IEC 62612:2013 specifies the performance requirements, together with the test methods and conditions, required to show compliance of LED lamps with integral means for stable operation, intended for domestic and similar general lighting purposes, having: - a rated power up to 60 W; - a rated voltage of > 50 V a.c. up to 250 V a.c.; - a lamp cap as listed in IEC 62560. This first edition of IEC 62612 cancels and replaces IEC/PAS 62612. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC/PAS 62612. a) The standard explicitly states that real life time tests are not part of the test regime. Instead, a period of up to 6 000 h is chosen in order to assess manufacturers' claims of maintenance. b) Technical features have been adapted to IEC/PAS 62717 (performance of LED modules) as far as possible. Examples are the family approach and the temperature measuring point. c) Marking requirements are shifted from the product to the packaging. d) The number of lamps to be tested is made test specific, not general. e) First requirements are given for setting the colour for colour adjustable lamps and the luminous flux level of dimmable lamps. f) The structure of tests is clearly divided between requirement and compliance. g) Statistical compliance is separated into individual and average. h) Light output requirements are extended to luminous intensity distribution, peak intensity, beam angle and efficacy. i) The use of the terms 'correlated colour temperature' and 'chromaticity coordinates' is corrected. j) The number of tolerance categories is reduced from 8 to 4, and split between initial and maintained values. k) Colour rendering is differently assessed at initial and maintained state. l) Three lumen maintenance categories are given instead of five. m) The endurance tests are completely re-established. n) The verification (formerly: assessment) clause is completed. o) Information for luminaire design is added. p) Stabilisation is more precise (Annex A on the method of measuring lamp characteristics) and extension is made for the additional photometric and colorimetric parameters. q) Annex B on measuring luminous flux is contained in Annex A. New Annex B provides the photometric code. r) Further annexes are added: Annex C and D for displacement factor, Annex E for life time metrics/reliability and Annex F for examples of LED dies and LED packages.

IEC 62717:2014 specifies the performance requirements for LED modules, together with the test methods and conditions, required to show compliance with this standard. This first edition cancels and replaces IEC PAS 62717 published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC PAS 62717: - all terms and definitions are aligned with IEC 62504 and relevant documents of CIE. For example, general terms like "rated value" are shifted to IEC 62504. - a statement on the applicability on a population is included. - the normative references are completed and cleaned from standards that are not in use. - with regard to EMC, references to harmonic currents are given. - the change, which has an effect on most parts of the standard, is the split of failure mechanisms into abrupt failures and luminous flux depreciation. Consequently, new terms and definitions, new requirements for lumen maintenance and a complete new structure and contents of Annex C are introduced. - transition from tpmax to tprated is made, with the background that there is not one tpmax, but a choice of tp(rated) values, in combination with lifetime. - places where to mark (product, packaging, data sheets) are changed, and as a consequence of the split of failure mechanisms, new parameters are listed. Further, changes in the endurance test (ramping speed of temperature) are reflected in marking. - the concept of displacement factor instead of power factor is introduced. This led to new definitions, requirements and Annexes E and F. - the requirements on luminous efficacy are changed. - the requirements, associated with the family concept are reviewed. - statistics, based on confidence intervals are removed. This concerns requirements and limits for LED module power and luminous flux and deletion of Annex E. - new requirements for lumen maintenance are introduced. - as part of the endurance test, the maximum light decrease after accelerated operation life test is now fixed. - with regard to the discussion on type test and sample size, the number of pieces in a test sample is drastically reduced, see Table 7. - Annex A on measuring methods is completely restructured and reviewed, for example for ambient temperature and for shortening of stabilisation time when conducting subsequent light output measurements. - for electrical characteristics, the ageing time may be chosen as 500 h. - for photometric data file formats, reference is given to IEC 62722-1. - mistakes in the photometric code (Annex D) are corrected. - Annex G on optimised test duration is removed; instead, an INF sheet shall be published. - from the luminaire standard, a new Annex H on "Test equipment for temperature measurement" is taken over. - finally, the Bibliography is updated.

