AS/NZS 62838:2020
LEDsi lamps for general lighting services with supply voltages not exceeding 50 V a.c. r.m.s. or 120 V ripple free d.c. - Safety specifications
The objective of this Standard is to specify requirements for LED lamps with integrated means for stable operation, intended for domestic and similar general lighting purposes, having- a rated power up to 60 W; a rated voltage equal to or less than 50 V a.c. r.m.s. or equal or less than 120 V ripple free d.c.; and caps according to Table 1. For these lamps, this Standard specifies- safety and interchangeability requirements; and test methods and conditions required to show conformance. The requirements of this Standard relate only to type testing. This Standard is an adoption with national modifications, and has been reproduced from, IEC 62838:2015, LEDsi lamps for general lighting services with supply voltages not exceeding 50 V a.c. r.m.s. or 120 V ripple free d.c. - Safety specifications and its Corrigendum 1 (2017). The modifications are additional requirements and are set out in Appendix ZZ, which has been added at the end of the source text. Appendix ZZ lists the variations to IEC 62838:2015 for the application of this Standard in Australia and New Zealand.
