LUMINAIRE PERFORMANCE –

Part 1: General requirements


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.
A PAS is a technical specification not fulfilling the requirements for a standard, but made
available to the public.
IEC-PAS 62722-1 has been processed by subcommittee 34D: Luminaires, of IEC technical
committee 34: Lamps and related equipment.
The text of this PAS is based on the This PAS was approved for
following document: publication by the P-members of the
committee concerned as indicated in
the following document
Draft PAS Report on voting
34D/998/PAS 34D/1014/RVD

Following publication of this PAS, which is a pre-standard publication, the technical committee
or subcommittee concerned may transform it into an International Standard.

This PAS shall remain valid for an initial maximum period of 3 years starting from the
publication date. The validity may be extended for a single period up to a maximum of
3 years, at the end of which it shall be published as another type of normative document, or
shall be withdrawn.

INTRODUCTION
The first edition of a performance PAS for luminaires (general requirements) acknowledges
the need for defining performance data to be provided, the presentation of this data, the basis
of its measurement, and the associated tolerances that may be reasonably expected.
Information to support responsible environmental use is also included. Part 2 sections to this
Part 1 will be introduced where additional performance requirements for specific types of light
source are required.
The provisions in the PAS represent the technical knowledge of experts from the fields of the
luminaire industry and associated components such as lamps and controlgear.

LUMINAIRE PERFORMANCE –

Part 1: General requirements



1 Scope
This PAS covers specific performance and environmental requirements for luminaires,
incorporating electric light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1 000 V where
claims of operational performance are made. Unless otherwise detailed performance data
covered under the scope of this PAS are for the luminaires in a condition representative of
new manufacture, with any specified initial aging procedures completed.
IEC/PAS 62722-1 covers requirements for luminaires to support energy efficient use and
responsible environmental management to the end of life. The object of this Part 1 is to
provide a set of requirements which are considered to be generally applicable to most types
of luminaires. Where additional performance requirements for specific types of light source
are relevant, these are specified in the IEC 62722-2 series. The IEC 62722-2 series may also
cover a wider scope of performance aspects appropriate to the particular light source
technology.
NOTE The structure of these performance standards also allows for the possibility of Part 3 standards to be
introduced in the future should standardisation of performance criteria linked to specific luminaire applications be
determined as necessary (e. g. floodlighting, street lighting, etc.).
It is the intention that the requirements of this Part 1 are to be met by the provision of
information and data provided by the luminaire manufacturer (or responsible vendor).
Conformity is considered to be met by the provision of the requested information. Any
verification of data is to be conducted by the measurement requirements of this PAS.
Semi-luminaires are not covered under the scope of this PAS. Luminaires shall be complete.
