The importance of European Standard EN61347 for LED power supplies and adaptors
Published : 06/22/2022 10:00:00
The ecosystem of products dedicated to LED lighting has become increasingly comprehensive, demonstrating the advantages of this technology such as reliability, long life, miniaturization, and an incredible degree of control and customization.
Thanks to the latest trends gravitating around the topic of reducing environmental impact, the European LED lighting market has clearly turned to more energy-efficient and sustainable lighting systems, a trend that has been firmly imposed with some European regulations and directives such as EN/IEC 61347 and the EcoDesign standard, and some organizations such as EPREL (European Product Registry on Energy Labelling).
So not only changes with a focus on general and safety requirements, but also directives in how to certify lighting fixtures and more specific requirements for handling import and export activities.
What is EN/IEC 61347 and why is it so important?
EN/IEC 61347 identifies the general and safety requirements for power supply and control units for lamps up to 250V direct current and up to 1000V alternating current, at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. The document was published by CEI (Comitato Elettrotecnico Italiano) by going to incorporate the original English text published by IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) in such a way as to define all requirements for each type of luminaire.
