PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies performance requirements for high-pressure sodium
vapour lamps for general lighting purposes which comply with the safety requirements of
IEC 62035.
For some of the requirements given in this standard, reference is made to “the relevant lamp
data sheet’. For some lamps these data sheets are contained in this standard. For other
lamps, falling under the scope of this standard, the relevant data are supplied by the lamp
manufacturer or responsible vendor.
The requirements of this standard relate only to type testing
The requirements dealing with the lamp starting test and associated information for
ballast/ignitor design are different depending on the practice of the country in which the lamp
type was originally developed.
NOTE The requirements and tolerances permitted by this standard correspond to testing of a type test sample
submitted by the manufacturer for that purpose. In principle, this type fest sample should consist of units having
‘characteristics typical of the manufacturer's production and being as close to the production centre point values as
possible
It may be expected withthe tolerances given in the Standard that produet manutactured in aecordance with the type
tost sample will comply with the standard for the majorty of production. Duo to the production sproad nowover, itis,
inevitable that there will sometimes be products aulside the specified tolerances. For guidance an sampling plans
and procedures for inspection by attributes, see IEC 60410,

8.2 Lamp starting test
8.2.4 Lamps with external ignitor
In view of various types of ignitors in the market using essentially different methods for
ignition, a well-defined reference device” allows to determine whether a lamp is ignitable in
the sense of the standard or not. Since the device also is the basis for comparable
measurements, essential component changes are not permitted unless the responsible IEC
maintenance team has agreed the changes.
All variable starting parameters are given on the lamp data sheet and refer to either
adjustments of the device or to an implicit property thereof (e.g. waveshape), see Figure A.1
for pulse features. if the lamp data sheet requires a second pulse, during the negative half
The device can be obtained for example from Spitzonbarger * Spies, 0-04234 Viechtach, Gomnany. Brand name is LSTIS.

cycle, the shape of this second pulse is according to Figure A.2. The fixed settings of the
reference device are given in Annex F.
‘The pulse characteristics specified on the relevant lamp data sheet are measured at the
device output terminals in open circuit condition.
NOTE In USA, the refarence dovice is not used. A description of the pulse is given in Figure A.3. The starting
pulse is measured with a simulated lamp-ioad of 20 pF across the lampholder terminals,
The circuit connections for lamp starting shall be such that the pulse is applied to the lamp
through the eyelet terminal of the cap and with the shell substantially at earth potential
8.2.2 Lamps with internal starting device

