Edison screw lampholders
IEC 60238:2016 is available as IEC 60238:2016 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60238:2016 applies to lampholders with Edison thread E14, E27 and E40, designed for connection to the supply of lamps and semi-luminaires only. It also applies to switched-lampholders for use in AC circuits only, where the working voltage does not exceed 250 V r.m.s. This ninth edition cancels and replaces the eighth edition published in 2004, Amendment 1: 2008 and Amendment 2:2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) Addition of a pull test for certain E5 and E10 lampholders. b) Annex D listing amended requirements/clauses which require products to be retested.

Douilles à vis Edison pour lampes
L'IEC 60238:2016 s'applique aux douilles à vis Edison E14, E27 et E40 destinées uniquement au raccordement des lampes et des semi-luminaires à l'alimentation. Elle s'applique aussi aux douilles à interrupteur destinées exclusivement aux circuits de courant alternatif dont la tension de travail ne dépasse pas 250 V (valeur efficace). Cette neuvième édition annule et remplace la huitième édition parue en 2004, l'Amendement 1: 2008 et l'Amendement 2:2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: a) Addition d'un essai de traction pour certaines douilles E5 et E10. b) Une Annexe D répertoriant les exigences/articles amendés nécessitant la réalisation de nouveaux essais sur les produits.
Okovi za žarnice in sijalke z Edisonovim navojem (IEC 60238:2016)
Ta mednarodni standard velja za okove za žarnice in sijalke z Edisonovim navojem E14, E27 in E40, ki so zasnovani samo za povezavo sijalk in polsijalk1 z napajanjem.
Uporablja se tudi za okove za žarnice in sijalke s stikali za uporabo samo v izmeničnih tokokrogih, kjer delovna napetost ne presega 250 V RMS.
Ta standard velja tudi za okove za žarnice in sijalke z Edisonovim navojem E5, ki so zasnovani za povezavo serije povezanih sijalk z napajalnim omrežjem z delovno napetostjo do 25 V in za uporabo v notranjih prostorih, ter za okove za žarnice in sijalke z Edisonovim navojem E10, ki so zasnovani za povezavo serije povezanih sijalk z napajalnim omrežjem z delovno napetostjo do 60 V ter za uporabo v notranjih in zunanjih prostorih. Uporablja se tudi za okove E10 za vgradnjo, za povezavo posamezne sijalke z napajanjem. Ti okovi za žarnice in sijalke niso namenjeni prodaji na drobno.
Kolikor je smiselno ta standard zajema tudi druge okove za žarnice in sijalke, ki nimajo Edisonovega navoja in so zasnovane za povezavo serije povezanih sijalk z napajanjem.
OPOMBA: Takšni okovi se na primer uporabljajo pri svetlobnih nizih za osvetlitev novoletnih jelk. Kolikor je smiselno ta standard zajema tudi adapterje.
Ta standard zajema tudi okove, ki so, deloma ali v celoti, del sijalk ali bodo vgrajeni v naprave. Zajema samo zahteve za okove za sijalke in žarnice. Za vse druge zahteve, kot je zaščita pred električnim udarom v območju terminalov in vznožkov, se upoštevajo zahteve zadevnega standarda za naprave, ki se preskusijo po vgradnji v ustrezno opremo, ta oprema pa je preskušena po lastnem standardu. Takšni okovi ter tudi okovi, ki imajo zaskočno zunanjo lupino, ki jih uporabljajo samo proizvajalci sijalk, niso namenjeni prodaji na drobno.
Ta standard velja za okove, ki se uporabljajo v notranjih ali zunanjih prostorih za svetlobne naprave v stanovanjskih in industrijskih objektih. Uporablja se tudi za okove v obliki sveč. Na območjih, kjer prevladujejo posebne razmere, npr. pri cestni razsvetljavi, na ladjah, v vozilih ter v nevarnih območjih, npr. kjer so možne eksplozije, so morda potrebne posebne konstrukcije.
Ta standard se ne uporablja za okove E26d za lučke za okrasitev novoletne jelke.
Ta standard temelji na naslednjih podatkih v zvezi s sijalkami za splošno razsvetljavo:
– vznožki E14 se uporabljajo za sijalke s tokom do 2 A;
– vznožki E27 se uporabljajo za sijalke s tokom do 4 A;
– vznožki E40 se uporabljajo za sijalke s tokom do 16 A oziroma 32 A, če nazivna napetost napajanja ne presega 130 V (glej 5.5 in 6.3).
Če so v svetilkah uporabljeni okovi, so njihove najvišje temperature delovanja določene v IEC 60598.

Annex ZZ
(informative)
Relationship between this European standard and the safety objectives of
Directive 2014/35/EU [2014 OJ L96] aimed to be covered
This European standard has been prepared under a Commission’s standardisation request relating to
harmonised standards in the field of the Low Voltage Directive, M/511, to provide one voluntary means
of conforming to safety objectives of Directive 2014/35/EU of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 26 February 2014 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to the
making available on the market of electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits
[2014 OJ L96].
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive,
compliance with the normative clauses of this standard given in Table ZZ.1 confers, within the limits of
the scope of this standard, a presumption of conformity with the corresponding safety objectives of
that Directive, and associated EFTA regulations.
