Organische Licht emittierende Dioden (OLED) Lichtquellen für die Allgemeinbeleuchtung - Sicherheit - Teil 1: Allgemeine Anforderungen und Prüfungen (IEC 62868-1:2020 + AMD1:2025); Deutsche Fassung EN IEC 62868-1:2021 + A1:2025
Overview
This part of the IEC 62868 series of standards specifies general safety requirements of OLED products for use on DC supplies up to 1000 V or AC supplies up to 1000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz for indoors and similar general lighting purposes. Where an appropriate part of the IEC 62868-2 series for an OLED light source does not exist, the applicable part with the nearest configuration of the IEC 62868-2 series can be used as a guide to the requirements and tests in conjunction with this document. This document deals with the safety requirements and corresponding test procedures needed in order to assess whether an OLED product remains safe in the event of a malfunction and does not pose a hazard to users or property. OLED products covered by this document are not intended for use in displays, etcetera. OLED products in accordance with this document are used in interior lighting, for example, when light needs to be uniformly emitted across a surface.
