LUMINAIRES
Part 2: Particular requirements
Section Nineteen - Air-handling luminaires (safety requirements)
FOREWORD
1)
The formal decisions or agreements of the I EC on technical matters, prepared by Technical Committees on which all the National
Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as possible,
an international consensus of opinion
on the subjects dealt with.
2)
They have the form of recommendations for international use and they are accepted by the National Committees in that
sense.
3)
In order to promote international unification, the IEC expresses the wish that all National Committees should adopt the text of
the I E
C recommendation for their national rules in so far as national conditions will permit. Any divergence between the I E C
recommendation and the corresponding national rules should, as far as possible, be clearly indicated in the latter.
PREFACE
This publication has been prepared by Sub-Committee 34D: Luminaires, of I EC Technical Committee
No. 34: Lamps and Related Equipment. It is one section of the multi-section Publication 598 which is
intended to replace IEC Publication 162: Luminaires for Tubular Fluorescent Lamps, and which intro-
duces requirements for other luminaires.
A first draft was discussed at the meeting held in Brussels in 1977. As a result of this meeting, a draft,
Document 34D(Central Office)60, was submitted to National Committees for approval under the Six
Months' Rule in May 1979.
The National Committees of the following countries voted explicitly in favour of publication:
Egypt Norway
Finland Poland
Germany Romania
Ireland South Africa (Republic of)
Israel Sweden
Italy Switzerland
Japan United Kingdom
Netherlands United States of America
This publication should be read in conjunction with I EC Publication 598-1: Luminaires, Pa
rt 1:
General Requirements and Tests.

LUMINAIRES
Part 2: Particular requirements
Section Nineteen - Air -handling luminaires (safety requirements)
19.1 Scope
This section of Part 2 of I EC Publication 598 specifies safety requirements for air-handling
luminaires for use with a ventilation duct or ventilated space (plenum), for use with tubular fluor-
escent lamps on supply voltages not exceeding 1 000 V. It is to be read in conjunction with those
sections of Pa rt 1 to which reference is made.
Attention is drawn to the fact that this section specifies only the safety aspects of air-handling
luminaires; no requirements are specified at present for performance aspects.
Notes 1. — The expressions "ventilation" and "ventilated" in this section refer to forced ventilation.
2. —
No requirements are specified at present in this section for the use of tungsten filament lamps and discharge lamps
other than tubular fluorescent lamps.
19.2 General test requirements
The provisions of Section Zero of IEC Publication 598-1: Luminaires, Pa rt 1: General Require-
ments and Tests, apply. The tests described in each appropriate section of Pa rt 1 shall be carried out
in the order listed in this section of Pa rt 2.
19.3 Definitions
For the purposes of this section, the definitions of Section One of Publication 598-1 apply
together with the following definitions:
1) Air-handling luminaire
A luminaire specially designed for use in association with an air conditioning system.
Note. —
The air may pass either through the lamp chamber or through separate passages.
2) Static operation
Operation of a luminaire when not handling either forced supply or extract air but permitting
convection.
19.4
Classification of luminaires
The provisions of Section Two of Publication 598-1 apply, except that air-handling luminaires
shall be of Class I, Class II, or Class III only.
19.5 Marking
The provisions of Section Three of Publication 598-1 apply, together with the requirements of
Sub-clauses 19.5.1 to 19.5.4.
598-2-19 © I EC 1981 — 9 —
19.5.1 Recessed air-handling luminaires which are not marked with the symbol shall have a warning
notice on an attached label, or given in the manufacturer's instruction leaflet supplied with the
luminaire, that no part of the outer surface of the luminaire within the recess is suitable for
mounting within 25 mm of normally flammable material.
luminaire
19.5.2 For air-handling luminaires marked with the symbol, the type of construction of the
or given in the manu-
shall be indicated. This information shall be marked on the luminaire
facturer's instruction leaflet, and shall consist of one or both of the following wordings:
"For connection to ventilation duct".
"For use in ventilated space".
Where attachments are added to luminaires designed for use in ventilated space to make them
suitable for use with ventilation ducts, these attachments shall be marked with the words:
"For connection to ventilation duct".
19.5.3 The "special conditions" referred to in Sub-clause 3.3.6 of Section Three of Publication 598-1
shall include the following:
and normally flammable parts
a) Minimum permissible space between the body of the luminaire
of the building structure if the luminaire is not marked with the symbol.
b)
Type of usage, for example, "for use in ventilated space".
19.5.4 For an explanation of the significance of ta as applied to air-handling luminaires (see Appen-
dix A).
19.6 Construction
The provisions of Section Four of Publication 598-1 apply together with the requirements of
Sub-clauses 19.6.1 to 19.6.3.
19.6.1 For recessed parts, the impact energy and spring compression required for the test specified in
Clause 4.13 of Section Four of Publication 598-1 shall be as given in Table I of this section.

