This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2006-11-01. CENELEC members are bound to comply
with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard
the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the Central Secretariat or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified
to the Central Secretariat has the same status as the official versions.

Foreword
The text of document 34C/754/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 61347-2-7, prepared by SC 34C,
Auxiliaries for lamps, of IEC TC 34, Lamps and related equipment, was submitted to the
IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 61347-2-7 on 2006-11-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 61347-2-7:2001 + corrigendum July 2003.
This EN 61347-2-7:2006 provides technical updating to take account of the practical usage of this type
of control gear, alignment with the safety requirements for emergency lighting luminaires
(EN 60598-2-22), and advances in the field of lamp and control gear.
This standard shall be used in conjunction with EN 61347-1:2001.
In this standard, the following print types are used:
– requirements : in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in smaller roman type.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
(dop) 2007-08-01
national standard or by endorsement
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
(dow) 2009-11-01
with the EN have to be withdrawn
Annex ZA has been added by CENELEC.
