Product standard covering luminous signs with discharge lamps and/or LED (light emitting diodes) and/or EL (electroluminescent) lightsources with a nominal voltage not exceeding 1000 V, with the exclusion of general lighting, traffic- or emergency related purpose

A luminous sign, light-artwork or architectural accent lighting (finished functional sign, abbreviated: sign) shall comply with this product standard. The finished functional sign as a product fulfilling its intended purpose as luminous sign can be achieved by combining products with similar purpose through installation (according to HD 384/HD 60364 series) in order to yield a new product by itself. NOTE 1: The scope of this product standard is specified by the areas C,D and E in the figure of Annex A. NOTE 2: Even if the physical execution of a particular luminous sign might qualify the luminous sign to meet the requirements of a luminaire according to EN 60598, the exclusion of general lighting, traffic and emergency related purpose is intended to avoid the requirements of EN 60598 which are impracticable and/or impossible to fulfil for most luminous signs. To cover the special safety problems related with luminous signs, the present product standard is intended.

Produktnorm für Lichtwerbeanlagen mit Entladungslampen und/oder LED- (lichtemittierende Dioden) und/oder EL- (elektrolumineszierende) Lichtquellen mit einer Nennspannung bis einschließlich 1 000 V, ausgenommen Allgemeinbeleuchtung, Verkehrs- oder Notbeleuchtung

Norme de produit couvrant les enseignes lumineuses avec des lampes à décharge et/ou à LED (diodes électroluminescentes) et/ou les sources lumineuses électroluminescentes (EL) avec une tension nominale ne dépassant pas 1000 V, à l'exclusion de l'éclairage général ainsi que des enseignes relatives à la circulation routière et aux situations d'urgence

Standard za proizvod, ki zajema svetlobne znake z razelektritvenimi sijalkami in/ali diodami LED (svetleče diode) in/ali EL (elektroluminescenčnimi) svetlobnimi viri z nazivno napetostjo, ki ne presega 1000 V, razen splošne, cestne ali zasilne razsvetljave

Svetlobni znak, svetlobna umetnost ali arhitekturna osvetlitev (dokončan funkcionalni znak, skrajšano »znak«) morajo biti skladni s tem standardom za proizvod.
Dokončan funkcionalni znak kot proizvod, ki izpolnjuje svoj predvideni namen kot svetlobni znak, je mogoče doseči z združitvijo proizvodov s podobnim namenom uporabe prek namestitve (v skladu s skupino standardov HD 384/HD 60364), pri čemer nastane nov proizvod.
OPOMBA 1: Področje uporabe tega standarda za proizvod je določeno s polji C, D in E na sliki v dodatku A.
OPOMBA 2: Čeprav fizična izdelava določenega svetlobnega znaka lahko pomeni, da svetlobni znak izpolnjuje zahteve svetilke v skladu s standardom EN 60598, je izključenost splošne, cestne ali zasilne razsvetljave namenjena neupoštevanju zahtev iz standarda EN 60598, ki za večino svetlobnih znakov niso praktične in/ali jih ti ne morejo izpolniti. Ta standard za proizvod je namenjen obravnavi posebnih težav, povezanih s svetlobnimi znaki.

This product standard contains electrical safety requirements for luminous signs, light-artwork or
architectural accent lighting (finished functional sign, abbreviated: sign) using light sources with a
nominal voltage not exceeding 1000 V with the exclusion of general lighting, traffic- or emergency
related purposes.
The finished functional sign as a product fulfilling its intended purpose as luminous sign can be
achieved by combining products with similar purpose through installation (according to HD 384
series/HD 60364) in order to yield a new product by itself.
NOTE 1 The scope of this product standard is specified by the areas C, D and E in the figure of Annex A.
NOTE 2 Even if the physical execution of a particular luminous sign might qualify the luminous sign to meet
the requirements of a luminaire according to EN 60598, the exclusion of general lighting, traffic and emergency
related purpose is intended to avoid the requirements of EN 60598 which are impracticable and/or impossible to
fulfill for most luminous signs. To cover the special safety problems related with luminous signs, the present
product standard is intended.