9 Information for ballast and ignitor design
94 General
Ballasts and ignitors should meet the following requirements to ensure reliable starting and
operating conditions. These checks do not constitute lamp requirements.
Except where noted otherwise, these requirements should be met over the range of 92 % to
106 % of the rated voltage of the ballastaie
9.2 _ Information for ignitor design (external type)
An ignitor should start lamps which comply with the specified lamp starting test.
The ignition reference device settings on the data sheets are only for lamp start testing and
are not intended to predetermine any practical ignitor properties.
In designing an ignitor, account should be taken of pulse attenuation due to cable capacitive
loading,
9.3. Information for ballast design
9.3.4 General
The ballast specification should require the ignitor to be provided with information concerning
the maximum value of capacitance consistent with achieving the specified requirements for
lamp starting.
9.3.2 Current crest factor
The current crest factor should comply with the requirements of 9.1 of IEC 60923
9.3.3 Lamp operating limits for the information of ballast designers (see Annex C)
Each of the lamp operating sheets shows a diagram of the lamp voltage and lamp wattage
limits within which the lamp should be operated. The minimum voltage limit (left-hand side of
the diagram) is the characteristic curve of a lamp whose voltage at rated wattage is the
minimum considered acceptable.
The maximum voltage limit (right-hand side of the diagram) is the characteristic curve having
a voltage high enough to allow for a lamp with
a) maximum zero-hour voltage:
b) voltage rise during life;
©) maximum voltage rise due to enclosure in a luminaire.
The wattage limit lines (top and bottom of the diagram) are chosen with regard to the effect of
lamp wattage on performance factors such as initial light output, lumen maintenance, lamp
life, lamp warm-up ete.
The supply voltage limits for lamp operation on reactor (choke) ballasts should be as shown
below. The upper supply voltage limit should not be exceeded continuously in lamp use,
otherwise special precautions are necessary. Short-term excursions above this limit can be
tolerated
The voltage limits are:
a) for rated supply voltages between 100 V and 150 V:
= between 95 % and 105 % of rated voltage of the ballast;
b) for rated supply voltages between 220 V and 240 V.
= the lower supply voltages limit is 95 % of rated voltage of the ballast;
= the upper supply voltage limits are:
‘+ for lamp ratings below 150 W: rated voltage of the ballast +7 V
‘+ for lamp ratings 150 W and above: rated voltage of the ballast + 10 V.
The lamp wattage obtained with a reference lamp when measured on a ballast at rated
voltage, should comply with the requirements of Clause 15 of IEC 60923.
Lamp operating limits and a typical ballast characteristic are given as part of each lamp data
sheet.-12-
9.4 North American starting pulse characteristics
The ignitor may be an integral part of the ballast or a separate device. In either case it should
meet the following general requirements along with those given on the lamp data sheet.
The starting pulse application should be to the eyelet or centre lampholder terminal with the
wiring between ballast and lampholder (or its equivalent capacitance) connected
The starting pulse measurement should be at the lampholder terminals with a simulated lamp-
load of 20 pF across the terminals. The pulse height should be measured from zero voltage
level of the supply voltage. The minimum pulse repetition rate should be once per cycle for
lag circuit ballasts and once per half cycle for lead circuit ballasts.
The pulse position for lag circuit ballasts should be (1) during the time that the open-circuit
voltage exceeds 90 % of its peak and (2) no later than 20 electrical degrees beyond the
centre of the half cycle (that is, 110 degrees or 290 degrees, or both),
The pulse position for lead circuit ballasts should be (1) during the time that the open-circuit
voltage exceeds 90 % of its peak and (2) no later than 15 electrical degrees beyond the
centre of the half cycle (that is, 105 degrees and 285 degrees),
Low current off time is given on the relevant lamp data sheet.
NOTE The low current off tme Is detined by the time that the instantaneous current at ne end of each nat eycle
Is below 1,0 A. This specification 1s needed for CWA (= constant wattage autotransformer) ballasts
10 Information for luminaire design
NOTE This information rafers to the luminaire dosign checks necessary to ensure that conditions in the luminaire
do not cause premature failure of lamps complying with this standard. These checks do not constitute lamp
Fequirements
10.1 Voltage increase at lamp terminals
The lamp voltage increase as determined in accordance with the relevant procedure given in
Annex D should not exceed the value specified on the relevant lamp data sheet.
Tests should be carried out in accordance with the relevant requirements of Annex D.
10.2 Lamp envelope temperatures
The lamp envelope temperature, when measured at any point, should not exceed the
following,
— European practice
150 W or lower 310°C
above 150 W (except 600 W) 400 °C
600 Ww 480 °C (under consideration)
— North American practice
bulb type RL38 385 °C
else 400 °C
— Japanese practice
70 W and lower 385°C
above 70 W 400°C
During the measurement, the lamp should be operated at its rated wattage.
NOTE 1 These values do not apply o lamps with quartz outer bulbs.-13-
NOTE 2 The limitations in 10.2 should be regarded with caution. These ae limitations imposed by the lamp
materels, but it should be understood that, in general. i the luminaire causes a lamp to reach these temperatures,
itis probable that ihe voltage rise limitation in 10.1 wil be exceeded
11 Maximum lamp outlines
Maximum lamp outline requirements are provided for the guidance of designers of luminaires
and are based on a maximum-sized lamp inclusive of bulb to cap eccentricity, see Annex |
Observance of these requirements in luminaire design will ensure mechanical acceptance of
lamps complying with this standard
Mechanical acceptance of the lamp cap and adjoining part of the lamp neck in the holder is
ensured by compliance of the lamp with the gauges for testing contact-making as given in
IEC 60061-3,

