20、ization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities,
21、IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt w
22、ith may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
23、agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3)
24、IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are
25、used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the
26、 corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsibl
27、e for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committe
28、es and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
29、 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent r
30、ights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 61231 has been prepared by subcommittee 34A: Lamps, of IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment. This first edition cancels and replaces the second edition of IEC 61231,
31、published as a technical specification. It constitutes a technical revision, of which the main changes are indicated below: introduction of LED modules (Subclause 5.8). The text of this standard is based on the following documents: CDV Report on voting 34A/1345/CDV 34A/1374/RVC Full information on t
32、he voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. 4 61231 IEC:2010 The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged u
33、ntil the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. 61231 IEC:2010 5 INTRODUCTION The lamp industry striv
34、es continuously to meet customers needs. Its innovative power has led to a tremendous variety of different light sources. To enable customers and experts to find their way within the diversity of products, a general system for the coding of lamps has been developed. The code does not replace specifi
35、c markings used by individual manufacturers on their lamps or in their catalogues, but it is promoted for cross-referencing purposes and, in due course, to replace national and regional lamp coding systems which already exist. NOTE The code does not give all the technical characteristics necessary t
36、o specify a lamp fully. For this the relevant lamp standard and/or the manufacturers literature have to be consulted. 6 61231 IEC:2010 INTERNATIONAL LAMP CODING SYSTEM (ILCOS) 1 Scope and object This International Standard gives the rules for the international lamp coding system and covers all lamp
37、categories, excluding vehicle lamps. Coding for the main lamp types is specified and, for the others, will follow by amendments to this standard as appropriate. The object of the international lamp coding system is to improve communication about the different types of lamps; to help in discussions c
38、oncerning interchangeability and compatibility of products; to create a closer relationship between international standards and manufacturers literature (for example the code could be given in future in the relevant parts of a standard); to enable correct replacements of lamps; to be used as a compl
39、ementary marking on the luminaire; to replace national and regional coding systems. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of th
40、e referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

42、ication 29.2, Guide on interior lighting 3 Principles The international lamp coding system has been developed on the basis of the following principles. It should be manufacturer-independent concerning its content and its wording. A relationship between the coding system and international standards s
43、hould be established. 61231 IEC:2010 7 It should be internationally acceptable. It is recognized that other systems with national and regional importance exist and that the change to an international code should be seen as a long-term process. The length of the code should be as short as possible an
44、d as long as necessary. Therefore, it should be possible to use the code in different lengths depending on the different purposes. In view of the technical diversity of the different lamp categories, it would not be practical to define the code for all types in the same way; the code depends therefo
45、re in its composition on the technical needs of the different lamp categories. The code should not replace manufacturer-specific marking on the lamp or in the catalogues, but should be used for cross-references in lamp and luminaire literature. The allocation of codes is based on interchangeability
46、and compatibility. An additional usage of the code on the lamp package should be envisaged for the future. 4 Basic structure The complete lamp code ILCOS consists of a letter section and a figure section. 4.1 Letter section The first letter of the letter section designates the lamp category as follo
47、ws: I Tungsten filament lamps H Tungsten halogen lamps (non-vehicle) F Fluorescent lamps S High-pressure sodium lamps L Low-pressure sodium lamps Q High-pressure mercury lamps M Metal halide lamps D LED modules X Special lamps NOTE Vehicle lamps, including their coding, are covered by national and/o
48、r regional legislation. The next letters within the letter section give further details as outlined in the description of the different lamp categories. The letter section is separated from the rest by a hyphen. 4.2 Figure section The figure section consists of several blocks mainly containing figur
49、es. Each block, separated by hyphens, contains characteristic values of lamps such as wattage; voltage; lamp cap; dimensional values. As a hyphen is used to separate the blocks, it cannot be applied within a block. As a consequence, the sign of equality = is used instead of the hyphen, for example within the cap designation. The sequence and the specific content of the blocks is determ
