7.1 Mandatory markings
Add, at the end of the list, a new dashed item as follows:
– The manufacturer shall declare the allowable maximum case temperature under normal
condition (A) and, for ignitors which are intended to be connected in series with discharge
lamps which could, according to the lamp specification cause rectification, the maximum
case temperature under abnormal condition (B). The marking shall be “t A/B” (example
c

Independent starting devices shall not exceed the temperature values for abnormal operation
given in 15.3.3.
15 Heating of independent starting devices
Replace the title and text of clause 15 and the changes made to it by Amendment 1 with the
following:
15 Heating of built-in and independent starting devices
15.1 General
Built-in and independent starting devices shall not exceed the temperature limits during
normal operation (t ) and abnormal operation (t + X).
c c
In addition to the requirements of this clause of IEC 61347-2-1 for built-in starting devices the
normal and the abnormal operating condition are checked together with the luminaire in
accordance with IEC 60598-1.
15.2 Normal operation
15.2.1 General
Normal conditions are working conditions in which one or more of the following situations
apply:
a) lamps are operating normally;
b) rated current flows through the starting device;
c) the starting device has been connected to a voltage source, for example, the mains
voltage or the lamp voltage arising during normal operation;
d) combination of b) and c).
15.2.2 Normal operation of built-in starting devices
Compliance of built-in starting device in normal operation is checked by the following
procedure.
The starting devices are connected as for normal use with appropriate lamps.
The built-in starting device shall be placed in a test enclosure as detailed in annex D of
IEC 61347-1, the starting device being supported by two wooden blocks as shown in
figure H.1 of IEC 61347-1.
– 4 – 61347-2-1 Amend.2 © IEC:2013
The wooden blocks shall be 75 mm high, 10 mm thick and of a width equal to, or greater than,
the width of the starting device. Furthermore, the blocks shall be positioned with the extreme
end of the starting device aligned with the outer vertical sides of the block.
The controlgear employed for the components shall meet the requirements of the relevant IEC
standard and be compatible with the lamp type to be started by the starting device.
The whole test circuit (controlgear, built-in starting device and the lamp(s)) is connected to
the supply voltage. When the lamp is in stable operation, the lamp current is set for rated
value by modifying the voltage applied. The ambient temperature of the test enclosure is
adjusted to reach t on the starting device. In this condition, the starting devices and lamp are
c
operated until they reach steady temperature.
Compliance is checked by the temperature measurement. The measured value shall not
exceed limits specified in tables 12.1 and 12.2 of IEC 60598-1.
15.2.3 Normal operation of independent starting devices
Compliance of independent starting device in normal operation is checked by the following
procedure.
Independent starting devices are connected as for normal use with appropriate lamps.
Independent starting devices are mounted in a test corner consisting of three dull black
painted laminated wood boards 15 mm to 25 mm thick and arranged so as to resemble two
walls and the ceiling of a room. The starting device is secured to the ceiling as close as
possible to the walls, the ceiling extending at least 250 mm beyond the other sides of the
starting device. This assembly is positioned as far as possible from the five internal surfaces
of the enclosure.
The tests are carried out in a draught-proof room or enclosure as specified in annex F. The
ambient temperature within the draught-proof enclosure shall be within 5 °C of the t rating
a
and should preferably be the same as the t rating.
a
The controlgear employed for the components shall meet the requirements of the relevant IEC
standard and be compatible with the lamp type to be started by the starting device.
The whole test circuit (controlgear, independent starting device and the lamp(s)) is connected
to the supply voltage. When the lamp is in stable operation, the lamp current is set for the
rated value by modifying the voltage applied. In this condition, the starting device and lamps
are operated until they reach steady temperature.
Compliance is checked by the temperature measurement. The measured value shall not
exceed limits specified in tables 12.1 and 12.2 of IEC 60598-1.
15.3 Abnormal operation
15.3.1 Abnormal operation of built-in ignitors
Compliance of built-in starting device in abnormal operation is checked by the following test
procedure:
The test is required for built-in starting devices (built-in ignitors) intended to be connected in
series with discharge lamps which could, according to the lamp specification cause
rectification and are tested additionally with rectifying test circuit in accordance with 12.5 and
annex C of IEC 60598-1.
61347-2-1 Amend.2 © IEC:2013 – 5 –
The built-in starting device shall be placed in a test enclosure as detailed in annex D of
IEC 61347-1, the starting device being supported by two wooden blocks as shown in
figure H.1 of IEC 61347-1.
The wooden blocks shall be 75 mm high, 10 mm thick and of a width equal to, or greater than,
the width of the starting device. Furthermore, the blocks shall be positioned with the extreme
end of the starting device aligned with the outer vertical sides of the block.
For the test the built-in starting device is operated in the test enclosure described above for
30 minutes during which the double value of the rated current flows through the built-in
starting device. Built-in starting devices, which are intended for the use of different lamps, the
highest value of the current, shall be used.
The ambient temperature in the test enclosure is set to achieve at the end of the test
(t + X) °C for which built-in starting device is specified. If during the test the value of
c
(t + X) °C is not reached, then the test shall be repeated on another sample at an increased
c
ambient temperature at which (t + X) °C is achieved.
c
Compliance is checked by the following parameters:
After the test, the temperature of the components is determined:
a) temperatures shall not exceed the values specified in table 12.3 of IEC 60598-1.
After cooling down, the starting device shall comply with the following conditions:
b) the starting device marking shall still be legible;
c) the pulse voltage must not differ by more than ± 10 % from the initially measured value;
d) the starting device shall withstand without damage an electric strength test according to
clause 12 of this standard, the test voltage, however, being reduced to 75 % of the values
given in table 1 of IEC 61347-1, but not less than 500 V.
30 min is the medium time required for a controlgear incorporated into a luminaire to heat up
and cause the operation of the thermal control device during rectifying effect.
