_____________
1 Scope
Replace the existing first paragraph by the following:
This International Standard is applicable to lamps (filament lamps, discharge lamps and LED
light sources) to be used in headlamps, fog-lamps and signalling lamps for road vehicles. It is
especially applicable to those lamps which are listed in IEC 60809. However, the standard
may also be used for other lamps falling under the scope of this standard.
Renumber the existing note as Note 1.
Add the following new Notes 2 and 3:
NOTE 2 This standard does not apply to luminaires.
NOTE 3 In this standard, the term LED light source is used, in other standards the term LED lamps may be used
to describe similar products.
2 Normative references
Add the following references to the existing list:
CISPR 25, Vehicles, boats and internal combustion engines – Radio disturbance
characteristics – Limits and methods of measurement for the protection of on-board receivers

7 Requirements and test conditions for LED light sources
7.1 Basic function and interchangeability
LED light sources shall:
• be so designed as to be and to remain in good working order when in normal use;
• exhibit no fault in design or manufacture;
• exhibit no scores or spots on their optical surfaces which might impair their efficiency and
their optical performance.
Replaceable LED light sources shall be equipped with caps complying with IEC 60061-1. The
cap shall be strong and firmly secured to the rest of the LED light source.
To ascertain whether LED light sources conform to these requirements above, a visual
inspection, a dimension check and, where necessary, a trial fitting shall be carried out.
7.2 UV radiation
The UV-radiation of the LED light source shall be determined as:
400 nm
E (λ) S (λ) dλ
e
∫
λ=250nm
k =

780 nm
k E (λ) V (λ) dλ

λ=380nm
where
S(λ) (unit: 1) is the spectral weighting function;
= 683 lm/W is the maximum value of the luminous efficacy of radiation.
k
m
This value shall be calculated using intervals of one nm. The UV-radiation shall be weighted
according to the values as indicated in Table 5.
