AC and/or DC-supplied electronic controlgear for discharge lamps (excluding fluorescent lamps) - Performance requirements for low frequency squarewave operation

IEC 62811:2015 specifies performance requirements for electronic controlgear for use on a.c. and/or d.c. supplies up to 1 000 V and/or a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz, associated with discharge lamps, as specified in IEC 61167, which have information for low frequency square wave operation, where the frequency range of the low frequency is from 70 Hz to 400 Hz.

Appareillage électronique alimenté en courant alternatif et/ou continu pour lampes à décharge (à l'exclusion des lampes fluorescentes) - Exigences de performance pour le fonctionnement en onde carrée de basse fréquence

L'IEC 62811:2015 spécifie les exigences de performance des appareillages électroniques destinés à être utilisés sur des alimentations en courant alternatif et/ou en courant continu allant jusqu'à 1000 V et/ou sur des alimentations en courant alternatif jusqu'à 1 000 V à 50 Hz ou 60 Hz, associés avec des lampes à décharge, comme spécifié dans l'IEC 61167, comportant des informations concernant le fonctionnement en onde carrée de basse fréquence, lorsque la plage de fréquences de la basse fréquence est comprise entre 70 Hz et 400 Hz.

Izmenično in/ali enosmerno napajana krmilja za razelektritvene sijalke (razen fluorescentnih sijalk) - Tehnične zahteve za obratovanje pri nizkofrekvenčnih pravokotnih valovanjih

Ta mednarodni standard določa tehnične zahteve za elektronsko krmilje za uporabo pri izmeničnem in/ali enosmernem napajanju do 1000 V in/ali izmeničnem napajanju do 1000 V pri 50 Hz ali 60 Hz, povezane z razelektritvenimi sijalkami, kot je določeno v standardu IEC 61167, z informacijami za obratovanje pri nizkofrekvenčnih pravokotnih valovanjih, pri čemer je frekvenčni razpon nizke frekvence od 70 Hz do 400 Hz.
Preskusi, obravnavani v tem standardu, so tipski preskusi. Zahteve za preskušanje posameznih krmilj med proizvodnjo niso vključene.
Obstajajo regionalni standardi v zvezi z upravljanjem harmonikov napajalnega toka in odpornostjo za končne izdelke, kot so svetilke in neodvisno krmilje. V svetilki je v tem smislu prevladujoče krmilje. Krmilje naj bi bilo skupaj z drugimi sestavnimi deli v skladu s temi standardi.
