CLC/TC 97 - Electrical installations for lighting and beaconing of aerodromes
To prepare standards for design, installation, operation and maintenance of aeronautical ground lighting of aerodromes. The activity covers requirements which apply to the whole system from the power source up to and including the luminaries used in aeronautical ground lighting. The activity will not cover - electrical installations already standardised by TC 64; - luminaries not used as aeronautical ground lights standardised by TC 34; - special cables for the constant current series circuit standardised by TC 20. Note : Operational requirements for aeronautical ground lights are specified in Annex 14 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation (Volume I, Aerodrome Design and Operations).

CLC is a standardization organization that develops and publishes standards to support industry, commerce, and regulatory requirements.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CLC is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
This International Standard specifies the requirements for a Constant Current Regulator (CCR) having a nominal output of 6,6 A for use in an aeronautical ground lighting constant current series circuit. However CCRs may be manufactured which have a different power rating (kVA) and current steps than those specified in this standard in order to be used on existing circuits. This standard shall be applied where appropriate for these CCRs.

This standard covers constant current regulators used in series circuits of aviation ground lighting installations. This prestandard is applicable to constant current regulator assemblies, including control and monitoring devices, used for supply of a constant current to series connected light sources in airfield lighting systems. The Constant Current Regulator is designed to produce a constant current output independent of variations in the circuit load or, in some limits , of variations in the input voltage to the Constant Current Regulator. The object is to provide equipment specifications and tests for constant current regulators used on airport that are considered necessary to meet the operational standards adopted by ICAO and to cover all aspects of safety (electrical, thermal and mechanical). This prestandard is in accordance with ICAO Annexe XIV. In any case, any new operational need for Air Navigation Safety purposes could change some data or principles issued in this prestandard.