Guidance for determining quadrilateral diagrams
C1 General
In a lighting system employing high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps, there are several variables
that affect performance. In addition to normal production variations in both lamp voltage and
ballast impedance, other factors to be accounted for are: line voltage variations, changes in
lamp characteristics with time and a luminaire effect due to the reflection of radiant energy
back to the arc tube. This dynamic system is more easily understood when presented in the
form of a lamp parameter boundary picture, which includes all variables. This boundary
picture, which is called a quadrilateral diagram, is a plot of lamp operating wattage vs. lamp
operating voltage.
This annex defines certain technical terms, describes the basis for determining the various
sides of a quadrilateral and gives an interpretation of the final diagram. It should be noted that
some quadrilateral diagrams developed earlier might not be compatible with these guidelines.
€.2 Lamp characteristic curve
An HPS lamp exhibits substantial arc voltage changes with a wattage change during life. This
can be contrasted to the mercury vapour lamp where lamp voltage remains relatively constant
when lamp wattage changes. This relationship between lamp voltage (arc voltage) and
wattage is due to the fact that the HPS arc tube contains an excess of sodium amalgam.
During lamp operation the sodium and mercury are in the liquid amalgam phase and are
located at a “cold spot” near one end of the arc tube. Only a small fraction of the sodium and
mercury is actually in the vapour phase. The vapour pressure, and therefore the lamp voltage,
depends on the cold spot temperature, which is a function of lamp wattage. The relationship
between wattage and voltage is approximately linear in the region of interest around the
nominal wattage. This nearly straight-line curve (shown in Figure C.1 which represents this
relationship) is defined as the “lamp characteristic curve
NOTE Some North American lamps have unsaturated doses of mercury and for these lamps voltage is
substantially independent of wattage and therefore does not increase over lamp life
The lamp characteristic curve for a particular lamp may be obtained by varying the wattage,
either by changing the line voltage or the ballast impedance over a range.
The point at which a lamp characteristic curve crosses the line of rated wattage defines the
“characteristic voltage” of that lamp. A “design centre” lamp is a lamp whose characteristic
voltage is equal to the specified rated voltage at lamp terminals.
A sample of lamps of the same wattage will have nearly parallel lamp characteristic curves as
shown in Figure C.2. The slopes of these curves will be less steep for lamps of progressively
higher characteristic voltages. As a lamp ages, its characteristic voltage rises.-18-

C.3 Ballast characteristic curve
When an HPS lamp operates on a ballast connected to a constant input voltage, changes in
the lamp's operating voltage and wattage follow the “ballast characteristic curve". Figure C.3
shows two typical ballast characteristic curves. These curves are obtained by measuring the
wattage and voltage of a number of lamps with different characteristic voltages or by
measuring a single lamp whose voltage is made to vary by externally causing the cold spot
temperature of the arc tube to rise.
A family of ballast characteristic curves is generated when the supply voltage is varied,
Figure C.4 shows this effect at rated supply voltage and at increased and reduced voltages.

C4 Maximum wattage limit
The top line of the quadrilateral diagram represents the maximum wattage limit of the HPS
lamp. The maximum wattage line is determined by the maximum permissible operating-19-
temperature of the arc tube. This maximum permissible wattage is defined as a value, which
‘will result in reduced life if a lamp is operated at this value for more than approximately 25 %
of the time. The maximum wattage line is usually placed approximately 20 % to 30 % above
the rated wattage.
An adgitional guideline for the location of the maximum wattage line is that it should lie above
the ballast characteristic curve produced by a reference ballast operating at an increased
voltage (for example 105 % used in North America). The allowance above the peak of this
reference ballast curve takes into account manufacturing and design tolerances for
commercial ballasts.
The actual placement of this limit line in a quadrilateral diagram is then determined after
detailed consideration of practical product requirements. Placement relative to the rated
wattage varies by lamp type because the optimum wall loading of some arc tubes may be
altered to accommodate other lamp design requirements,
C.5 Minimum wattage limit
The lower wattage limit line is set to ensure proper lamp operation in terms of:
a) Satisfactory lamp warm-up characteristics:
b) acceptable lamp operating stability;
¢) acceptable system lumen output;
d) acceptable colour rendition and uniformity.
This limit line is placed approximately 20 % to 30 % below the rated wattage and shall be
below the ballast characteristic curve of a reference ballast operating at a reduced voltage
(for example 95 % used in North America. The allowance below this reference ballast curve
takes into account manufacturing and design tolerances for commercial ballasts. The
placement of this limit line in a quadrilateral diagram in this standard is then determined after
detailed consideration of practical product requirements. Figure C.5 shows the maximum and
minimum wattage lines and their relationship to the noted reference ballast characteristic
curves,

