EN 60598-2-8:2013 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 60598-2-8:1997 + A1:2000 + A2:2008: a) The requirements have been updated to make them consistent and to solve contradicting requirements i
14、ntroduced in the Amendment 2. In that amendment, a requirement was introduced specifying that handlamp shall always be classified as rough service luminaire only. The implication of this statement was that according to 4.13.4 of Part 1 this kind of luminaire shall always be IP54.This requirements is
15、 in contradiction with several points of this Part 2 where it is considered acceptable for ordinary luminaires (e.g. 8.11.1, 8.11.2 and 8.13.1). b) Furthermore, the contradiction between the requirement in 8.7.1 and 8.7.2 regarding the type of material used for the protective cover has been correcte

24、ments for handlamps and similar portable luminaires which are held in the hand, hooked up or resting on a surface for use with electric light sources on supply voltages not exceeding 250 V. It is to be read in conjunction with those sections of Part 1 to which reference is made. Handlamps which can
25、be fixed to a support by means of a wing screw, clip or magnet, and luminaires intended for inspection of the interior of barrels, are within the scope of this part of IEC 60598. 8.2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and ar

29、.3.4 sealed handlamp handlamp of which all protective covers are sealed and which makes it impossible to replace the lamp without destroying the handlamp 8.4 General test requirements 8.4.1 The provisions of Section 0 of IEC 60598-1 apply together with the requirements of 8.4.2. The tests described
30、in each appropriate section of Part 1 shall be carried out in the order listed in this Part 2-8. 8.4.2 The requirements of the third paragraph of 0.4.2 of Section 0 of IEC 60598-1 do not apply. In general, four samples are necessary for the tests, three of which are subjected to the tests of 8.7.6,
31、the fourth sample being subjected to the other tests. All four samples shall be subjected to the test for rough service hand-held luminaires of 4.13.4 b) of IEC 60598-1. For handlamps provided with a rubber protection cover, an additional sample is necessary for the test of 8.13.1. Where a range of
32、similar handlamps is involved, the specified tests are made on a representative complete set from the range. This set shall include handlamps, together with any attachments, which represents the most unfavourable combination. 8.5 Classification of luminaires Luminaires shall be classified in accorda
33、nce with the provisions of Section 2 of IEC 60598-1 together with the requirements of 8.5.1and 8.5.2. 8.5.1 According to the type of protection against electric shock, handlamps shall be classified as class II or class III. 8.5.2 According to the method of connecting the cable or cord, handlamps sha
34、ll be classified as: rewirable handlamps, or non-rewirable handlamps. 8.6 Marking The provisions of Section 3 of IEC 60598-1 apply, together with the requirements of 8.6.1, and 8.6.2. 8.6.1 The symbol for class II or class III, the marking for rated voltage of class III handlamps and the symbol for
35、the degree of protection against dust and moisture shall be on the outside of the handlamp. This requirement is met if the marking is visible from the outside through a translucent cover. The marking for maximum rated wattage shall not be in paint or ink, even when protected by varnish. BS EN 60598-
36、2-8:201360598-2-8 IEC:2013 7 Compliance shall be checked by inspection and by the test described in Section 3 of IEC 60598-1. 8.6.2 For handlamps with replaceable lamps and with type X attachment, the instructions regarding the method of opening and closing the luminaire shall be marked on the prote
37、ctive cover and shall remain visible during and after use. 8.7 Construction The provisions of Section 4 of IEC 60598-1 apply, together with the requirements of 8.7.1 to 8.7.6. 8.7.1 The shell and handle of the handlamp shall be of insulating material. 8.7.2 The lamp shall be protected against accide
38、ntal damage by a protective grid, translucent cover or similar protective means. These devices shall be rigidly fixed to the body of the handlamp and it shall not be possible to remove the device by hand. The protective device shall remain attached to the handlamp during the lamp replacement, e.g. b
39、y a hinge, chain or equally effective device. If an automatic switch interrupts the operation of the luminaire, when the protective device is removed for maintenance, the protective device may not be permanently attached to the luminaire. For handlamps with magnetic ballast for tubular fluorescent l
40、amps, the removal of the protective device shall be so arranged that the opening occurs at the end of the lamp where the lamp holder is connected to the magnetic ballast. If the protective device is of metal, it shall be so positioned or protected by insulation that it is not likely to be inadverten
41、tly touched when holding the handle. The distance between the glass of the tungsten filament lamp or the tubular fluorescent lamp or any protective glass and a plane through the outside of two adjacent bars of a protective grid or a protective cover, shall be at least 3 mm. Suspension hooks, if any,
42、 shall be securely fixed to the handlamp. Compliance is checked by inspection, by measurement and by loading the hook with a weight which is twice the weight of the luminaire, including the total weight of the attached cable, cord, ballast or transformer. The hook shall not deform such that the lumi
43、naire slips from the means of suspension which for testing purposes, is a 1 mm metal bar. 8.7.3 Handlamps shall not use resistive ballasts or resistive cables to limit the current in discharge lamps. 8.7.4 Lampholders for tungsten filament lamps shall be locked against rotation by at least two indep
44、endent means, at least one of which shall be operable only with the aid of a tool. The means of fixing shall not serve to fix any other part. Compliance shall be checked by inspection and by manual test. 8.7.5 Ballasts or transformers where connected in the flexible cable or cord shall be at a dista
45、nce not greater than 1 m from the plug and equipped with a suspension hook. Compliance shall be checked by inspection, by manual test and by measurement. 8.7.6 The test for mechanical strength described in 4.13 of Section 4 of IEC 60598-1 does not apply, except the test of 4.13.4 b) as mentioned in
46、8.4.2. In addition, the mechanical BS EN 60598-2-8:2013 8 60598-2-8 IEC:2013 strength shall be checked by the test described in 8.7.6.1, if applicable, and by the tests described in 8.7.6.2. 8.7.6.1 The grid, translucent covers and protective covers shall be firmly fixed. Compliance is checked by a
47、pull of 100 N for 1 h, applied to the parts of the body of the handlamp which, when loose, would allow to touch current-carrying parts. For handlamps containing tubular fluorescent lamps this is likely along its longitudinal axis. For sealed handlamps, in addition a torque test of 10 Nm shall be app
48、lied to the parts which, when loose, would allow to touch current-carrying parts. The grid or protective covers shall remain in position during and after the test. 8.7.6.2 The handlamp, fitted with a flexible cable or cord in accordance with the requirements of 8.11.2 and of suitable length, is subj
49、ected to two impact tests in which it is caused to swing against a steel bar which is mounted on a solid wall of brick, stone, concrete or similar material, as shown in Figure 1. a b c Steel packing block IEC 953/13 The steel packing block is necessary only if the shape of the handlamp is such that, without it, the handlamp does not hit the bar. For the key and further explanations, see 8.7.6.2. Figure 1 Arrangement for impact test for handlamps The bar is of 40 mm 40 mm 5 mm right-angle section with t
