ultraviolet hazard efficacy of luminous radiation
K
,
S v
quotient of an ultraviolet hazard quantity to the corresponding photometric quantity
NOTE 1 Ultraviolet hazard efficacy of luminous radiation is expressed in mW/klm.
NOTE 2 The ultraviolet hazard efficacy of luminous radiation is obtained by weighting the spectral power
distribution of the lamp with the UV hazard function S (λ). Information about the relevant UV hazard function is
UV
given in IEC 62471. It only relates to possible hazards regarding UV exposure of human beings. It does not deal
with the possible influence of optical radiation on materials, such as mechanical damage or discoloration.
Subclause 5.2
Delete, item a) and its text.
Replace the text of item e) with the following new text and new Figure 6:
e) Lamps with bulbs not suitable for water contact shall be marked with the symbol according
to Figure 6. The marking shall be provided on the packaging or accompanying information.
The height of the graphical symbol shall be at least 5 mm. The symbol is not needed if a
written cautionary notice is provided such as ‘Use in Dry Locations only’.

6.2 Bending moment, axial pull and mass
Replace the title and text of this subclause including Table 2 as follows:
6.2 Bending moment and mass imparted by the lamp at the lamp holder
The value of the bending moment and mass, imparted by the lamp at the lampholder shall not
exceed the value given in Table 2 or, where not given, the value in the system information on
cap sheets specified in IEC 60061-1.
The bending moment shall be determined by measuring the weight of the lamp (e. g. by
means of a balance) at the tip of the bulb of the horizontally held lamp and multiplying this
force by the distance between the tip of the bulb and the pivot line. The pivot line shall lie at

IEC 62560:2011/AMD1:2015 – 5 –

the bottom end of the cylindrical part (for Edison and bayonet caps) or at the end of the
contact pins (for pin caps). It shall be supported by an upright held thin metal sheet or a
similar means.

NOTE 1 For lamps with caps different to those in Table 2, the effect of the bending moment should be regarded
and limited. A measurement method for these lamps with these caps is under consideration.
NOTE 2 It should be taken care that the luminaire surface where the lampholder is fixed to can withstand the
bending moment. For the calculation of this bending moment, the length of the lampholder needs to be taken into
account when measuring the overall length. This should be made sure for the elevated temperature during
operation in order to check the possible softening of the surface material.
NOTE 3 Requirements for lamps with additional mechanical fixation e.g. rim mounted lamps, is under
consideration.
