Luminaire performance - Part 2-1: Particular requirements - LED luminaires
IEC 62722-2-1:2023 specifies the performance requirements for LED luminaires, together with the test methods and conditions. It applies to LED luminaires for general lighting purposes. Semi-luminaires are not covered under the scope of this document. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
alignment with IEC 62717:2014, IEC 62717:2014/AMD1:2015 and IEC 62717:2014/AMD2:2019;
clarification of temperature requirements for the maintenance test, in 10.2 and Annex A;
introduction of a new Annex C on methods for calculation and measurements of parameters for extension of electric and photometric data.
Performance des luminaires - Partie 2-1: Exigences particulières - Luminaires à LED
L'IEC 62722-2-1:2023 spécifie les exigences de performance relatives aux luminaires à LED, ainsi que les méthodes et conditions d'essai. Elle s'applique aux luminaires à LED destinés à l'éclairage général. Les semi-luminaires ne relèvent pas du domaine d'application du présent document. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
alignement sur l'IEC 62717:2014, l'IEC 62717:2014/AMD1:2015 et l'IEC 62717:2014/AMD2:2019;
clarification des exigences de température pour l'essai de conservation en 10.2 et à l'Annexe A;
introduction d'une nouvelle Annexe C sur les méthodes de calcul et les mesurages des paramètres pour la transposition des données électriques et photométriques.

LUMINAIRE PERFORMANCE –
Part 2-1: Particular requirements – LED luminaires
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensabl
