Overview
FprEN 61167:2014/prAA:2015 is a CENELEC draft amendment addressing the performance specification for metal halide lamps. This prAA modifies IEC 61167:2015 to align lamp test methods and parameters with EU Ecodesign Regulations (notably EC 245/2009 and EC 1194/2012) and introduces common modifications, normative annexes and new definitions. The amendment clarifies measurement procedures for photometric and electrical characteristics and adds requirements for useful luminous flux, efficacy, lumen maintenance and survival.
Key Topics
- Scope & Purpose: Harmonises lamp test methods for conformity with relevant Commission Regulations and supports presumption of conformity when cited in the OJ of the EU.
- Definitions Added: New terms such as directional lamp, beam angle, partial luminous flux, useful luminous flux, efficacy, Lamp Lumen Maintenance Factor (LLMF) and Lamp Survival Factor (LSF) are defined to support ecodesign assessment.
- Measurement Methods: Photometric and electrical measurements are to be carried out in accordance with EN 13032-1 and EN 61341 (for centre beam intensity of reflector lamps). Annex B and Annex E specify conditions for 50/60 Hz and low frequency square wave reference ballast measurements respectively.
- Performance Parameters:
- Useful luminous flux measured by luminous intensity integration (EN 13032-4) or equivalent validated methods.
- Efficacy calculated from measured luminous flux and input power.
- LLMF and LSF determined from flux and endurance measurements per Annex C procedures.
- Chromaticity, CCT and CRI calculated per CIE 15 and CIE 13.3 using Annex B/E test conditions.
- Mercury content measured by the CV-AAS method in EN 62321-4.
- Marking & Special Purpose: Suppliers must declare when a lamp is a special purpose product per Regulation (EC) No 1194/2012.
Applications
This standard is primarily for:
- Manufacturers and test laboratories performing photometric and electrical testing of metal halide lamps.
- Product compliance teams preparing documentation for Ecodesign conformity and market surveillance.
- Lighting specifiers and procurement teams requiring validated lamp performance data (useful luminous flux, efficacy, CRI, LLMF, LSF).
Practical value includes standardised measurement methods that enable consistent comparisons of lamp performance and support regulatory compliance for energy efficiency and environmental limits (e.g., mercury content).
Related Standards
- EN 13032-1 / EN 13032-4 (photometric measurement and partial luminous flux)
- EN 61341 (centre beam intensity / beam angle)
- EN 62321-4 (mercury determination by CV-AAS)
- IEC 61167 (base international text)
Compliance with the clauses referenced in the annexes provides a presumption of conformity with Commission Regulations 245/2009 and 1194/2012 where applicable. For full legal and normative obligations, consult the final published EN 61167 and the cited EU regulations.

85 time under defined conditions and switching frequency
86 [SOURCE: Regulation 245/2009 Annex II, 1.c)]
87 4 Lamp requirements
88 4.2 Marking
89 Add the following paragraph at the end of 4.2
90 Where a lamp is to be considered as a special purpose product according to
91 Regulation (EC) No 1194/2012 this shall be declared by the supplier.
92 4.8.4 Requirements and test conditions
93 Replace “Under consideration” with the following new text:
94 The chromaticity coordinates and correlated colour temperature of an individual lamp
95 shall be calculated according to CIE 15 from a measurement made under the
96 conditions of Annex B or Annex E as appropriate
97 The colour rendering index of an individual lamp shall be calculated according to
98 CIE 13.3 from a measurement made under the conditions of Annex B or Annex E as
99 appropriate.
100 4.Z1 After Subclause 4.7 add new Subclause 4.Z1 as follows:
101 4.Z1 Useful luminous flux
102 The useful luminous flux of a directional lamp shall be measured under the conditions
103 of Annex A or Annex E as appropriate, by luminous intensity integration as described
104 in EN 13032-4 , 6.3 "Partial luminous flux".
105 Alternative measurement methods may be used if they can be shown to give
106 equivalent results for the product being tested, if necessary by applying correction
107 factors. Measurements with lamps operating horizontally are often much easier to
108 carry out. The reference method, however, uses the measurement position according
109 to A.1.
110 In case of doubt a goniophotometry measurement of EN 13032-4 clause 6.3 shall be
111 used.
112 NOTE Below are a few examples of alternative measurement methods. It is not an exhaustive list.
113 • For small beam angles shine into integrating sphere.
114 • Mount lamp on internal surface of integrating sphere.
115 • Mount lamp inside integrating sphere with screening (LM-20 technique).
116 • Illuminate a surface and measure the illuminance across the surface with a photometer.
117 • Illuminate a surface and measure the surface luminance with a luminance camera.
118 • Illuminate a translucent screen and measure the surface luminance of the rear side with a
119 luminance camera
120 4.Z2 After 4.9 add new Subclauses 4.Z2 up to 4.Z5 as follows:
121 4.Z2
122 The efficacy of an individual lamp shall be calculated from a measurement of luminous
123 flux and power according to the conditions of Annex B or Annex E as appropriate.
124 4.Z3
125 The lamp lumen maintenance factor of an individual lamp shall be calculated from
126 measurements of its luminous flux made at appropriate times according to the
127 conditions of Annex B or Annex E as appropriate. Lamp operation between these
128 measurements shall be as prescribed in Annex C.
129 4.Z4
130 The survival of an individual lamp shall be determined by
