AC and/or DC-supplied electronic control
gear for tubular fluorescent lamps -
Performance requirements
(Second revision)
(IEC 60929:2011, AMD.1:2015, IDT)
This international Standard specifies performance requirements for electronic control gear for
use on a.c. at 50 Hz or 60 Hz and/or d.c. supplies, both up to 1 000 V, with operating
frequencies deviating from the supply frequency, associated with fluorescent lamps as
specified in IEC 60081 and IEC 60901, and other fluorescent lamps for high-frequency
operation.
NOTE 1 Tests in this standard are type tests. Requirements for testing individual control gear during production
are not included.
NOTE 2 There are regional standards regarding the regulation of mains current harmonics and immunity for endproducts
like luminaires and independent control gear. In a luminaire, the control gear is dominant in this respect.
Control gear, together with other components, should comply with these standards.
NOTE 3 Requirements for the digital addressable lighting interface of electronic control gear are given in
IEC 62386.
