91.160 - Lighting

IEC 60050-845:2020 gives the general terminology used in lighting, as well as general terms pertaining to specific applications and associated technologies. This second edition reviews and complements the previous one. It has the status of a horizontal publication in accordance with IEC Guide 108:2006. This terminology is consistent with the terminology developed in the other specialized parts of the IEV.

This document specifies requirements for the commissioning of lighting systems in buildings to meet design specifications. This document presents details of the commissioning of lighting systems without focusing on the technical characteristics of specific components. This document can be applied to new installations of non-residential buildings and public spaces of multi-residence buildings. This document does not cover the commissioning of lighting systems concerning the electrical power conne...view more

ISO/CIE 8995-3:2018 specifies the lighting requirements which will contribute to the visual needs for safety and security within outdoor work places.

NEXT ACTION: CCMC to finalize publication
2019-11-13 PeC: BT approved the publication
2019-03-21 - GEM - TC discussed with consultant (C. Maes) at meeting (MArch 2019) - comments accepted - Annex ZA to be dated. Project has normative refverence to PR=63474, which creates a dependency.
2019-02-28 PC: to be flagged for LVD citation when ready
2018-12-17 PC: "Lack of compliance" for LVD, undated references in the Annex ZA and some points in the standards should be clarified

EN 4705 describes the measurement method for the lifetime behaviour of aircraft cabin light units in a standardized aircraft-related environment.

This European Standard contains performance requirements and recommendations for electrical lighting systems in the interiors of public transport railway rolling stock under all operating and emergency conditions. This European Standard does not address lighting installed in instruments or controls.

This European Standard specifies the requirements for measurement of electrical, photometric, and colorimetric quantities of LED lamps, modules, light engines and luminaires, for operation with AC or DC supply voltages, possibly with associated control gear. Photometric and colorimetric quantities covered in this standard include total luminous flux, luminous efficacy, partial luminous flux, luminous intensity distribution, centre-beam intensities, luminance and luminance distribution, chromatic...view more

This European Standard contains performance requirements and recommendations for electrical lighting systems in the interiors of public transport urban rail vehicles, as defined in the CEN-CENELEC Guide 26, i.e. Metro Systems, Trams, Light Rail, and Local Rail Systems, under all operating and emergency conditions.
This European Standard also defines the requirements for testing and conformity assessment.

This European Standard specifies minimum recommendations for achieving, by means of natural light, an adequate subjective impression of lightness indoors, and for providing an adequate view out. In addition, recommendations for the duration of sunshine exposure within habitable and occupied rooms are given. This European Standard gives information on how to use daylighting to provide lighting within interiors, and how to limit glare. This European Standard defines metrics used for the evaluation...view more

The document specifies steps to be taken in the lighting system design process and lists responsibilities for the implementation and operation of the lighting solution. The aim of the process is:
1)   to design lighting system solutions for sustainable lighting quality based on recommendations in the relevant lighting application standards, for wellbeing of users and for pleasant built environment, and
2)   to ensure that the light requirements are fulfilled with energy efficient solutions (lumina...view more

This document specifies a standardized way of working for determining the maintenance factor for both outdoor and indoor lighting installations using the methodology as described in CIE 154:2003 and CIE 097:2005.

This European Standard specifies lighting for those indoor and outdoor sports events most practised in Europe. This standard only considers artificial lighting. It provides lighting values for the design and control of sports lighting installations in terms of illuminances, uniformity, glare restriction and colour properties of the light sources. All requirements are meant to be as minimum requirements. It also gives methods by which these values are measured. For the limitation of glare, it als...view more

This document specifies the methodology for evaluating the energy performance of lighting systems for providing general illumination inside non-residential buildings and for calculating or measuring the amount of energy required or used for lighting inside buildings. This document does not cover lighting requirements, the design of lighting systems, the planning of lighting installations, the characteristics of lighting equipment (lamps, control gear and luminaires) and systems used for display ...view more