€.6 Minimum voltage line
The minimum voltage line, the left-hand boundary of the quadrilateral, is that lamp
characteristic curve of the lamp with the minimum acceptable voltage at lamp terminals, The
agreed minimum lamp voltage for each lamp type is specified on the appropriate lamp data
sheet. It lies to the left of the rated voltage and rated wattage point and establishes the left-
hand side of the quadrilateral
The characteristic curves of ballasts are not to intersect the minimum wattage line before
crossing the minimum voltage line.
C7 Maximum voltage line
The maximum voltage line defines the right-hand side of the quadrilateral diagram. It is
determined by the following factors
a) the highest acceptable characteristic voltage of a new lamp;
b) the rise in lamp voltage that takes place during life;
©) the increase in lamp voltage resulting from enclosure in a luminaire;
d) a locus of lamp drop-out voltages that occur on a reference ballast.
The maximum characteristic voltage is derived form the locus of drop-out voltage (details are
under consideration). The drop-out characteristic voltage value is then reduced by an amount
equal to 20 % of the rated lamp voltage and is plotted back along the rated wattage line. This
termination point fixes the maximum characteristic voltage. From this point, a series of lamp
voltage measurements are made to produce the maximum lamp characteristic curve
In ballast design, the maximum lamp voltage and wattage limits are closely related. Increasing
the limit for maximum voltage necessitates an increase in the maximum wattage limit because
some types of ballast have characteristic curves that can span a greater range of voltage only
if a higher wattage is allowed
C8 Summary
€.8.1 Interpretation related to lamp and ballast
The finished diagram consists of maximum and minimum wattage lines, and minimum and
maximum voltage lines as shown in Figure C.6. The diagram can be used as a system
specification because it encompasses certain requirements for both lamp and ballast while
including a luminaire effect. The quadrilateral for each wattage system provides ballast design
information to operate lamps properly.
The final diagram is based on the operation of a lamp on a reference ballast with various
tolerances and allowances as noted in the maximum and minimum wattage clauses.
Nevertheless, the limits of lamp operation are related to underlying physical characteristics of
the lamp and, therefore, are to be interpreted as relating to all types of commercial ballasts. It
is apparent that the quadrilateral for a given system defines operational limits of any lamp
operated on any ballast.-2t-

Figure C.6 ~ Finished quadrilateral relative to the reference
ballast curves and drop-out locus
The completed quadrilateral describes qualifications for ballast design, which can be
summarised as follows.
a) The ballast characteristic curve shall intersect both the lamp voltage limit lines and remain
between the wattage limit lines throughout the life of a lamp.
b) The design of the ballast is such that under normal conditions the lamp always operates
within the quadrilateral, not only at the rated supply voltage of the ballast, but also at the
lowest and highest supply voltages for which the ballast is recommended.
NOTE Since a lag ballast is similar to a reference ballast. it cannot be expected to operate the system
satisfactorily ithe limits ofthe supply voltage varation exceed the values specified in this standard
©) A preferred ballast characteristic curve is one, which permits the lamp to attain its
maximum wattage at or before the maximum voltage line and then decreases substantially
as the lamp voltage increases beyond this point. A relatively flat ballast characteristic
curve located near the line of rated lamp wattage is preferable to one which rises and falls
relatively steeply.
4) To avoid short lamp-life, instability and premature drop-out, the ballast should be capable
of operating the lamp beyond the maximum voltage line at the right-hand side of the
quadrilateral
Although not defined by the quadrilateral, a lamp-ballast system shall also withstand an
extinguishing voltage test. In such a test, the ballast shall maintain lamp operation when the
mains voltage is suddenly dropped to 10 % below the ballast’s rated value. This requirement
is to be detailed in the lamp specification.
€.8.2 Interpretation related to luminaire design
The allowance of lamp voltage rise assigned to the luminaire effect is not readily visible on
the finished quadrilateral. The permissible voltage rise value is listed in the individual lamp
standard data sheet.=22-

