halogen lamps and LED light sources.

NOTE 1 This includes electromagnetic transformers and electronic convertors for tungsten-halogen lamps, as well as electronic controlgear for LED light source(s).

NOTE 2 The term "LED light sources" includes LED modules and LED lamps.

This document is applicable for controlgear designed for use on DC supplies up to 1 000 V and/or AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

For multipurpose power supplies only the lighting part will be considered.

NOTE 3 Requirements for testing individual controlgear during production are not included.

This document does not apply to:
- controlgear which form an integral part of lamps (LED light sources);
- controlgear circuits with capacitors connected in series;
- controllable electromagnetic controlgear.
