IEC 60926:1995

This part of IEC 61347 specifies general and safety requirements for lamp controlgear for use on d.c. supplies up to 250 V and/or a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. This standard also covers lamp controlgear for lamps which are not yet standardized. Tests dealt with in this standard are type tests. Requirements for testing individual lamp controlgear during production are not included. This part 1 is to be used in conjunction with the appropriate part 2, which contains clauses to supplement or modify the corresponding clauses in part 1, to provide the relevant requirements for each type of product. This first edition of IEC 61347-1, together with parts 1 to 9 of IEC 61347-2, cancels and replaces IEC 60920, IEC 60922, IEC 60924, IEC 60926, IEC 60928 and IEC 61046, and constitute a minor revision. The relationship between the parts that make up IEC 61347-2 and the IEC standards they replace is detailed as follows: IEC 61347-2-1 replaces IEC 60926 IEC 61347-2-2 replaces IEC 61046 IEC 61347-2-3 replaces IEC 60928 IEC 61347-2-4 replaces IEC 60924, Section 3 IEC 61347-2-5 replaces IEC 60924, Section 4 IEC 61347-2-6 replaces IEC 60924, Section 5 IEC 61347-2-7 replaces IEC 60924, Section 6 IEC 61347-2-8 replaces IEC 60920 IEC 61347-2-9 replaces IEC 60922

This part of IEC 61347 specifies particular safety requirements for starting devices (starters other than glow starters and ignitors) for fluorescent and other discharge lamps for use on a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz which produce starting pulses not greater than 100 kV and which are used in combination with lamps and ballasts covered in IEC 60081, IEC 60188, IEC 60192, IEC 60662, IEC 60901, IEC 61167, IEC 61195, IEC 61199, IEC 61347-2-8 and IEC 61347-2-9. It does not apply to glow starters or starting devices which are incorporated in discharge lamps or which are manually operated. Preheat transformers for fluorescent lamps are covered by IEC 61347-2-8. This first edition of IEC 61347-2-1, together with IEC 61347-1, cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 60926, published in 1995, and constitutes a minor revision. This standard shall be used in conjunction with IEC 61347-1. It was established on the basis of the first edition (2000) of that standard.
