| Title | Luminaires - Part 1: General requirements and tests |
| Project Number | 21717 |
| Abstract/Scope | IEC 60598-1:2008 specifies general requirements for luminaires, incorporating electric light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1 000 V. The requirements and related tests of this standard cover: classification, marking, mechanical construction and electrical construction. This seventh edition cancels and replaces the sixth edition published in 2003. It constitutes a technical revision. The major changes which may affect certification are given in Annex R. Annex R shows where a new text has been included which contains more serious/critical requirements requiring products to be re-tested. Subclauses 1.2.71, 3.2.19, 4.21, 4.24, Annex P: Requirements self shielded lamps and UV protection. Subclauses 1.2.42, 5.2.14, 5.2.16, 8.2.3, 9.2: SELV requirements. Subclauses 1.2.78, 1.2.79, 1.2.80, 3.3, 10.1, 10.3, Annex G: Touch current, protective current and electric burn. Subclauses 1.2.81, 1.2.82, 3.2.20, 4.14.3, Table 12.1: Hot surfaces. Subclauses 0.5.2, 1.2.83, Annex V: Terminal block with integrated earthing contact. Subclauses 3.2.22, Figure 1: replaceable fuses. Subclauses 1.2.8, 8.2.1, 8.2.4, 8.2.5, 8.2.6: Access to basic insulation of luminaries. Subclauses 2.4, 12.6, 3.2.9, 3.2.21, 4.16, Annex D, Annex N: Marking of luminaires not suitable for mounting on normally flammable surfaces and covering with insulation. Subclause 4.12.4: Torque requirements for lampholders with a single means of fixing exposed to a rotary action. Subclause 9.2: Requirements for protection of lamp splashing. |

(1) Date of ratification (dor) date when the Technical Board notes the approval of an EN (and HD for CENELEC), from which time the standard may be said to be approved
(2) Date of availability (dav) date when the definitive text in the official language versions of an approved CEN/CENELEC publication is distributed by the Central Secretariat
(3) Date of announcement (doa) latest date by which the existence of an EN (and HD for CENELEC), a TS or a CWA has to be announced at national level
(4) Date of publication (dop) latest date by which an EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement
(5) Date of withdrawal (dow) latest date by which national standards conflicting with an EN (and HD for CENELEC) have to be withdrawn
(6) This list of normative references is purely indicative. The only official list of normative reference is the list of the published standard.
