Dear IECEE Member NCBs, 8 e+ l! ?/ c; Y: w6 `
7 l5 Z+ {7 z; y" i' Y5 wIt has come to our attention that CB Test Certificates have been issued to test/certify "Self Ballasted lamps with LEDs" using the IEC Standard 60968 "Self-ballasted lamps for general lighting services" ! ) c5 g6 W- g; L2 e; W0 K" {

IEC 60968 is not covering Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and therefore we wonder how the safety aspects of the light emitting diodes have been covered by using such standard. ; v. T W$ S" c- [# ^
K& t# J4 c# cIt is pointed out that TC 76 is actually developing an IEC/TR (Technical Report) IEC/TR 62471-2 Ed.1: Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems - Part 2: Guidance on manufacturing requirements relating to non-laser optical radiation safety.
% ?1 f1 U! C& h: q# r4 N# T" m$ tThis Draft, IEC/TR 62471-2, is under voting process until April 3, 2009 under the reference 76/396/DTR, which means by the end of next week. The only comments that have been provided as of today to the DTR are of editing/clarification nature. Its final publication is expected for June 2009. % g* \. d# E( @4 j7 x

If by the 3rd of April, it is confirmed that 76/396/DTR is acceptable to the IEC NCs, the IECEE CMC could be requested to immediately use such DTR whilst awaiting the publication of the IEC/TR 62471-2

Therefore, whilst awaiting the outcome of the voting of 76/396/DTR and until further notice by the IECEE Secretariat, you are not entitled to issue CB Test Certificates for Self Ballasted LED Lamps. 2 _, E6 E0 k5 q( Z: {7 a1 n

For those NCBs that might have issued CB Test Certificates for SELF-BALLASTED LED Lamps based on IEC 60968 and/or any IEC standard such as IEC 60598-1, IEC 60825-1 etc, you are requested to recall such CB Test Certificate! |