HPS lamp drop-out voltage measurement procedure
E41 General and object
e
The following procedure may be used to measure drop-out voltages of high-pressure sodium
(HPS) lamps. Experience has shown that this kind of measurement is difficult to make and the
consistency of results is affected by several factors.
Speculation has been made that the wide variety of results reported in the past is due to
variations in experimental set-up and procedure. It is anticipated that the use of one common
method will permit the comparison of data from different sources. The procedure contained
herein is recommended as that common method.
‘The purpose of the subject procedure is to obtain data from lamps that will help to establish
the ‘maximum voltage’ line at the right-hand side of a quadrilateral diagram.
E.2 Theory
Operating limits of an HPS lamp are defined by a quadrilateral diagram, such as Figure E.2.
Typically, the voltage of an HPS lamp increases through life. At some point in time a critical
voltage is reached where the ballast will not be able to sustain the lamp. This voltage is called
the drop-out voltage and it is a function of both lamp and ballast operating characteristics. In
order to avoid differences in ballast operating characteristics due to design and manufacturing
variations, a reference ballast is used in this procedure to determine drop-out voltage of a test
lamp.
This procedure for measuring drop-out points involves operating a test lamp on a reference
ballast and artificially raising the lamp’s voltage until the drop-out point is reached. The lamp
voltage is related to the amalgam temperature and can be increased by raising the
temperature of the amalgam cold spot area. This heating can be accomplished by using either
an external source of radiant heat or by redirecting some of the test lamp’s radiation back
onto itself. A metal cylinder lowered over the lamp or other artificial methods provide a
convenient and controllable means of reflecting energy from the lamp back onto the arc tube
within the lamp. Clear lamps are recommended for this test work. Coated lamps diffuse this
radiant energy and complicate the experiment. Therefore, they should be avoided
In some lamp designs, a reservoir, external to the arc tube, serves as the amalgam cold spot.
In lamps without an external reservoir, one or both ends of the arc tube can serve as the cold
spot. When the end of the arc tube that has the cold spot is artificially heated, an equivalent
or greater amount of heat must be applied to the opposite end of the arc tube. This can be
accomplished artificially by placing a metal cylinder or aluminium foil over the “opposite” end
of the lamp,
As the cold spot end is heated by artificial means, the lamp’s voltage and wattage rise for the
Particular supply being used. They can be recorded as they follow the ballast curve. A drop-
out point can be obtained from these data, See Figure E.3, as an example where voltage-
wattage points were made at various supply voltages and the drop-out points identified from
the discontinuity of plot direction
E.3 Methods of arti
cial heating
£31 General
There are four commonly used methods of artificially heating the lamp's arc tube. These are
listed below in order of preference-26-
£.3.2 Metal si
The inside diameter of the metal sleeve should be only slightly larger than the outside
diameter of the test lamp. Aluminium foil can be used to cover the inside surface of the sleeve
to increase its reflectivity. An adjustable, mechanical drive to control sleeve movement is
advantageous but not absolutely necessary,
ve
After the test lamp has been started and reached its normal operation point, the sleeve is to
be positioned over the lamp from the end opposite to the cold spot. The rate of increasing
coverage of the lamp is limited by “equilibrium’ (see Clause E.4 “Description of equilibrium’).
As the expected drop-out point is approached, the coverage rate shall be slowed down.
E.3.3 Metal sleeve and projection lamp
When method in E.3.2 does not drive the test lamp to drop-out, externally generated heat
shall be applied also. An incandescent, ellipsoidal-mirror-type projection lamp should be used.
It is necessary to be able to focus the projection lamp’s light output on the test lamp’s cold
spot. The projection lamp is to be controlled by means of an adjustable autotransformer.
In this method, the metal sieeve is stopped at a position where the cold spot end is still
exposed. Then the (pre-aimed) projection lamp's output is slowly increased to heat up the
cold spot.
