Lamp controlgear - Part 2.9: Particular requirements for electromagnetic controlgear for discharge lamps (excluding fluorescent lamps)
Specifies particular safety requirements for electromagnetic controlgear for discharge lamps such as high-pressure mercury vapour, low-pressure sodium vapour, high-pressure sodium vapour and metal halide lamps. The standard covers inductive-type electromagnetic controlgear for use on a.c. supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz, associated with discharge lamps, having rated wattages, dimensions and characteristics as specified in IEC 60188, IEC 60192 and IEC 60662. Adopted with national modifications, and has been reproduced from, IEC 61347-2-9:2012 (ED.2.0).
