Overview

SIST EN 60061-3:2000/A29:2004 is an important European standard issued by CENELEC that focuses on lamp caps and holders along with gauges used for controlling interchangeability and safety. This standard is part 3 of the IEC 60061 series and specifically covers the specifications for gauges. Its primary purpose is to ensure that lamp caps and holders are compatible and safe for use across various lighting applications in Europe.

This amendment A29 updates the original EN 60061-3:1993 to reflect current safety requirements and maintain uniformity across European member states. It has been officially adopted by all CENELEC members, including countries such as Germany, France, the UK, and others, ensuring harmonized application.

Key Topics

  • Gauge Specifications: Defines precise measurements and design criteria for gauges used in verifying lamp caps and holders.
  • Interchangeability Control: Establishes methods to guarantee that lamp caps and holders can be safely and reliably interchanged without risk.
  • Safety Compliance: Sets requirements to prevent electrical hazards and mechanical mismatches in lighting equipment.
  • Standardization Process: Details the implementation timeline and withdrawal of conflicting national standards.
  • Multi-language Accessibility: The standard is available officially in English, French, and German, with approved translations in other languages by member countries.

Applications

The SIST EN 60061-3:2000/A29:2004 standard is highly valuable for:

  • Lighting Manufacturers: Ensuring new lamp caps and holders meet European safety and compatibility norms before market release.
  • Quality Control Laboratories: Using defined gauges to assess and confirm interchangeability compliance for lighting components.
  • Safety Inspectors and Regulators: Applying a uniform benchmark for product certification and conformity assessments across Europe.
  • Importers and Distributors: Verifying that imported lamp components match EU standards to avoid regulatory issues and ensure consumer safety.
  • Product Designers: Incorporating industry-approved dimensions and tolerances to optimize lamp and holder designs for compatibility.

Related Standards

  • IEC 60061 Series: The overarching international standard for lamp caps, holders, and gauges addressing other parts like definitions and performance.
  • EN 60061-1: General requirements for lamp caps and holders.
  • EN 60061-2: Performance and testing methods for caps and holders.
  • CLC/TS 60061: Technical specifications complementing the enforcement of the main standards.