E.3.4 Foil and projection lamp method
A piece of pre-shaped aluminium foil is fitted over the lamp end opposite to the cold spot. The
foil should extend only about % the length of the arc tube. The lamp is started with this
shaped foil section removed, After reaching the normal lamp operating point, the foil is placed
on the lamp. After the lamp reaches another stable point, the external heat is applied to the
cold spot from the projection lamp.
£.3.5 The two projection lamp method
In this method, the output of one projection lamp is focused on the end of the arc tube
opposite the cold spot, the second lamp Is aimed at the cold spot end. After the test lamp is
started and reaches its normal operating point, the first projection lamp is turned on and its
output increased slowly. As the expected drop-out is neared, the second lamp is turned on
and its output increased slowly.
E.4 Description of equilibrium
‘The lamp voltage must be increased at a low enough rate to keep the lamp-ballast system
near “equilibrium”. If the lamp voltage is increased at too high a rate, an incorrect ballast
curve and drop-out point will be recorded (see Figure E.4),
‘Two tests can be used to determine if the lamp-ballast system is near equilibrium.
a) After the lamp voltage has been raised by an amount of § V to10 V, the cylinder position
(or external light source intensity) should be fixed and the lamp voltage-wattage
monitored, If the system is in equilibrium, the operating point will either remain constant or
will move along the ballast curve. If the voltage has been raised at too high a rate, the
lamp wattage will increase after the cylinder position is fixed and the operating point will
then move up to the true ballast curve (see Figure .5)
b) The second test is to remove the cylinder after the lamp voltage has been raised 10 V or
more. The true ballast curve will then be retraced as the lamp returns to its normal
operating voltage. If the two curves overlap, the ballast-lamp system is in equilibrium. This
is the easier of the two tests to use.
E.5 Equipment and test lamps (see also Notes 1 and 2)
Equipment is as follows:
= voltage regulator or line conditioner;-27-
- reference ballast:
— instrumentation, as necessary, to record true r.m.s. voltage and power;
— lampholder and wiring;
= aluminium foil;
cylindrical, metal sleeve (with mechanical control of position as an option);
= Tesla coil or external ignitor;
= incandescent, ellipsoidal reflector projection lamp and voltage control;
= test lamps, clear bulb, aged 100 h.
NOTE 1 Equipment
The supply voltage and trequeney should be maintained constant within 40,5 %, However, during actual
moasurements tne voltage should be adjusted to within 20,2 % of the test value. The total harmonic content of tne
supply voltage should not exceed 3%, the harmonic content being defined as the root-mean-square (c.m.5.)
‘summation of the individual harmonic components, using the fundamental a5 100 %. This implies that the suppiy
Source should have sufficient power and that the supply circult should have @ sufficiently low-impedance compared
vith the ballast impedance.
Various kinds of digital voltmeters and wattmetars with a dic analog output are commercially available, Other true
Lm.s. voltage and wattage convertors can be used provided that the output is checked for linoarity and that the
impedance limitations for HPS lamp measurements ere adhered to
‘As far as the measurement of the rise of the lamp voltage is concerned, thore is an additional requirement that the
speed of response of the measuring system snould be at least equal to the rate of change in voltage and wattage
Devices with a very long seiting time would not be sultable.
Uso of a Tesla coll to start tost lamps is the profortod method. An extomal ignitor is satisfactory, but its uso
involves special cautionary steps to avoid damage to other equipment
NOTE 2 Test lamp
New test lamps should have 100 h seasoning at normal conditions before use. Lamps with clear bulbs should be
used
‘A patticulartost lamp should not bo re-tested in a new operating position without frst going through @ re-stabilising
period
Stabilisation is determined by monitoring a lamp's electrical characteristics after 1 h of operation and at 10 min to
415 min intervals thereafter until a change of 1 % or less is observed in three successive meesurements. If lamp is
warmed up on one ballast and then transferred without extinguishing it to a reference ballast, an addtional period
of operation is usually necessary to bring the lamp into equilibrium,

