Mednarodni sistem za kodiranje sijalk (ILCOS)
Ta mednarodni standard podaja pravila za mednarodni sistem za kodiranje sijalk in zajema vse kategorije sijalk, izvzemajoč sijalke na vozilih. Kodiranje je določeno za glavne vrste sijalk, za ostale pa bo primerno sledilo kot dopolnila tega standarda. Namen mednarodnega sistema za kodiranje svetilk je
- izboljšati komunikacijo o različnih vrstah sijalk;
- pomagati pri razpravah glede medsebojne zamenljivosti in združljivosti proizvodov;
- ustvarjanje tesnejšega povezovanja med mednarodnimi standardi in proizvajalčevo literaturo (na primer, v prihodnosti bi koda lahko bila podana v pomembnih delih standarda);
- omogočiti pravilno postavitev sijalk;
- da se uporablja kot komplementarno označevanje svetil;
- da zamenja državne in regijske kodirne sisteme.

INTRODUCTION TO THE AMENDMENT
This proposal serves:
a) the implementation of the low frequency square wave operation in ILCOS (International
Lamp Coding System):
ILCOS L – wattage – lamp voltage range/starting device/current wave form and frequency –
lamp cap – dimensions
b) the implementation of lamps for use in high-pressure mercury equipment under 5.7.1.2. In
order to distinguish this, other lamps are listed as normal lamps under 5.7.1.1.
c) further editorial changes as being presented with PRESCO(RTK)198 and agreed by
PRESCO.
