This part of IEC 62722 covers specific performance and environmental requirements for luminaires, incorporating electric light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1 000 V. Unless otherwise detailed, performance data covered under the scope of this document are for the luminaires in a condition representative of new manufacture, with any specified initial aging procedures completed.
IEC 62722-1 covers requirements for luminaires to support energy efficient use and responsible environmental management to the end of life. The object of this Part 1 is to provide a set of requirements which are considered to be generally applicable to most types of luminaires. Where additional performance requirements for specific types of light source are relevant, these are specified in the IEC 62722-2 series. The IEC 62722-2 series can also cover a wider scope of performance aspects appropriate to the particular light source technology.
NOTE The structure of these performance standards also allows for the possibility of Part 3 of the IEC 62722 series to be introduced in the future should standardization of performance criteria linked to specific luminaire applications be determined as necessary (e.g. floodlighting, street lighting).
It is the intention that the requirements of this Part 1 are to be met by the provision of information and data provided by the luminaire manufacturer (or responsible vendor). Conformity is considered to be met by the provision of the requested information. Any verification of data is conducted by the measurement requirements of this document.
Semi-luminaires are not covered under the scope of this document.
For some types of luminaire (e.g. decorative or household) the provision of performance data under the scope of this document will not be appropriate.

This Part 1 of IEC 60598 specifies general requirements for luminaires, incorporating electric
light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1 000 V. The requirements and related
tests of this document cover: classification, marking, mechanical construction, electrical
construction and photobiological safety.
Each section of this Part 1 is read in conjunction with this Section 0 and with other relevant
sections to which reference is made.
Each part of IEC 60598-2 details requirements for a particular type of luminaire or group of
luminaires on supply voltages not exceeding 1 000 V. These parts are published separately
for ease of revision and additional sections will be added as and when a need for them is
recognized.
The presentation of photometric data for luminaires is under consideration by the International
Commission on Illumination (CIE) and is not, therefore, included in this Part 1.
Requirements are included in this Part 1 for luminaires incorporating ignitors with nominal
peak values of the voltage pulse not exceeding those of Table 11.2. The requirements apply
to luminaires with ignitors built into ballasts and to luminaires with ignitors separate from
ballasts. For luminaires with ignitors built into lamps, the requirements are under
consideration.
Requirements for semi-luminaires are included in this Part 1.
In general, this Part 1 covers safety requirements for luminaires. The object of this Part 1 is to
provide a set of requirements and tests which are considered to be generally applicable to
most types of luminaires and which can be called up as required by the detail specifications of
IEC 60598-2. This Part 1 is thus not regarded as a specification in itself for any type of
luminaire, and its provisions apply only to particular types of luminaires to the extent
determined by the appropriate part of IEC 60598-2.
The parts of IEC 60598-2, in making reference to any of the sections of Part 1, specify the
extent to which that section is applicable and the order in which the tests are performed; they
also include additional requirements as necessary.
The order in which the sections of Part 1 are numbered has no particular significance as the
order in which their provisions apply is determined for each type of luminaire or group of
luminaires by the appropriate part of IEC 60598-2. All parts of IEC 60598-2 are self-contained
and therefore do not contain references to other parts of IEC 60598-2.
Where the requirements of any of the sections of Part 1 are referred to in the parts of
IEC 60598-2 by the phrase "The requirements of section... of IEC 60598-1 apply", this phrase
is interpreted as meaning that all the requirements of that section of Part 1 apply except those
which are clearly inapplicable to the particular type of luminaire covered by that part of
IEC 60598-2.
For explosion proof luminaires, as covered by IEC 60079, the requirements of IEC 60598
(selecting the appropriate parts 2) are applied in addition to the requirements of IEC 60079. In
the event of any conflict between IEC 60598 and IEC 60079, the requirements of IEC 60079
take priority.
Improvements in safety to take into account the state of the art technology are incorporated in
the standards with revisions and amendments on an ongoing basis. Regional standardization
bodies can include statements in their derived standards to cover products which have
complied with the previous document as shown by the manufacturer or standardization body.
The statements may require that for such products, the previous standard may continue to
apply to production until a defined date after which the new standard shall apply.

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - alignment with IEC 60598-1; - modification of the scope, classification and requirements to cover portable luminaires for both indoor and outdoor applications, by introducing the requirements already listed in IEC 60598-2-7; NOTE In this edition of IEC 60598-2-4 all requirements listed in IEC 60598-2-7 have been incorporated. As a consequence, IEC 60598-2-7 will be withdrawn after publication of this standard. - modification of the scope to cover all electrical light sources (it was previously limited to tungsten filament, tubular fluorescent and other discharge lamps); - introduction of the symbol for luminaires which are other than ordinary, but suitable for indoor applications only (e.g. luminaire using PVC cable); - modification in the detail of test to clarify that the stability test on an inclined plane (see 4.7.3) shall be carried out with the light source(s) in place; - modification of the minimum degree of protection against dust and moisture for portable luminaires for outdoor use from IPX3 to IPX4 (see 4.5.2); as a consequence, the requirements for cable entry position, as given in IEC 60598-2-7:1982, 7.6.3 were deleted as they are covered by IPX4; - modification of the requirements for the acceptance criteria of plug and socket outlet; - modification of the IP test requiring the most unfavourable of the overturned positions to cover all classes (and not only class II luminaires as in 7.13.1 of IEC 60598-2-7:1982).

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1984 and Amendement 2:1990. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) extension of the applicable scope from light source to electric light source and replacement of "tungsten filament, tubular fluorescent and other discharge lamps" with "electric light source" in 17.1. b) consideration of the fact that there are many LED luminaires with non-replaceable light source, and light source without a glass bulb, or with low operation temperature: the applicable scope of relevant clauses therefore only applies to replaceable light source luminaires with a glass bulb lamp, or with high surface temperature.

This part of IEC 60598 specifies requirements for extra-low-voltage lighting systems for ELV
light sources, intended for ordinary interior use on supply voltages not exceeding 1 000 V. The
luminaires, being connected in parallel, are supplied via freely suspended continuous
supporting conductors or profiles, the current in the ELV part of the system not exceeding 25 A.
