Lamp controlgear - Part 2-13: Particular requirements for d.c. or a.c. supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules

This part of IEC 61347 specifies particular safety requirements for electronic controlgear for
use on d.c. or a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V (a.c. at 50 Hz or 60 Hz) and at an output frequency
which can deviate from the supply frequency, associated with LED modules.
Controlgear for LED modules specified in this standard are designed to provide constant
voltage or current at SELV or higher voltages. Deviations from the pure voltage and current
types do not exclude the gear from this standard.
The annexes of IEC 61347-1 which are applicable according to this Part 2-13 and using the
word “lamp” are understood to also comprise LED modules.
Particular requirements for SELV controlgear are given in Annex I.
Performance requirements are covered by IEC 62384.
Plug-in controlgear, being part of the luminaire, are covered as for built-in controlgear by the
additional requirements of the luminaire standard.

Appareillages de lampes - Partie 2-13: Exigences particulières pour les appareillages électroniques alimentés en courant continu ou en courant alternatif pour modules de LED

L'IEC 61347-2-13:2014 spécifie les exigences particulières de sécurité pour les appareillages électroniques pour l'utilisation sur des alimentations en courant continu ou en courant alternatif jusqu'à 1 000 V (en courant alternatif à 50 Hz ou 60 Hz) et avec une fréquence de sortie qui peut être différente de la fréquence d'alimentation, en association avec des modules de LED. Les appareillages pour les modules de LED spécifiés dans cette norme sont conçus pour fournir une tension ou un courant constant à une tension correspondant à une TBTS ou à des tensions supérieures. Des déviations par rapport aux types de tension et courant purs n'excluent pas l'appareillage de la présente norme. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2006. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente.
a) Remplacement des exigences relatives aux équivalents TBTS par des exigences relatives aux TBTS et référence aux exigences relatives aux TBTS de l'Annexe L de l'IEC 61347 1:2007/AMD2:2012.
b) Référence à l'IEC 61347-1 en ce qui concerne la protection contre le contact accidentel avec des parties actives, la résistance à l'humidité et l'isolement et la rigidité diélectrique.
c) Nouvelle Annexe J relative aux exigences s'appliquant aux éclairages de secours.

Krmilne stikalne naprave za sijalke - 2-13. del: Posebne zahteve za enosmerno ali izmenično napajane elektronske krmilne stikalne naprave za module LED (IEC 61347-2-13:2014)

Ta del standarda IEC 61347 določa posebne varnostne zahteve za elektronske krmilne stikalne naprave za uporabo pri enosmernem ali izmeničnem napajanju do 1000 V (izmenično pri 50 Hz ali 60 Hz) in pri izhodni frekvenci, ki lahko odstopa od napajalne frekvence, povezane z moduli LED. Krmilne stikalne naprave za module LED iz tega standarda so namenjene zagotavljanju konstantne napetosti ali toka pri SELV ali višjih napetostih. Odstopanja od tipov čiste napetosti in toka ne izključujejo naprav iz tega standarda.
Dodatki k standardu IEC 61347-1, ki se uporabljajo v skladu z 2. do 13. delom in uporabljajo besedo »sijalka«, naj bi prav tako zajemali module LED.
Posebne zahteve za krmilne stikalne naprave SELV so podane v dodatku I.
Zahteve glede zmogljivosti so obravnavane v standardu IEC 62384.
Vtične krmilne stikalne naprave, ki so del svetilke, so kot vgrajene krmilne stikalne naprave zajete v dodatnih zahtevah standarda za svetilke.

LAMP CONTROLGEAR –

Part 2-13: Particular requirements for d.c. or
a.c. supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules

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 IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61347-2-13 has been prepared by subcommittee 34C: Auxiliaries
for lamps, of IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition.
a) Replacement of the SELV-equivalent requirements by SELV requirements and reference
to the SELV requirements of Annex L in IEC 61347-1:2007/AMD2:2012.
b) Reference to IEC 61347-1 for the protection against accidental contact with live parts,
moisture resistance and insulation and electric strength.
c) New Annex J for emergency lighting requirements.

3.9
LED module
light source having no cap, incorporating one or more LED package(s) on a printed circuit
board, and possibly including one or more of the following:
electrical, optical, mechanical, and thermal components, interfaces and controlgear
Note 1 to entry: A LED module may be integrated (LEDi module, Type 1) or semi-integrated (LEDsi module,
Type 2) or nonintegrated (LEDni module, Type 3).
Note 2 to entry: The LED module is usually designed to be part of a LED lamp or LED luminaire.
3.10
maximum output voltage
maximum voltage which can occur between the output terminals for constant current
controlgear in any load condition
3.11
emergency lighting
lighting provided for use when the supply to the normal lighting fails; it includes escape
lighting and standby lighting
3.12
rated emergency supply voltage or voltage range
rated voltage or voltage range claimed by the manufacturer where the controlgear will operate
according specification
3.13
emergency output factor
EOF
x
ratio of the electrical output parameter when the control gear under test is operated in
emergency mode to the output electrical parameter when the control gear is operated with the
normal lighting conditions
Note 1 to entry: The electrical output parameter can be current (EOF ), voltage (EOF ) or power (EOF ) at the
I V W
output(s) of the control gear (depending on the module it could be constant current, constant voltage or constant
power).
Note 2 to entry: The emergency output factor is the minimum of the values measured at the appropriate time after
failure of the normal supply and continuously.
3.14
emergency supply current
rated supply current of the control gear operating in the emergency mode
4 General requirements
The requirements of Clause 4 of IEC 61347-1:2007/AMD2:2012 apply, together with the
following additional requirements.
– Controlgear providing SELV shall comply with the requirements of Annex I. This includes
insulation resistance, electric strength, creepage distances and clearance between
primary and secondary circuits.
– If a separating, isolating or autotransformer is used, it shall comply with the relevant parts
of IEC 61558. If, however, insulated winding wires are used for controlgear with an input
voltage of up to 300 V, the dielectric strength test voltage is limited to 3 kV for raw
material.
