1 Scope
Add, at the beginning of the second existing list, the following new item:
– auxiliaries intended to be built into lighting equipment;

Replace the last existing item of the list and the existing note by the following new text:
– apparatus for which the electromagnetic compatibility requirements in the radio-frequency
range are explicitly formulated in other CISPR standards, even if they incorporate a built-
in lighting function.
NOTE 1 Examples of exclusions are:
– built-in lighting devices for display back lighting and signalling;
– range hoods, refrigerators, freezers;
– photocopiers, projectors;
– lighting equipment for road vehicles.

Add, after the fourth existing paragraph of this subclause starting with "Multi-function
equipment.", the following new paragraph and new note:
For equipment outside the scope of this standard and which includes lighting as a secondary
function, there is no need to separately assess the lighting function against this standard,
provided that the lighting function was operative during the assessment in accordance with
the applicable standard.
NOTE 2 Examples of equipment with a secondary lighting function may be range hoods, fans, refrigerators,
freezers, ovens and TV with ambient lighting.

2 Normative references

3.7
passive circuit
electronic circuit not containing any active switching electronic components
Note 1 to entry: A passive circuit is not likely to produce any electromagnetic disturbances. E.g. a mains rectifying
diode is considered a passive component.

the manufacturer
3.9
primary function

 At the transition frequency, the lower limit applies.

b
Either of the two measurement distances and the associated limits can be applied to demonstrate
compliance.

c
Care should be taken when measuring a large EUT at 3 m and at frequencies near 30 MHz due to near field
effects.

5.1 General
Replace the second existing paragraph of this subclause by the following new paragraph:
No emission requirements apply to:
• lamps, with the exception of self-ballasted lamps, double-capped self-ballasted lamps and
ELV lamps,
• auxiliaries to be built into lighting equipment (see, however, NOTE 2 of 5.3.1 in this
respect).

5.3.3.3 Independent convertors
Replace the existing text of this subclause by the following new text:
Independent electronic convertors for incandescent lamps or LED light sources shall comply
with the terminal voltage limits given in Tables 2a and 2b; and with the radiated disturbance
limits of Table 3b, and if the light is regulated by an external device with separate control
lines, the disturbance voltage at the control terminals shall comply with the terminal voltage
limits given in Table 2c.
Where the convertor has a non-detachable load supply cable, or where the manufacturer
gives strict installation instructions which define the position, type and maximum length of
cable(s) to be connected to the lamp(s), then (under these conditions) instead of the terminal
voltage limits given in Table 2b, the radiated disturbance limits given in Tables 3a shall be
complied with.

5.3.5 Semi-luminaires
Replace in the first existing paragraph of this subclause “with an Edison screw or bayonet
cap” by “with an IEC 60061-1 standardized lamp cap".

5.4 Self-ballasted lamps
Replace in the first existing paragraph of this subclause “with Edison screw or bayonet caps”
by “with IEC 60061-1 standardized lamp caps".

Add, at the end of the existing Subclause 5.11, the following new subclauses:
5.12 Rope lights
5.12.1 General
Rope lights (e.g. Christmas lights, lighting chains), are used for different applications both
indoor and outdoor in the areas of general and effect lighting. Depending upon the application
and construction, different light sources may be applied e.g. incandescent lamps or LED
lamps. The control gear for rope lights may be independent or integrated. Also rope lights
without control gear are feasible.
5.12.2 Rope lights without active switching electronic components
Rope lights without active switching electronic components are deemed to comply with the
disturbance requirements of this standard without testing.
5.12.3 Rope lights with active switching electronic components
Rope lights with active switching electronic components shall comply with the disturbance
voltage limits at mains terminals given in Table 2a. Where the operating frequency of the
active switching electronic components exceeds 100 Hz, the EUT shall also comply with the
radiated disturbance limits given in Table 3a and Table 3b.
If the rope light is capable of being used in different operating modes e.g. flashing, running
illumination, colour shifting etc., then measurements shall be performed in the worst case
mode of operation. The worst case shall be found by prescanning every mode of operation
over at least one repetition interval of the specific mode.
5.13 Double-capped lamp adapters, double-capped self-ballasted lamps, double-
capped semi-luminaires and double-capped retrofit lamps
Requirements and test methods for double-capped lamp adapters, double-capped self-
ballasted lamps, double-capped semi-luminaires and double-capped retrofit lamps used in
luminaires for linear fluorescent lamps are specified in Annex E.
5.14 Extra-low voltage lamps
ELV lamps shall comply with one of the following requirements:
a) Extra-low voltage (ELV) lamps without active circuit, as declared by the manufacturer, are
deemed to comply with the requirements of this standard without testing.
b) Extra-low voltage (ELV) lamps with active circuit, intended for connection to symmetrical
ELV networks, shall comply with the mains disturbance voltage limits of Table 2a plus 26
dB at the ELV terminals, measured in accordance with the method specified in 8.11, and
with the radiated disturbance limits of Tables 3a and 3b, measured in accordance with the
method specified in 9.10.
NOTE 1 The insertion loss of the applied control gear is assumed to be 26 dB based on measurements on
real configurations.
NOTE 2 Special care is taken that no overloading of the receiver occurs.
NOTE 3 The 26 dB addition shall not be applied to the assessment of radiated disturbances

c) Restricted ELV lamps with active circuit shall comply with the mains disturbance voltage
limits of Table 2a, measured in accordance with the method specified in 8.11, and with the
radiated disturbance limits of Tables 3a and 3b, measured in accordance with the method
specified in 9.10.
NOTE 4 ELV lamps with active circuit are not intended for the connection to unsymmetrical ELV networks.

8.1.1 Mains terminal voltage measurement
Replace the first existing paragraph of this subclause by the following new paragraph:
The disturbance voltage shall be measured at the mains terminals of the lighting equipment
by means of the circuits and arrangements described in Figures 5, 6 and 8 for the relevant
type of equipment.
Replace, in the second existing paragraph of this subclause, "20 %" by "0,05 m".
Add, after the second paragraph of this subclause, the following new paragraph:
In case there is a conflict between the distances indicated in Figure 5 to Figure 11 and the
cable length specified in this paragraph, then the cable length takes precedence.
8.2 Indoor and outdoor luminaires
Replace the first existing paragraph of this subclause by the following new paragraph:
The measuring circuit is given in Figure 6a and the measurement arrangements in Figure 8.
Replace the fifth existing paragraph of this subclause by the following new text:
One of the following three options for the arrangement of the luminaire can be used:
a) The luminaire shall be placed on an insulating table, such that the base of the luminaire
(the opposite side of the optical window) is on the insulating table at 0,4 m from a
horizontal reference ground plane and the light output (optical window) is directed
upwards. See Figure 8a;
b) As a) but rotated 90° around the main axis of the luminaire, the light output directed
horizontally away from the reference ground plane. See Figure 8b;
c) The luminaire shall be placed on an insulating table, such that the base of the luminaire is
on the insulating table at least 0,
