Energy performance of lamp controlgear

Part 2: Controlgear for discharge lamps (excluding low-pressure mercury fluorescent lamps) – Method of measurement to determine the efficiency of controlgear

(IEC 62442-2:2022); German version EN IEC 62442-2:2022
Class/Status: Standard, valid

This document for edition 3 of the IEC 62442 series defines a measurement method of the power losses of electromagnetic controlgear, the total input power and the standby power of electronic controlgear for high intensity discharged lamps (excluding fluorescent lamps). A calculation method of the efficiency of controlgear for high intensity discharged lamp(s) is also defined. It is assumed that the controlgear are designed for use on DC/AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. This document applies to electrical controlgear-lamp circuits comprised solely of the controlgear and of the lamp(s).
