Scope:

This International Standard specifies general and safety requirements for light-emitting diode (LED) modules:

 

- LED modules without integral control gear for operation under constant voltage, constant current or constant power;

- self-ballasted LED modules for use on d.c. supplies up to 250 V or a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

 

NOTE 1 The safety requirements for separate control gear are specified in IEC 61347-2-13. The performance requirements for separate control gear are specified in IEC 62384.

 

NOTE 2 Requirements for LED modules with integrated control gear and equipped with a lamp cap (self-ballasted lamp), intended for mains voltage general lighting service retrofit applications (thereby replacing existing lamps with identical lamp caps) are specified in IEC 60968 (an amendment to the present edition or a new edition with extended scope is in preparation).

 

Requirements for LED modules with integrated control gear and equipped with a lamp cap (self-ballasted lamp), intended for non-mains voltage general lighting service retrofit applications (thereby replacing existing lamps with identical lamp caps) are under consideration.

 

NOTE 3 Where in the requirements of this standard both types of LED modules, with and without integral control gear, are addressed, the word "modules" is used instead. Where only the expression "LED module(s)" is used, it is understood to refer to the type without integral control gear.

Project need:

To maintain alignment with international requirements in the safety requirements for LED modules in general lighting applications.
