Overview
EN 60061-1:1993/A22:1999 (CLC adoption of IEC 60061-1:1969/A22:1999) is the European/IEC standard for lamp caps - the base parts of electric lamps that engage with lamp holders. Part 1 of the IEC/EN 60061 series defines the control of interchangeability and safety for lamp caps and describes the associated gauges used to verify compliance. The standard is essential for manufacturers, test laboratories and specifiers who need to ensure lamps and holders are compatible and safe in service.
Note: The full, authoritative and updated content of the EN/IEC 60061 series is available via the IEC 60061 database (subscription required).
Key topics and requirements
The standard focuses on practical, testable requirements that support safe, consistent lamp interchangeability:
- Scope and definitions for lamp caps and related terminology to ensure consistent interpretation.
- Designation and identification principles for lamp cap types to enable correct matching with holders.
- Dimensional requirements and tolerances for lamp caps to guarantee mechanical interchangeability (measured using standard gauges).
- Gauges and measurement methods for checking conformity of lamp caps against specified dimensions.
- Safety-related considerations such as ensuring secure mechanical fit and prevention of hazardous electrical contact when mated with the corresponding holder.
- Conformity verification principles and reference to test practices used by manufacturers and laboratories.
(Exact dimensions, gauge drawings and test procedures are contained in the full standard document.)
Applications and who uses it
EN/IEC 60061-1 is used across the lighting and electrical sectors:
- Lamp and lamp cap manufacturers - design and production to standardized dimensions and markings.
- Lamp holder and luminaire designers - ensure compatibility and safety with standardized caps.
- Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies - use specified gauges and methods to certify interchangeability and safety.
- Procurement and compliance teams - specify standards-based products for installations and public procurement.
- Maintenance and facility managers - understand compatibility rules when replacing lamps.
Related standards
- The EN/IEC 60061 series (other parts address holders, gauges and safety aspects).
- National adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 60061-1) reproduce the EN/IEC text in local language and format.
