LUMINAIRE PERFORMANCE –
Part 2-1: Particular requirements for LED luminaires

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62722-2-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 34D: Luminaires,
of IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment.
This first edition of IEC 62722-2-1 cancels and replaces IEC PAS 62722-2-1. published in
2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the Publicly
Available Specification.
a) The testing time is aligned with IEC 62717 and the option of 2 000 h is removed. Products
containing modules not in compliance with IEC 62717 are now tested to 6 000 h.
b) Testing sample sizes have been modified to give valid statistical data.
c) The temperature reduction of 10 °C for street lanterns and floodlights has been removed.
d) Life definitions have been updated and aligned with IEC 62717.

INTRODUCTION
This standard is the conversion of IEC PAS 62722-2-1 into a full IEC performance standard
for LED luminaires for general lighting applications. It acknowledges the need for relevant
tests for luminaires using this new source of electrical light. The publication is seen in close
context with simultaneously developed and edited publication of performance standards for
luminaires in general and for LED modules. This standard does not consider luminaires
designed for LED lamps, which are covered in IEC 62722-1. Changes in the LED luminaires
standard will have impact on the LED module standards and vice versa, due to the behaviour
of LED. Therefore, in the development of the present standard, mutual consultancy of experts
of both products has taken place.
The provisions in the standard represent the technical knowledge of experts from the fields of
the semiconductor (LED chip) industry and of those of the traditional electrical light sources
and luminaires.

LUMINAIRE PERFORMANCE –
Part 2-1: Particular requirements for LED luminaires

1 Scope
This part of IEC 62722 specifies the performance requirements for LED luminaires, together
with the test methods and conditions, required to show compliance with this standard. It
applies to LED luminaires for general lighting purposes.
The following types of LED luminaires are distinguished.
– Type A – Luminaires using LED modules where compliance with IEC 62717 has been
proven.
– Type B – Luminaires using LED modules where compliance with IEC 62717 has not been
proven.
– Type C – Luminaires using a LED lamp and covered in IEC 62722-1.
The requirements of this standard only relate to type testing.
This standard does not cover Type C luminaires.
This standard does not cover LED luminaires that intentionally produce coloured light, neither
does it cover luminaires using OLEDs (organic LEDs).
These performance requirements are additional to the requirements in IEC 62722-1,
Clauses 1 to 9, except where in this Part 2-1 alternative methods of measurement or limits are
specified.
As this standard has been simultaneously developed and edited with the standard for LED
modules, where appropriate the compliance of the LED modules to the provisions of
IEC 62717 may be transferred to the whole luminaire.
Life time of LED luminaires is in most cases much longer than the practical test times.
Consequently, verification of manufacturer’s life time claims cannot be made in a sufficiently
confident way. For that reason the acceptance or rejection of a manufacturer’s life time claim,
past 25 % of rated life (with a maximum of 6 000 h), is out of the scope of this standard.
Instead of life time validation, this standard has opted for lumen maintenance categories at a
defined finite test time. Therefore, the category number does not imply a prediction of
achievable life time. The categories are lumen-depreciation character categories showing
behaviour in agreement with manufacturer’s information which is provided before the test is
started.
In order to validate a life time claim, an extrapolation of test data is needed. A general method
of projecting measurement data beyond limited test time is unde
...
