IEC 62560: 2011 Self-ballasted LED-lamps for general lighting services by voltage > 50 V – Safety specifications

The IEC 62560:2011 standard specifies safety requirements for self-ballasted LED lamps intended for general lighting purposes, with voltages greater than 50 V and up to 250 V. It focuses on lamps that incorporate control gear and can be directly connected to the mains supply. The standard addresses critical safety aspects, including electrical, thermal, mechanical, and fire hazards, ensuring the lamps’ safe operation under normal and abnormal conditions. These safety measures apply to LED lamps with Edison screw or bayonet cap bases and are essential for protecting users from potential risks.

Additionally, IEC 62560:2011 outlines specific tests and criteria to verify compliance with safety requirements. These tests include dielectric strength, insulation resistance, temperature rise, and endurance under specific environmental and operational conditions. The standard aims to harmonize safety practices across manufacturers, ensuring consistent quality and safety for end-users worldwide. The document also covers markings and instructions that manufacturers must provide for proper usage and maintenance.
