Controlgear for electric light sources – Safety. Part 2-3: Particular requirements – AC or DC supplied electronic controlgear for fluorescent lamps | Status: Current

1 Scope This part of IEC 61347 specifies safety requirements for electronic controlgear for use on AC supplies at 50 Hz or 60 Hz up to 1 000 V or on DC supplies up to 1 000 V with lamp operating frequencies deviating from the supply frequency, associated with fluorescent lamps as specified in IEC 60081 and IEC 60901, low-pressure UV lamps, and other fluorescent lamps for high-frequency operation.

NOTE 1 Requirements for centrally supplied controlgear for emergency lighting are given in Annex B. This also includes performance requirements as far as they are considered to be safety-related with respect to reliable emergency operation.

NOTE 2 Requirements for emergency lighting controlgear operating from non-centralised power supplies are given in IEC 61347‑2‑7.

NOTE 3 Performance requirements are the subject of IEC 60929.