E.6 Procedure
Procedure is as follows.
a) Assemble the necessary equipment and connect the components in the test circuit (see
Figure E.1),
b) Pre-set position of metal sleeve, foil, and/or projection lamp(s) as required, according to
the method of artificial heating to be used.
©) Energise the test circuit and apply nominal voltage to the reference ballast. Commence
recording and let the test lamp reach its normal operating point before introducing artificial
heating
Caution
Disconnect all instruments during starting to protect against breakdown of electronic
components due to the high voltage pulse.
If an ignitor is used, disconnect it after starting so that it does not attempt a restart after
the drop-out point. This could damage the meter.
d) Start the appropriate means of artificial heating as required. Watch for a steady rise in
lamp voltage, maintain equilibrium. If the first method does not drive the lamp voltage rise
up high enough to cause drop-out, use an alternative method.
e) After the test lamp has been allowed to cool, or using a new lamp each time, repeat step
¢) and d) for two other supply voltage settings as required in 9.3.2
E.7 Report
For each particular lamp type, three voltage-wattage drop-out points will have been
determined at the completion of the experimental procedure. There is a separate point for
each different input voltage run. These three data points should be reported so that a “locus

the voltage drop shall not exceed 2 % of the rated lamp voltage.-33-
G.4 Measurement
When measuring lamp voltage V3, the wattmeter voltage measuring circuit shall be open and
the wattmeter current measuring circuit shall be short-circuited, if necessary.
When measuring the lamp power, the lamp voltmeter V2 circuit shall be open and the ammeter
shall be short-circuited, if necessary. No correction shail be made for the power consumed by
the wattmeter as the circuit connection is made on the lamp side of the current measuring
circuit.
When measuring the luminous flux, the lamp voltmeter V» circuit and the voltage measuring
circuit of the wattmeter shall be open and the ammeter and wattmeter current measuring
circuit shall be short-circuited, if necessary.
NOTE The reference above to the ebsence of correction of the consumption of the voltage circuit of the
wattmeter arises trom an empicieal ebservation which shows that in most cases, at he same supply voltage, the
Said consumption compensates approximataly for the reduction of the powor consumption of the lamp caused by
the parallel connection of the vollage circuit of the wattmeter
In cases of doubt, it is possible to evaluate the compensation error by repeating the measurements with other
‘Values of the load in parallel with the lamp.
This is done by adding resistances in parallel with the lamp and by reading each time the power measured by the
wattmeter. Its the possible to extrapolate the results obtained in order to determine the true power in the absence
OF any peralle! load
The lamp shall be operated until the electrical characteristics are stable before any readings
on the lamp are taken

(normative)
Method of test for lumen maintenance and life
H.1 General
The luminous flux at a given time in the life of a lamp shall be measured as specified in
Annex G
During the life testing, lamps shall be operated as follows.
Lamps shall be operated in free air at an ambient temperature of between 15 °C and 50 °C.
Excessive draughts shall be avoided and the lamps shall not be subject to extreme vibration
and shock.
Lamps shall be operated in horizontal test position unless otherwise specified by the lamp
manufacturer.
NOTE North American practice is base-up unless otherwise restricted
The connections of the lamp contacts, with reference to the terminations of the ballast, shall
not be changed for the whole course of the tests. The phase of the supply and the pulse
voltage is applied to the eyelet terminal.
Lamps shall be switched off for 1 h after each 11 h of operation.
H.2 Lamps for operation on 50 Hz and 60 Hz
‘The ballast used shall comply with the requirements of IEC 60923.
NOTE 1 The choice of the type of ballasts for the tests is lef open, but the type used may have an influence on
the results of the test. I is recommended that the type of ballast employed should be stated. In case of doubt, the
use of an inductive type of ballast is recommended, because such a type has the smallest number of parameters
‘capable or affecting the results
NOTE 2. In North America, ballasts containing series capacitors are commonly used for aging lamps to determine
lumen maintenance and life
The type of ignitor to be used shall comply with the requirements of IEC 61347-2-1
NOTE 3. The choice of the type (superimposed, somi-paralol..) and brand of the ignitor for the tests is loft open,
but the type used may have an in‘luence on the results of the test. It is recommended that the type and brand of
‘he ignitor employed should be stated
During the life testing, the supply voltage and frequency shall not differ by more than 3 %
from the rated voltage and frequency of the ballast used.=35-

Maximum lamp outlines
14 Advice for use of maxi
um lamp outlines
Maximum lamp outlines are provided for the guidance of designers of luminaires and are
based on a maximum sized lamp inclusive of bulb to cap displacement.
For mechanical acceptance of lamps complying with this standard, a free space should be
provided in the luminaire based on these maximum outlines.
