IEC 61347-2-13:2024 ED3

Controlgear for electric light sources - Safety - Part 2-13: Particular requirements - Electronic controlgear for LED light sources

Scope

IEC 61347-2-13:2024 specifies safety requirements for electronic controlgear for LED light sources for use on DC supplies up to 1 500 V or on AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
This document is applicable for electronic controlgear for LED light sources with an output voltage (RMS) not higher than 1 000 V.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014 and Amendment 1:2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) alignment with respect to the fourth edition of IEC 61347-1:
- introduction of dated references to the fourth edition of IEC 61347-1 as appropriate;
- deletion of the clauses and subclauses which are either no longer relevant or now covered in IEC 61347-1;
b) update of normative references, introducing dated references where appropriate;
c) scope extension to 1 500 V for direct current;
d) scope clarification;
e) deletion of unused definitions;
f) revision of information and marking requirements;
g) new marking requirement "electronic controlgear for LED light sources";
h) new requirements for electronic controlgear for LED light sources with constant light output function or programmable current (additions to Clause 3, Clause 6, Clause 16 and Clause 18);
i) modification of requirements for the determination of the output working voltage (new Clause 17);
j) new requirements for the determination of the rated output characteristics (Clause 18).
