14 Foreword
15 This document (EN 62115:2005/prAD:2014) has been prepared by CLC/TC 61 "Safety of household and
16 similar electrical appliances".
17 This document is currently submitted to the Enquiry.
18 This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission
19 and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
20 For the relationship with EU Directive 2009/48/EC, see informative Annexes ZZA and ZZB, which are an
21 integral part of this document.
22 Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in IEC 62115:2003 +
23 A1:2004+ A2:2010 are prefixed “Z”.
24 NOTE The following print types are used:
25 – requirements: in roman type;
26 – test specifications: in italic type;
27 – notes: in small roman type.
28 Words in bold in the text are defined in Clause 3. When a definition concerns an adjective, the adjective and the

30 CLC/TC 61 note:
31 This prAD (future A13) is submitted to the CENELEC Enquiry as agreed during the CLC/TC 61 meetings
32 in Brussels in 2013.
33 This document was updated following the discussions of CLC/TC 61/WG 7 “Toys” at its last joint meeting
34 the MT 26 in Guangzhou China.
35 During the preparation of this draft by CLC/TC 61/WG 7 “Toys”, a coordination with IEC has been
36 performed. Therefore, the technical content of this CENELEC draft is identical to the technical content of
37 a Draft for Comments (DC) of IEC on the same standard (61/4716/DC).
38 For achieving this, the following changes have been introduced, with respect to a previous version of this
39 prAD (future A13) inside CLC/TC 61/WG 7:
40 – Although it is specified in 5.5, 5.6 and Clause 9 of the main part of the toy standard that all the tests
41 are carried out in the worst mode, position etc., it is in addition specified in 5.6 that this is also
42 applicable to the radiation.
43 – Emission measurement accuracy and distance is added in 20.X2.1 as it was explained in the first
44 version of prAD (future A13) in 20.1.1.1 and the editor’s note in 20.1.5.
45 – Measurement details in the subclauses of 20.Z2 is referred to the general 20.Z2.1.
46 – The classification of lasers in 20.Z3 are now referred to the latest IEC 60825-13 instead the older
47 IEC 60825-1"

142 The total emission from toys incorporating LEDs or an array of LEDs shall not exceed the AEL
143 specified in Clauses 20.E.2.2, 20.E.2.3 and 20.E.2.4.
144 Note 1: The total emission only incorporates the emissions that the eye is exposed to from one viewing position. Any
145 emissions that cannot be viewed simultaneously shall be assessed separately and independently.
146 Compliance is checked by evaluating the technical data of LEDs and applying the limits of
147 clauses 20.E.2.2, 20.E.2.3 and 20.E.2.4 or by measurement of the output from a toy and
148 application of the same limits, using the following method.
149 Toys are operated as intended until steady state conditions and normal operating temperature is
150 reached.
151 The spectral emission bandwidth is measured by using a spectrometer capable of measuring
152 to an accuracy of ± 1 nm
-1
153 The accessible emission is measured to an accuracy of ± 0,001 Wsr or by any device with a
154 photopic luminous efficiency not exceeding 3% across the measured spectrum. The
155 measurements are made at a distance of 10 mm.
156 Note 2: A product meeting the exempt risk group criteria of EN 62471 shall also meet the requirements of this
157 standard.

169 age and, 1 for toys intended for children of 3 years of age and above.
170 Note 1: Relaxation Factor A depends on the peak emission wavelength λ and spectral emission bandwidth ∆λ. See

182 appropriate AEL or by measurement using the methods specified in 20.E.2.1.
183 20.E.2.3 Visible light AEL
184 The output of visible optical radiation with a wavelength between 400 nm and 780 nm from LEDs

191 peak wavelength is assumed to be for the shortest-wavelength emitted.
192 – Where output of the LED is expressed in candela, it shall not exceed the AEL values given in
193 Table E.2.
194 – Where the output of the LED is expressed in watts per steradian, it shall not exceed the AEL

207 nm and, 1.0 for LEDs emitting in the spectral range 1000-3000 nm. The values are given below:
-1

-1
209 – For a peak emission wavelength of 1000-3000 nm, an AEL of 0.32 W.sr
210 Compliance is checked by comparing values from the component data sheets with the
211 appropriate AEL or by measurement.

250 Examples of calculations on LEDs
251 This annex presents examples of calculations on LEDs
252 ZE.1 Green LED
253 An example of calculation for a green LED is provided in this clause.
Data sheet information:
Luminous intensity: 3200 mcd
Peak emission wavelength: 520 nm
Spectral emission bandwidth: 20 nm
Half-power beam angle (HWHM angle): ±30 degrees
254 – There is no emission below 420 nm: the UVA AEL is not applicable and only the visible light
255 AEL should be considered;
256 – The visible light AEL from Figure ZE.1 for 520 nm peak emission and 20 nm spectral
257 emission bandwidth is 38.4 cd.
258 Therefore, the visible light AEL for this LED is 38.4 cd, which is >> 3.2 cd (3200 mcd), and the
259 LED is safe to use as a single component.
260 ZE.2 Narrow angle blue LED
261 An example of calculation for a narrow angle blue LED is provided in this clause.
Data sheet information:
Luminous intensity: 3000 mcd
Peak emission wavelength: 460 nm
Spectral emission bandwidth: 30 nm
Half-power beam angle (HWHM angle): ±10 deg
