Overview
This standard specifies the safety and the interchangeability requirements of tungsten halogen lamps for general lighting service. It covers those tungsten halogen lamps that are used as direct replacements for conventional tungsten filament lamps as well as new tungsten halogen lamps which have no correspondence in IEC 60432-1, but for which the safety and interchangeability requirements are treated by this standard in conjunction with IEC 60432-1. These tungsten filament lamps have the following characteristics: - rated wattage up to and including 250 W; - rated voltage of 50 V to 250 V inclusive; - caps B15d, B22d, E14, E27 or E27/51x39. Lamps complying with this standard are self-shielded. This part of IEC 60432 covers photobiological safety according to IEC 62471 and IEC/TR 62471-2. Lamps covered by this part of IEC 60432 do not reach risk levels that require risk group marking. The committee responsible for this standard is UK 521.1 "Elektrische Lampen" ("Electrical lamps") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
