Energy performance of lamp controlgear - Part 3: Controlgear for tungsten-halogen lamps and LED light sources - Method of measurement to determine the efficiency of controlgear

IEC 62442-3:2022 defines measurement and calculation methods for specifying the efficiency and the standby power of controlgear for tungsten-halogen lamps and LED light sources. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:- this edition has been harmonized with IEC 62442-1 and IEC 62442-­2;- the reference to and use of the measurement methods for non-active power consumption in accordance with IEC 63103 have been added.

Energy performance of lamp controlgear - Part 3: Controlgear for tungsten-halogen lamps and LED light sources - Method of measurement to determine the efficiency of controlgear

IEC 62442-3:2018 defines a measurement method for the power losses of electromagnetic transformers as well as the power losses and the standby power of electronic convertors for tungsten-halogen lamps and for LED light source(s). It is applicable for controlgear that are 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. A calculation method of the efficiency of the mentioned controlgear for tungsten­halogen lamps and LED light source(s) is also defined. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision and has been harmonized with IEC 62442-1 and IEC 62442-2.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

  • mandatory clauses to satisfy,
  • non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
