AMENDMENT 2

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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 2 to IEC 61347-2-7:2011 has been prepared by subcommittee 34C: Auxiliaries for
lamps, of IEC technical committee 34: Lighting.
The text of this Amendment is based on the following documents:
Draft Report on voting
34C/1536/FDIS 34C/1540/RVD

Full information on the voting for its approval can be found in the report on voting indicated in

Title of Part 2-7
In the existing title, replace "battery" with "electric source for safety services (ESSS)" as follows:
Part 2-7: Particular requirements for electric source for safety services (ESSS) supplied
electronic controlgear for emergency lighting (self-contained)

Introduction to Amendment 2
The following significant technical changes have been introduced in this Amendment 2:
a) clarification of rest mode and inhibiting mode requirements;
b) introduction of requirements for controlgear using lithium batteries;
c) introduction of requirements for controlgear using electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs);
d) introduction of the term "electric source for safety services (ESSS)" to cover both batteries
and EDLCs;
e) clarification of changeover operation requirements.


1 Scope
Replace the text of the Scope, modified by Amendment 1, with the following new text:
This part of IEC 61347 specifies particular safety requirements for electric source for safety
services (ESSS) supplied electronic controlgear for maintained and non-maintained emergency
lighting purposes.
It includes specific requirements for electronic controlgear and control units for self-contained
luminaires for emergency lighting as specified in IEC 60598-2-22.
It is intended for controlgear for fluorescent lamps and other lamp types for example

This document covers the emergency mode operation of a controlgear. For controlgear with a
combination of normal and emergency lighting operation, the normal lighting operation aspects
are covered by the appropriate Part 2 of the IEC 61347 series.
DC supplied electronic controlgear for emergency lighting can (or not) include the electric
source for safety services (ESSS).
This document does not apply to d.c. supplied electronic controlgear for emergency lighting,
which are intended for connection to a centralized emergency power supply system. A
centralized emergency power system could be a central battery system.
NOTE Annex J of IEC 61347-2-3:2011/AMD1:2016 applies to a.c., a.c./d.c. or d.c. supplied electronic controlgear
for connection to centralized emergency power supply systems that are also intended for emergency lighting
operations from a.c./d.c. supplies.

Compliance is checked by the following test set-up:
For compliance measurements of EOF the controlgear shall be operated with a load producing

the maximum and the minimum of the output voltage range (or power).
Electronic controlgear provided with or without ESSSs:
For the measurement of I and EOF voltages representative of a fully charged battery
emergency I
and the battery voltage present just before the lamp extinguishes are used as follows:
V – Full charge battery voltage per cell dependent on battery type as follows:
1
NiCd 1,35 V per cell;
NiMH 1,35 V per cell;
Pb 2,10 V per cell;
Li(NiCoMn)O 4,0 V;
2
LiFePO 3,65 V
4
LTO 2,80 V;
(values given by default and can be different depending on the battery manufacturer's
declaration of design).
EDLC – Full charge EDLC voltage measured after full charge;
V – End of capacity battery voltage per cell dependent on battery type as follows:
min
NiCd 1,10 V;
NiMH 1,10 V;
Pb 1,80 V;
3,1 V;
Li(NiCoMn)O
2
LiFePO 2,00 V;
4
LTO 1,65 V.
(values given by default and can be different depending on the battery manufacturer's
declaration of design).
EDLC – the lowest value measured at the end of emergency operation immediately before the
light source extinguishes.
Where the controlgear cut off voltage is above these voltages, the cut off voltage becomes V .
min
Measurement of I shall be made at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. The first
emergency
measurement of the output current is made at V at 5 s and at 60 s after the application of the
1
d.c. voltage.
The second measurement of the output current is made at V .
min
The lower of the current measured at 60 s and V or V shall be retained as I and
1 min emergency
shall reach at least the declared value for I and EOF when compared with the output
emergency I
current (I ) of the controlgear measured under normal conditions with the same load.

21 Changeover operation
Insert, between the existing first and second paragraphs of Clause 21, modified by
Amendment 1, the following new paragraphs:
In the case of a rated supply voltage range, then changeover from normal to emergency mode
shall occur at not less than 0,6 times the maximum of the rated supply voltage range. It shall
not occur at greater than 0,85 times the minimum of the rated supply voltage range.
Controlgear with a selectable input voltage should be tested for changeover operation at each
voltage setting.
In NOTE 1, replace "batteries" with "ESSSs" and "may" with "can".
In the first sentence of the last existing paragraph, modified by Amendment 1, replace "rated
supply voltage" with "minimum rated supply voltage".
Replace the existing NOTE 2 with the following new NOTE 2:
NOTE 2 In Japan, changeover from normal to emergency mode at not less than 0,4 times the rated supply voltage
is accepted. In the case of universal controlgear without a selectable input voltage, changeover from normal to
emergency mode at not less than 0,4 times the minimum of the supply voltage range is accepted.
22 Recharging device
Replace the existing Clause 22, modified by Amendment 1, with the following new Clause 22:
The recharging device, if provided, shall provide the rated charge performance as declared by
the controlgear manufacturer to charge the ESSS within 24 h
