Luminaires - Part 2-13: Particular requirements - Ground recessed luminaires

IEC 60598-2-13:2006+A1:2011 specifies requirements for ground recessed luminaires incorporating electric light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1 000 V, for indoor or outdoor use, e.g. in gardens, yards, carriageways, parking lots, cycleways, footways, pedestrian areas, swimming pools areas outside zones for SELV, nurseries and similar applications. The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendment and has been prepared for user convenience. A vertical line in the margin shows where the base publication has been modified by amendment 1. Additions and deletions are displayed in red, with deletions being struck through. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (2006) and its amendment 1 (2011). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.

Luminaires - Partie 2-13: Règles particulières - Luminaires encastrés dans le sol

La CEI 60598-2-13:2006+A1:2011 spécifie les exigences applicables aux luminaires encastrés dans le sol incorporant des sources lumineuses électriques fonctionnant à une tension d'alimentation ne dépassant pas 1 000 V, pour applications intérieures et extérieures telles que jardins, jardins privatifs, voies de passage, parkings, pistes cyclables, passages piétons, zones piétonnes, zones environnantes des piscines à l'exclusion des zones pour TBTS, nurseries et applications similaires. Le contenu technique de cette version consolidée est donc identique à celui de l'édition de base et à son amendement; cette version a été préparée par commodité pour l'utilisateur. Une ligne verticale dans la marge indique où la publication de base a été modifiée par l'amendement 1. Les ajouts et les suppressions apparaissent en rouge, les suppressions sont barrées.  Cette version consolidée comprend la première édition (2006) et son amendement 1 (2011). Il n'est donc pas nécessaire de commander l'amendement avec cette publication.

Part 2-13: Particular requirements –
Ground recessed 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
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This consolidated version of IEC 60598-2-13 consists of the first edition (2006)
[documents 34D/856/FDIS and 34D/860/RVD] and its amendment 1 (2011) [documents
34D/1009/CDV and 34D/1041/RVC]. It bears the edition number 1.1.
The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendment and
has been prepared for user convenience. A vertical line in the margin shows where the
base publication has been modified by amendment 1. Additions and deletions are
displayed in red, with deletions being struck through.

13.6.3 Resistance to thermal shock
Glass covers shall be resistant to the effect of thermal shock.
Compliance is checked by the following test:
The luminaire and glass cover shall be preconditioned by the thermal endurance test given in
13.12 of this standard.
The luminaire shall be positioned such that as far as possible its cover glass is horizontal and
facing upwards. The luminaire is operated until the maximum glass cover temperature
measured during thermal test is attained. The luminaire is then switched off and disconnected
from the electrical supply. Immediately following the electrical disconnection, 1 litre of iced
water (maximum 5°C) shall be poured from a height of approximately 1 m onto the glass
cover. The time taken to pour the water shall not exceed 5 s.
NOTE This test can result in violent shattering of glass. Appropriate safety precautions should be taken to protect
persons performing this test and the surrounding environment. For example: wear protective clothing and face
visor, erect screens around the test luminaire to protect surrounding area and test personnel, use a long handle
flask to pour water from distance.
Compliance is checked by visual inspection and the glass shall not be broken.
