Appareils auxiliaires pour lampes - Dispositifs d'amorçage (autres que starters à lueur) - Exigences de performance

Spécifie les prescriptions de performances relatives aux dispositifs d'amorçage (starters et amorceurs) pour lampes tubulaires à fluorescence et autres lampes à décharge, alimentés en courant alternatif de 50 Hz ou 60 Hz jusqu'à 1 000 V et produisant des impulsions d'amorçage ne dépassant pas 5 kV. Doit être lue conjointement avec la EN 60926.

Pribor za sijalke - Vžigne naprave (razen tlivnih starterjev) - Tehnične zahteve (IEC 60927:2007)

Ta mednarodni standard določa tehnične zahteve za vžigne naprave (starterje in sprožilce) za cevne fluorescenčne in druge razelektritvene sijalke za uporabo pri izmeničnem napajanju do 1000 V pri 50 Hz ali 60 Hz, pri čemer nastajajo vžigni impulzi, ki ne presegajo 5 kV. Ta standard se uporablja v povezavi s standardoma IEC 61347-1 in IEC 61347-2-1. OPOMBA 1: Vsi tlivni starterji za fluorescenčne in druge razelektritvene sijalke, vključno s termoreleji/izklopnimi stikali, bodo vključeni v standard IEC 60155. OPOMBA 2: Obstajajo regionalni standardi v zvezi z urejanjem zahtev za elektromagnetno združljivost za končne izdelke, kot so svetilke in neodvisne krmilne naprave. V svetilki je v tem smislu prevladujoča krmilna naprava. Krmilna naprava naj bi bila skupaj z drugimi sestavnimi deli v skladu s temi standardi.
