Part 1: Tungsten filament lamps for domestic and
similar general lighting purposes



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.
International Standard IEC 60432-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 34A: Lamps, of IEC
technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment.
This consolidated version of IEC 60432-1 consists of the second edition (1999) [documents
34A/873/FDIS and 34A/887/RVD], its amendment 1 (2005) [documents 34A/1118/FDIS and
34A/1127/RVD] and its amendment 2 (2011) [documents 34A/1475/CDV and 34A/1519/RVC].
The technical content is therefore identical to the base edition and its amendments and has
been prepared for user convenience.
It bears the edition number 2.2.
A vertical line in the margin shows where the base publication has been modified by
amendments 1 and 2.

INCANDESCENT LAMPS –
SAFETY SPECIFICATIONS –

Part 1: Tungsten filament lamps for domestic and
similar general lighting purposes



1 General
1.1 Scope
International Standard IEC 60432-1 specifies the safety and interchangeability requirements of
tungsten filament incandescent lamps for general lighting service having:
– rated wattage up to and including 200 W;
– rated voltage of 50 V to 250 V inclusive;
*
– bulbs of the A, B, C, G, M, P, PS, PAR or R shapes , or other bulb shapes where the
lamps are intended to serve the same purpose as lamps with the foregoing bulb shapes;
– bulbs with all kinds of finishes;
**
– caps B15d, B22d, E12, E14, E17, E26 , E26d, E26/50´39, E27 or E27/51´39.
As far as is reasonably practicable, this standard is also applicable to lamps with bulbs and
caps other than those mentioned above, but which serve the same purpose.
This standard specifies the method a manufacturer should use to show that his product
conforms to this standard on the basis of whole production appraisal in association with his test
records on finished products. This method can also be applied for certification purposes.
Details of a batch test procedure which can be used to make limited assessment of batches
are also given.
This part of IEC 60432 covers photobiological safety according to IEC 62471 and
IEC/TR 62471-2. Lamps covered by this part of IEC 60432 do not reach risk levels that require
risk group marking.
This standard is concerned with safety criteria only and does not take into account the
performance of tungsten filament lamps with respect to luminous flux, life or power
consumption characteristics. Readers should refer to IEC 60064 for such characteristics with
respect to types normally used for general lighting service.
__________
*
See IEC 60887 for description of the letter symbols. Associated traditional names are:
– Pear shape = A, PS
– Mushroom = M
– Candle = B, C (in North America)
– Round bulb = P
– Globular = G
– Reflector = R
– Parabolic reflector = PAR

2.2.2 Dichroic reflectorized (cool beam) lamps and bowl mirror lamps
The immediate lamp wrapping or container shall be marked with the relevant symbol as shown
in annex B.
2.2.3 Lamps with operating position limitations
For lamps requiring operating position limitations, such as some 60 W candle and round bulb
lamps capped with B22d or E27 caps which can comply with the requirement of the lamp cap
temperature rise only by excluding the cap-up position, the immediate lamp wrapping or
container shall be marked with the appropriate symbol. An example is shown in annex B.
NOTE The requirements in 2.2.2 and 2.2.3 are intended as information for the end-user of the lamp.
2.3 Protection against accidental contact in screw lampholders
Dimensions of screw capped lamps shall be such that safety against accidental contact is
ensured according to IEC 60061.

+A2:2011
2.4 Lamp cap temperature rise (Dt )
s
2.4.1 Average cap temperature rise
The average cap temperature rise per class of lamp manufactured in a period of 12 months
shall not exceed the following:
a) the appropriate value as specified in table 2; or
b) 45 K lower than the relevant values in table 2 where advantage is taken of the lower
maximum cap temperature of 2.5.4 b).
However, lamps fitted with E12, E17 and E26 caps with higher Dt values intended for special
s
applications are permitted, provided suitable cautionary notices accompany each lamp.
NOTE In North America, lampholder and luminaire designs may be primarily aligned with the cap temperature rise
characteristics of common frosted, clear and white lamps. Therefore, lamps with other bulb finishes or other
characteristics yielding a higher cap temperature rise may require special cautionary notices.
2.4.2 Compliance
Compliance shall be checked by measurements of lamp cap temperature rise on lamps in the
same class in accordance with the test procedure specified in IEC 60360.
If the lamp is marked with a voltage range, the cap temperature rise shall be measured at the
mean voltage provided the limits of the voltage range do not differ by more than 2,5 % from the
mean voltage. For lamps with a wider voltage range, the measurement shall be at the highest
marked voltage.
NOTE Table 2 shows upper limits for average cap temperature rise which apply to all lamps listed by wattage,
bulb and cap. In practice, several design features such as light centre length, mount shape and bulb finish affect
cap temperature rise, but such factors are encompassed in each limit.
2.4.3 Batch testing
For the testing of batches when the 20 lamp sample size is needed, the average shall not
exceed the appropriate value in accordance with 2.4.1, with an allowance of +9 K.
2.5 Resistance to torque
2.5.1 Caps
Caps shall be so constructed and assembled to the bulbs that they remain attached during
normal operation.
2.5.2 Unused lamps
For unused lamps, the lamp cap shall not move relative to the bulb when subjected to the
relevant torque value from table 3 as tested in accordance with C.1. Where the means of
attachment is other than by capping cement or adhesive, relative movement between bulb and
cap is permitted, provided it does not exceed 10°.
2.5.3 Resistance to heat
The lamp cap and capping cement or other means of attachment shall endure exposure to heat
at a level equal to the maximum cap temperature for which that class of lamp is designed.
The lamp cap shall not move relative to the bulb when subjected to the relevant torque values
of table 4 after the heating test specified in C.2 at the appropriate temperature of 2.5.4. In the
case where the means of attachment is other than by capping cement or adhesive, relative
movement between bulb and cap is permitted, provided it does not exceed 10°.
