Overview

SIST EN 60630:2001/A7:2015 is a European standard developed by CLC, detailing the maximum lamp outlines for incandescent lamps, including tungsten-halogen types. This standard establishes precise mechanical dimensions to ensure compatibility and interchangeability of incandescent lamps across different manufacturers and applications. By adhering to these maximum lamp outlines, products can achieve mechanical acceptance in luminaire designs, promoting uniformity and safety within the lighting industry.

Key Topics

• Scope and Application
  The standard applies to incandescent lamps, covering typical wattages such as 25W, 40W, 60W, 75W, and 100W. It explicitly includes tungsten-halogen lamps and specifies details such as bulb diameter and overall length limits.

• Normative References
  EN 60630:A7 references several critical IEC standards vital for lamp design and interoperability:

  • IEC 60061-1/3: Lamp caps, holders, and gauges
  • IEC 60064: Tungsten filament lamp performance requirements
  • IEC 60357: Non-vehicle tungsten-halogen lamps specification
  • IEC 60432 series: Safety specifications for incandescent lamps
  • IEC 60887: Glass bulb designation system
  • IEC 61126: Procedure for establishing lamp outlines

• Maximum Lamp Outlines
  Detailed dimensional limits for lamp bulbs, such as maximum bulb diameter and overall length, are specified by lamp type and cap designation (B22, E27, E14, E39, etc.). These limit shapes ensure that lamps fit within the mechanical constraints of fixtures designed per international standards.

• Mechanical Compatibility
  Compliance with EN 60630 guarantees mechanical acceptance of lamps within luminaire designs conforming to the relevant standards. Although temperature and electrical performance parameters are outside the scope of this standard, cross-references are provided for respective safety and performance standards.

• Data Sheets and Numbering System
  The standard categorizes lamps into groups by wattage and cap types through a systematic numbering of data sheets (e.g., 60630-IEC-1010-6). This approach facilitates easy identification and consistent documentation of product outlines.

Applications

SIST EN 60630:2001/A7:2015 plays an essential role in:

• Lighting Fixture Design
  Designers and manufacturers use this standard to ensure that luminaires accommodate incandescent lamps safely and effectively without mechanical interference.

• Lamp Manufacturing
  Lamp producers apply the defined maximum outlines to maintain compatibility with existing fixtures and ensure market acceptance.

• Quality Control and Interchangeability Testing
  The standard provides reference dimensions used during quality inspections to verify lamp conformity to mechanical limits.

• Safety and Regulatory Compliance
  Although mechanical outlines are the primary focus, EN 60630 references safety standards ensuring that lamps designed within outlined dimensions meet electromechanical safety criteria.

• International Trade and Harmonization
  Adoption across CENELEC member countries promotes uniform product specifications, facilitating export-import processes and reducing technical barriers to trade in lighting products.

Related Standards

To fully implement and comply with SIST EN 60630:2001/A7:2015, practitioners should consult the following key related standards:

• IEC 60061-1 & IEC 60061-3 - Lamp caps and holders and control gauges ensure interchangeability and safety of lamp bases
• IEC 60064 - Performance requirements for tungsten filament lamps for general lighting
• IEC 60357 - Specifies performance for tungsten halogen lamps excluding vehicle applications
• IEC 60432 (Parts 1, 2, and 3) - Defines safety specifications for incandescent and tungsten halogen lamps
• IEC 60887 - Provides the designation system for glass bulb shapes
• IEC 61126 - Details the procedure for creating maximum lamp outlines drawings

These complementary standards cover performance, safety, designation, and testing protocols critical for the correct application of mechanical outlines and overall lamp design.

---

By implementing SIST EN 60630:2001/A7:2015, stakeholders in the lighting industry achieve critical standardization in lamp dimensions, thus ensuring compatibility, safety, and marketability of incandescent lamps and associated luminaires across Europe and globally.
