Tehnične lastnosti svetilk - 1. del: Splošne zahteve (IEC 62722-1:2022)

ICS:   29.140.40
Ta del standarda IEC 62722 zajema posebne okoljske zahteve in zahteve glede zmogljivosti svetilk, ki vključujejo električne svetlobne vire v omrežnem napajanju do 1000 V. Razen če je drugače navedeno, veljajo podatki o delovanju, ki spadajo na področje uporabe tega dokumenta, za nove svetilke, pri katerih so bili opravljeni določeni začetni postopki staranja.
Standard IEC 62722-1 zajema zahteve za svetilke, ki do konca življenjskega cikla podpirajo energijsko učinkovito uporabo in odgovorno ravnanje z okoljem. Cilj 1. dela je zagotavljanje nabora zahtev, ki se smatrajo kot splošno veljavne za večino vrst svetilk. Dodatne zahteve za delovanje, ki so morda ustrezne za posamezno vrsto svetlobnega vira, so določene v skupini standardov IEC 62722-2. Skupina standardov IEC 62722-2 lahko tudi zajema širši nabor vidikov v zvezi z delovanjem, ki so primerni za posamezno tehnologijo svetlobnih virov.
OPOMBA: Struktura teh standardov o zmogljivosti omogoča, da se v prihodnosti vključi 3. del skupine standardov IEC 62722, če bi se kriteriji zmogljivosti, ki so povezani s posamezno uporabo svetilk, po potrebi standardizirali (npr. reflektorska osvetlitev, ulična razsvetljava).
Namen je, da se zahteve 1. dela izpolnijo s pomočjo informacij in podatkov, ki jih zagotovi proizvajalec svetilk (ali odgovorni prodajalec). Smatra se, da je za skladnost poskrbljeno, ko se zagotovijo zahtevane informacije. Vsakršno preverjanje podatkov se izvede ob upoštevanju merilnih zahtev tega dokumenta.
Polsvetilke ne spadajo na področje uporabe tega dokumenta.
Za nekatere vrste svetilk (npr. okrasne svetilke, svetilke v gospodinjstvu) zagotavljanje podatkov o zmogljivosti v okviru tega standarda morda ni ustrezno.

Overview

EN IEC 62722-1:2022 / IEC 62722-1:2022 is the international/European performance standard for luminaires - defining general requirements for the performance and environmental information that manufacturers and suppliers should provide. It applies to luminaires incorporating electric light sources intended to operate from supply voltages up to 1 000 V and addresses performance data for luminaires in a condition representative of new manufacture (after any specified initial ageing). The 2022 edition replaces the 2016 edition and was adopted by CENELEC/CLC in 2022.

Key Topics

The standard sets out measurable requirements and data presentation across several technical areas:

• Photometric data: requirements for goniophotometric distribution and measurement resolution (see Annex D).
• Electrical data: total luminaire power, standby and networked standby power, and emergency lighting charging power (measurement guidance in Annex B and reference to IEC 63103 for non‑active power).
• Luminaire efficacy data: information to support assessment of energy efficiency.
• Environmental data:
  • Materials information and instructions to support responsible environmental management.
  • Maintenance instructions and end‑of‑life dismantling guidance (pictograms in Annex C to aid user communication).
• Scope and applicability: clarifies which luminaires are covered (most types) and which are not (semi‑luminaires and, where inappropriate, some decorative/household luminaires).
• Measurement methods and tolerances: defines the basis of measurement and acceptable variation for reported data.

Applications

EN IEC 62722-1:2022 is practical for:

• Lighting manufacturers and product engineers preparing technical datasheets, type‑tests, and compliance documentation.
• Test laboratories and certification bodies performing photometric, electrical and environmental measurements.
• Lighting designers, specifiers and procurement teams verifying product performance, energy efficiency and end‑of‑life information.
• Compliance and sustainability officers ensuring products meet regional/regulatory requirements and responsible environmental management expectations.

Use cases include producing standardized product information for tenders, comparing luminaire efficacy across suppliers, documenting standby and emergency power characteristics, and communicating maintenance/end‑of‑life instructions.

Related standards

• IEC 62722-2 series - particular requirements for specific light‑source technologies (e.g., LED luminaires).
• IEC 60598-1 - general luminaire requirements and tests.
• IEC 63103 - measurement methods for non‑active mode power.
• Regional or national standards referenced by CENELEC/CLC for harmonized implementation.

Keywords: EN IEC 62722-1:2022, luminaire performance, photometric distribution, luminaire efficacy data, luminaire power, environmental data, end of life, IEC 62722.

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

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 62722 is a performance standard for luminaires (general requirements) and
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 can be reasonably
expected. Information to support responsible environmental use is also included. Future Parts 2
of the IEC 62722 series can be introduced where additional performance requirements for
specific types of light sources are required. The structure of these performance standards also
allows for the possibility of Part 3 of the IEC 62722 series to be introduced in the future should
standardization of performance criteria linked to specific luminaire applications be determined
as necessary (e.g. floodlighting, street lighting).
