EQUIPMENT FOR GENERAL LIGHTING PURPOSES –
EMC IMMUNITY REQUIREMENTS

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61547 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 34: Lamps
and related equipment.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2009. This edition
constitutes a technical revision
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) extension of scope with end-user replaceable modules and the combination of end-user
replaceable module and independent auxiliary;
b) clarification of module testing in a host system;
c) increased ESD and surge test levels for road and street lighting equipment;
d) the introduction of ESD testing under normal operation and handling conditions;
e) removal of line to ground surge test for self-ballasted lamps ≤ 25 W.

EQUIPMENT FOR GENERAL LIGHTING PURPOSES –
EMC IMMUNITY REQUIREMENTS



1 Scope
This part of IEC 61547 which deals with electromagnetic immunity requirements, applies to
lighting equipment which is within the scope of IEC technical committee 34, including
apparatus such as lamps, luminaires, and modules.
Excluded from the scope of this document are:
– components or modules intended to be built into lighting equipment and which are not
end-user replaceable;
– equipment for which the electromagnetic compatibility requirements in the radio-frequency
range are explicitly formulated in other product immunity standards, even if they
incorporate a built-in lighting function.
NOTE Examples of exclusions are:
– equipment with built-in lighting devices for display back lighting, scale illumination and signaling;
– SSL-displays;
– range hoods, refrigerators, freezers;
– photocopiers, projectors;
– electronic switches for fixed installations;
– lighting equipment for road vehicles (within the scope of CISPR 12);
– lighting equipment for aircraft and airfield facilities.
However, in multi-function equipment where the lighting function operates independently from
other functions, the electromagnetic immunity requirements of this document apply to the
lighting function only.
Lighting equipment with a wireless control function are also within the scope of this document.
However, the test is limited to the control of the lighting function only. Radio properties like
frequency stability or spurious emissions are not assessed.
EXAMPLE Colour/light level control via a wireless interface are meant to stay intact after an immunity test.
Also included in the scope of this document is lighting equipment that interfaces with systems
or installations other than common power supply networks.
The requirements of this document are based on the requirements for domestic, commercial
and light-industrial environments as given in IEC 61000-6-1:2016, but modified to lighting
engineering practice.
It can be expected that lighting equipment complying with the requirements of this document
will operate satisfactorily in other environments. In some special cases, measures can be
taken to provide higher immunity. In this document it is impracticable to deal with all these
possibilities. Such requirements can be established by contractual agreement between
supplier and purchaser.

4 Performance criteria
4.1 General
For the various immunity tests that apply, the performance of the following functions shall be
assessed, as far as applicable or specified by the manufacturer:
– the luminous intensity of the Iuminaire or of the light source(s);
– the control function, for example on/off switching, light level setting, colour adjustment,
wireless control.

---------------------- Page: 15 ----------------------
SIST EN IEC 61547:2023
– 10 – IEC 61547:2020 © IEC 2020
For these functions, three different levels of performance criteria are specified in 4.2. The
functions assessed and the performance criteria for each individual test shall be noted in the
test report.
The effects of electromagnetic disturbances on the life of the equipment under test are
excluded from this document.
4.2 Categorization of performance criteria
The following three categories of performance criteria apply.
a) Performance criterion A
During the test, no change of the Iuminous intensity shall be observed and the regulating
control, if any, shall operate during the test as intended.
b) Performance criterion B
During the test, the Iuminous intensity may change to any value. After the test, the
Iuminous intensity shall be restored to its initial value within 1 min (30 min for high
pressure gas discharge lamps). Regulating controls need not function during the test, but
after the test, the mode of the control shall be the same as before the test, provided that
during the test no mode changing commands were given.
c) Performance criterion C
During and after the test, any change of the luminous intensity is allowed and the light
source(s) may be extinguished. After the test, within 30 min, all functions shall return to
normal, if necessary by temporary interruption
...
