Luminaires - Part 2-8: Particular requirements - Handlamps

IEC 60598-2-8:2013 specifies requirements for handlamps and similar portable luminaires which are held in the hand, hooked up or resting on a surface for use with electric light sources on supply voltages not exceeding 250 V. It is to be read in conjunction with those sections of Part 1 to which reference is made. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 1996, its Amendment 1 (2000) and its Amendment 2 (2007). It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition. a) The requirements have been updated to make them consistent and to solve contradicting requirements introduced in the Amendment 2. In that amendment, a requirement was introduced specifying that handlamp shall always be classified as rough service luminaire only. The implication of this statement was that according to 4.13.4 of Part 1 this kind of luminaire shall always be IP54. This requirements is in contradiction with several points of this Part 2 where it is considered acceptable for ordinary luminaires (e.g. 8.11.1, 8.11.2 and 8.13.1). b) Furthermore, the contradiction between the requirement in 8.7.1 and 8.7.2 regarding the type of material used for the protective cover has been corrected.

Luminaires - Partie 2-8: Exigences particulières - Baladeuses

La CEI 60598-2-8:2013 spécifie les exigences applicables aux baladeuses et aux luminaires portatifs analogues qui sont tenus à la main, suspendus, ou posés sur une surface, à utiliser avec des sources lumineuses électriques pour des tensions d'alimentation ne dépassant pas 250 V. Elle doit être lue conjointement avec les sections de la Partie 1 auxquelles il est fait référence. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition, parue en 1996, son Amendement 1 (2000) et son Amendement 2 (2007). Elle constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente. a) Les exigences ont été mises à jour pour les rendre cohérentes et pour corriger des contradictions introduites dans l'Amendement 2. Une exigence a été introduite dans cet amendement spécifiant que les baladeuses doivent toujours être classées en tant que luminaires pour conditions sévères d'emploi uniquement. Cette déclaration impliquait que conformément au 4.13.4 de la Partie 1, ce type de luminaire doit toujours être IP54. Cette exigence est en contradiction avec plusieurs points de la Partie 2 où les luminaires ordinaires sont considérés comme acceptables (par exemple en 8.11.1, 8.11.2 et 8.13.1). b) De plus, la contradiction entre les exigences 8.7.1 et 8.7.2 concernant le type de matériel utilisé pour le capot de protection a été corrigée.

Svetilke - 2-8. del: Posebne zahteve - Ročne svetilke

Ta del standarda IEC 60598 določa zahteve za ročne svetilke in podobna prenosna svetila, ki se držijo v roki, so obešena ali položena na površino za uporabo z električnimi svetlobnimi viri z napajanjem z omrežnimi napetostmi do 250 V. Uporablja se skupaj s tistimi razdelki 1. dela, na katere se sklicuje. Ročne svetilke, ki jih je mogoče pritrditi na podporo z vijakom s krilci, sponko ali magnetom, in svetila za pregled notranjosti cevi so vključena v ta del standarda IEC 60598.