This International Standard specifies the performance requirements for single-capped and double-capped tungsten halogen lamps, having rated voltages of up to 250 V, used for the following applications:
- Projection (including cinematograph and still projection)
- Photographic (including studio)
- Floodlighting
- Special purpose
- General purpose
- Stage lighting
For some of the requirements given in this standard reference is made to "the relevant data sheet". For some lamps these data sheets are contained in this standard. For other lamps, falling under the scope of this standard, the relevant data are supplied by the lamp manufacturer or responsible vendor. The requirements of this standard relate only to type testing.
NOTE The requirements and tolerances permitted by this standard correspond to testing of a type test sample, submitted by the manufacturer for that purpose. In principle this type test sample should consist of units having characteristics typical of the manufacturer's production and being as close to the production centre point values as possible.
It may be expected with the tolerances given in the standard that products manufactured in accordance with the type test sample will comply with the standard for the majority of production. Due to the production spread however, it is inevitable that there will sometimes be products outside the specified tolerances. For guidance on sampling plans and procedures for inspection by attributes, see IEC 60410.

IEC 60432-3:2012 specifies the safety requirements for single-capped and double-capped tungsten halogen lamps, having rated voltages of up to 250 V, used for the following applications:  - projection (including cinematograph and still projection),  - photographic (including studio),  - floodlighting,  - special purpose,  - general purpose,  - stage lighting.  This second edition of IEC 60432-3 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2002, Amendment 1 (2005) and Amendment 2 (2008). The main changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows:  - adapting the cold fill pressure requirements and tests for self-shielded lamps to the state of the technology,  - introduction of requirements to fully cover photobiological safety according to IEC 62471.

This International Standard specifies the safety and interchangeability requirements, together with the test methods and conditions required to show compliance of LED-lamps with integrated means for stable operation (self-ballasted LED-lamps), intended for domestic and similar general lighting purposes, having: - a rated wattage up to 60 W; - a rated voltage of > 50 V up to 250 V; - caps according to Table 1. The requirements of this standard relate only to type testing. Recommendations for whole product testing or batch testing are identical to those given in Annex C of IEC 62031.

IEC 60662:2011 specifies performance requirements for high-pressure sodium vapour lamps for general lighting purposes which comply with the safety requirements of IEC 62035. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1980 and its amendments. It constitues a technical revision. Main items that required development of the 2nd edition of IEC 60662 are:  - restriction to performance requirements. Safety requirements are given in IEC 62035: Discharge lamps (excluding fluorescent lamps) - Safety specifications;  - introduction of a test device for ignition;  - split of the lamp data sheets which make use of the test device and those which do not;  - provisions for measurement during starting, measurement of electrical and photometrical characteristics and tests for lumen maintenance and life;  - general review e.g. of maximum lamp outlines and alignment of data;  - new order of data sheets by wattage.

IEC 62554:2011 specifies sample preparation methods for determining mercury levels in new tubular fluorescent lamps (including single capped, double capped, self-ballasted and CCFL for backlighting) containing 0,1 mg mercury or more. The intended resolution of the methods described in this standard is of the order of 5 %. Mercury level measurement of spent lamps is excluded, as during lamp operation, mercury gradually diffuses into the glass wall and reacts with the glass materials. The test method of this standard does not recover mercury that is diffused into or reacted with or otherwise incorporated irreversibly with the glass wall of discharge tubes. This standard does not contain information on measurement. Measurement is specified in IEC 62321.

IEC/TR 61341:2010 describes the method of measuring and specifying the centre beam intensity and the associated beam angle(s) of reflector lamps. It applies to:
- incandescent,
- tungsten halogen,
- gas-discharge and LED based reflector lamps for general lighting purposes. It does not apply to lamps for special purposes such as projection lamps. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1994 and constitutes a technical revision. Due to the increasing use of reflector equipped LED lamps, the scope has been broadened and measurement conditions been included in order to take account of these lamps. Further, for easier understanding of the relation between the different axis and different intensities, two figures have been added. The luminous intensity distribution shall be reported instead of the centre beam intensity, if the latter is very low ("butterfly" distributions).
