Equipment for general lighting purposes - EMC immunity requirements

IEC 61547:2009 for electromagnetic immunity requirements applies to lighting equipment which is within the scope of IEC Technical Committee 34, such as lamps, auxiliaries and luminaires, intended either for connecting to a low voltage electricity supply or for battery operation. Excluded from the scope of this standard is equipment for which the immunity requirements are formulated in other IEC or CISPR standards. The main reason for this revision is to update the dates of the references to the basic standards which also required some editorial changes in the tables.

Equipements pour l'éclairage à usage général - Exigences concernant l'immunité CEM

La CEI 61547:2009 concernant les exigences d'immunité électromagnétique s'applique aux appareils d'éclairage entrant dans le domaine d'application du Comité d'études 34 de la CEI, tels que les lampes, les accessoires et les luminaires, destinés à être raccordés au réseau d'alimentation électrique public basse tension ou à fonctionner sur piles. Sont exclus du domaine d'application de la présente norme les équipements pour lesquels les exigences d'immunité sont formulées dans d'autres normes CEI ou CISPR. La raison principale de la présente révision est la mise à jour des dates des références aux normes fondamentales, ce qui a également nécessité certaines modifications rédactionnelles des tableaux.

This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2009-07-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Foreword
The text of document 34/127/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 61547, prepared by IEC TC 34, Lamps and
related equipment, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as
EN 61547 on 2009-07-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 61547:1995 + A1:2000.
The main reason for this revision is to update the dates of the references to the basic standards which
also required some editorial changes in the tables. Other changes are:
1 Scope: clearly excludes multimedia equipment with lamps (e.g. TV);
3.2 Enclosure port: removal of the “earth port” in Figure 1 as in the generic EMC standards; the note
below Figure 1 in EN 61547:1995 relates to a requirement and moved to the main text under 5.1
General;
5.6 Injected currents: update of the names of the example CDN’s;
5.7 Surges: test only at the peak of the mains voltage by deleting the requirement to test at zero
crossings;
5.8 Voltage dips and interruptions: clarifying that the voltage level changes at the zero crossing;
6.3.2 Independent auxiliaries: Table 14 has been simplified because most independent auxiliaries have
identical performance criteria;
6.3.3 Luminaires: Table 15 has been simplified because most luminaires have identical performance
criteria; correcting the error in the injected current column by changing the B into A for luminaires
with electronic ballast for discharge lamps; additionally, the requirements for emergency luminaires
operating in high risk task areas are updated to meet the levels specified in EN 60598-2-22;
7 Conditions during testing: the “under consideration” for the operating conditions for starting devices
has been deleted; the supply voltage and frequency during the test are clearly stated; shortening
the immunity test for equipment incorporating a regulating control by testing at one light output level
(50 % ± 10 %) instead of testing at three light output levels which are difficult to adjust and do not
provide extra protection.
This standard is to be read in conjunction with the relevant basic and/or product standard(s).
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2010-04-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2012-07-01
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential requirements of
EC Directive EMC (2004/108/EC). See Annex ZZ.
Annexes ZA and ZZ have been added by CENELEC.