19.6.2 If, in order to obviate fire hazard, the luminaire is manufactured with spacers or similar devices
of the building structure, these devices shall
to ensure a certain minimum clearance from some pa rt
be fixed in such a manner that they cannot be removed without damaging the luminaire or making
it impossible for it to be properly installed. This requirement does not apply to spacers provided
only for constructional reasons and which have no influence on safety.

Note. —
Fire hazardous locations: In some countries, ventilation systems are regarded as fire hazardous locations and, in
these cases, it is suggested that the following additional requirements apply:
a)
Air-handling luminaires should have a body of metal or other non-combustible material and be so constructed
that the temperature of the body does not exceed 100 °C when the luminaire is tested as described in Sub-clause
19.12. The body may be provided with ape rtures, however, if their total area does not exceed 10% of the area of
the body.
b) The width of horizontal, upward facing, ape rtures should not exceed 6 mm and the width of other ape
rtures
should not exceed 10 mm. In addition, the width of the projection in a ho rizontal plane of upward facing apertures
in other planes should not exceed 6 mm.
For air-handling luminaires with stubs for the connection of ventilation ducts, however, there is no limitation on
the width of the ape
rtures.
c) Components, such as ballasts and connecting devices and
through wiring in air-handling luminaires, should be
protected by an enclosure of non-combustible material that gives sufficient protection against the ingress of dust.
This enclosure may be part
of the component. This requirement does not apply to lampholders and starter-
holders and their connecting devices and for sho rt conductors connected to them, if the rated current of these
components does not exceed 2 A.
19.6.3 The requirements for the direct mounting of luminaires on normally flammable surfaces, that is,
luminaires marked with the
symbol (see Sub-clause 4.16.1 of Section Four of Publication 598-1),
do not apply to holes for forced ventilation. For air-handling luminaires with boots (air terminal
devices) the surfaces of the boots are tested as pa rt of the surface of the luminaire.
19.7
Creepage distances and clearances
The provisions of Section Eleven of Publication 598-1 apply.
19.8 Provision for earthing
The provisions of Section Seven of Publication 598-1 apply.
19.9 Terminals
The provisions of Sections Fourteen and Fifteen of Publication 598-1 apply.
19.10 External and internal wiring
The provisions of Section Five of Publication 598-1 apply, together with the requirements of
Sub-clause 19.10.1.
19.10.1 Where a flexible cable or cord is used as a means of connection to the supply and is supplied by
the luminaire manufacturer, it shall meet the mechanical and electrical requirements of IEC
Publications 227: Polyvinyl Chloride Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including
450/750 V, and 245: Rubber Insulated Cables of Rated Voltages up to and Including 450/750 V,
and shall be capable of withstanding, without deterioration, the highest temperature to which it may
be exposed under normal conditions of use.
Compliance shall be checked by the tests of Sub-clause 19.12.
Note. —
Flexible cables and cords are used with recessed air-handling luminaires for the following reasons:
a) The flexible cable or cord cannot be easily touched and is out of reach within the recess.
b) The installation of the luminaire into the recess is facilitated.
c) The adjustment of adjustable recessed air-handling luminaires is facilitated.
19.11 Protection against electric shock
The provisions of Section Eight of Publication 598-1 apply.
