INTRODUCTION
Add the following new introduction
The standards IEC 62471 and IEC/TR 62471-2 contain horizontal requirements available that
need to be introduced into product standards, e.g. to IEC 61195.
The horizontal requirements are transformed into requirements for double-capped fluorescent
lamps.
The lamps within the scope of this standard are general lighting service (GLS) lamps
according to the definition 3.11 of IEC 62471:2006,".lamps intended for lighting spaces that
are typically occupied or viewed by people."
According to Clause 6 of IEC 62471:2006, radiation of GLS lamps is measured at a distance
equivalent to 500 lx.
Measured at the 500 lx distance, GLS lamps will not exceed risk group 1 for blue light hazard
and risk group 0 for IR radiation. This combination of risk group and hazard does not require
marking (Table 1 of IEC/TR 62471-2:2009).
Hazards from UV radiation of GLS lamps are now covered in 2.13 of IEC 61195.
Hence, IEC 62471 does not require any additional marking for GLS lamps.
