European foreword
This document (EN 60081:1998/A11:2018) has been prepared by CLC/TC 34 "Lamps and related
equipment".
The following dates are fixed:
– latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2019-02-26
implemented at national level
by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting (dow) 2021-02-26
with this document have to be withdrawn
Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes which are additional to those in
IEC 60081:1997 and its amendments are prefixed “Z”.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Regulation(s).
For the relationship with EU Regulations see informative Annex ZZA and Annexe ZZB, which are
integral part of this document.
This standard provides test methods related to parameters as prescribed by EC Regulation 245/2009,
and EU Regulation 874/2012 while conformity assessment (sampling, conformity procedures as well
as limits) for market surveillance are specified in the text of the above Regulations.
CONTENTS Replacement of Annex ZA of EN 60081:1998:

Annex ZA (normative) Normative references to international publications with
their corresponding European publications
Add the following annexes:
Annex ZZA (informative) Relationship between this European Standard and the
requirements of Commission Regulation (EC) No 245/2009
Annex ZZB (informative) Relationship between this European Standard and the
requirements of Commission Regulation (EU) No 874/2012

1.Z1 Add the following clause before Subclause 1.3
1.Z1 Overall statement
Where a Commission Regulation specifies limits for parameters these limits shall be
used instead of the limits specified in this standard.
1.4.Z1 After 1.4.11 add new definitions 1.4.Z1 up to 1.4.Z3:
1.4.Z1
efficacy
‘luminous efficacy of a source’, ‘light source efficacy’ or ‘lamp efficacy’ (η )
source
quotient of the luminous flux emitted (Ф) by the power consumed by the source
(Psource). ηsource = Ф / Psource. Unit: lm/W
Note 1 to entry: The power dissipated by auxiliary equipment such as ballasts is not included in the
power consumed by the source.
[SOURCE: Regulation 245/2009 Annex II, 1.a)]
1.4.Z2
lamp lumen maintenance factor (LLMF)
ratio of the luminous flux emitted by the lamp at a given time in its life to the initial
luminous flux
[SOURCE: Regulation 245/2009 Annex II, 1.b)]
1.4.Z3
lamp survival factor (LSF)
fraction of the total number of lamps which continue to operate at a given time under
defined conditions and switching frequency
[SOURCE: Regulation 245/2009 Annex II, 1.c)]
1.5.6 Before the text in 1.5.6, add a new Subclause 1.5.6.Z1
1.5.6.Z1 General
After 1.5.6.Z1 add new Subclauses 1.5.6.Z2 and 1.5.6.Z3 as follows:
1.5.6.Z2 Chromaticity, correlated colour temperature and colour rendering
index
The chromaticity coordinates and correlated colour temperature of an individual lamp
shall be calculated according to CIE 15 from a measurement made under the
conditions of Annex B.
The colour rendering index of an individual lamp shall be calculated according to
CIE 13.3 from a measurement made under the conditions of Annex B.
1.5.6.Z3 Efficacy
The efficacy of an individual lamp shall be calculated from a measurement of luminous
flux and power according to the conditions of Annex B.
1.5.7 Replace text of 1.5.7 with new Subclauses 1.5.7.Z1 and 1.5.7.Z2 as follows:
1.5.7.Z1 Lamp lumen maintenance factor
The lamp lumen maintenance factor of an individual lamp shall be calculated from
measurements of its luminous flux made at appropriate times according to the
conditions of Annex B. Lamp operation between these measurements shall be as
prescribed in Annex C.
1.5.7.Z2 Lamp survival
The survival of an individual lamp shall be determined by operating lamps under the
conditions prescribed in Annex C until the lamp fails to remain alight or delivers low
light output (in case of doubt, low light output refers to noticeably less than 50 % of
rated light output).
1.5.Z1 After 1.5.8 add new Subclause 1.5.Z1
1.5.Z1 Mercury content
The average mercury content shall be measured in accordance with the CV AAS
method as described in EN 62321-4. Lamp sample preparation shall be in accordance
with EN 62554.
B.1.3.Z.1 Before the text in B.1.3, add a new Subclause B.1.3.Z1
B.1.3.Z1 General
After B.1.3.Z1 add new Subclause B.1.3.Z.2
B.1.3.Z.2 Measurement ballast
For lamps that are specified for operation on both a.c. mains frequencies and high
frequency, the information given on the data sheet for “HF measurement ballast
characteristics” defines the reference ballast for HF operation.
