Equipment for general lighting purposes - EMC immunity requirements
IEC 61547:2009 for electromagnetic immunity requirements applies to lighting equipment which is within the scope of IEC Technical Committee 34, such as lamps, auxiliaries and luminaires, intended either for connecting to a low voltage electricity supply or for battery operation. Excluded from the scope of this standard is equipment for which the immunity requirements are formulated in other IEC or CISPR standards. The main reason for this revision is to update the dates of the references to the basic standards which also required some editorial changes in the tables. The contents of the corrigendum of April 2010 and Interpretation Sheet 1 of June 2013 have been included in this copy.
Equipements pour l'éclairage à usage général - Exigences concernant l'immunité CEM
La CEI 61547:2009 concernant les exigences d'immunité électromagnétique s'applique aux appareils d'éclairage entrant dans le domaine d'application du Comité d'études 34 de la CEI, tels que les lampes, les accessoires et les luminaires, destinés à être raccordés au réseau d'alimentation électrique public basse tension ou à fonctionner sur piles. Sont exclus du domaine d'application de la présente norme les équipements pour lesquels les exigences d'immunité sont formulées dans d'autres normes CEI ou CISPR. La raison principale de la présente révision est la mise à jour des dates des références aux normes fondamentales, ce qui a également nécessité certaines modifications rédactionnelles des tableaux. Le contenu du corrigendum d'avril 2010 et de la feuille d'interprétation 1 de juin 2013 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.

EQUIPMENT FOR GENERAL LIGHTING PURPOSES –
EMC IMMUNITY REQUIREMENTS
INTERPRETATION SHEET 1
This interpretation sheet has been prepared by IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and
related equipment.
The text of this interpretation sheet is based on the following documents:
ISH Report on voting
34/180/ISH 34/185/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this interpretation sheet can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.
___________
The draft is based on the outcome of documents 34/155/DC and 34/158/INF.
Introduction:
Test conditions of dimmable lighting equipment are unclear in IEC 61547 for dimmable
lighting equipment with dim level other than 50 % ± 10 %. Some HID control units have only
one dim level, for example 65 %.
Present text, Clause 7, second paragraph, first sentence:
“Equipment including a regulating control shall be tested at a light output level of 50 %
± 10 %.”
Interpretation for equipment which could not fulfill the test dim level conditions:
If a light output level of 50 % ± 10 % is not available for equipment including regulating
control, the test shall be done at the level which is closest to 50 %. If two steps equally distant
to 50 % are available, the lower level (< 50 %) shall be used for the test.

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.
