27、or certain capacitors for use in tubular fluorescent and other discharge lamp circuits. Performance requirements for these capacitors are the subject of IEC 61049.

29、R DISCHARGE LAMP CIRCUITS GENERAL AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS 1 Scope This International Standard states the requirements for both self-healing and non-self-healing continuously rated a.c. capacitors of up to and including 2,5 kVAr, and not less than 0,1 F, having a rated voltage not exceeding 1 000 V,
30、which are intended for use in discharge lamp circuits operating at 50 Hz or 60 Hz and at altitudes up to 3 000 m. NOTE These lamps and associated ballasts are covered by IEC 60081, IEC 60901, IEC 60188, IEC 60192, IEC 60662, and IEC 61167 and by IEC 61347-2-8 and IEC 61347-2-9, respectively. It cove
31、rs capacitors intended for connection in shunt or in series with the lamp circuit or an effective combination of these. It covers only impregnated or unimpregnated capacitors, having a dielectric of paper, plastic film or a combination of both, either metallized or with metal foil electrodes. This s
32、tandard does not cover radio-interference suppressor capacitors the requirements for which are found in IEC 60384-14. Tests given in this standard are type tests. Requirements for testing individual capacitors during production are not included. 2 Normative references The following referenced docume

All exposed me
43、tal parts shall be constructed of non-ferrous material or shall be protected against rusting. Visible rust shall not occur. The test of Clause 15 will show whether the capacitor is sufficiently protected against rust. Tests for checking the mechanical robustness are under consideration. Compliance w
44、ith the requirements of Clauses 4 to 11 is checked by measurement, inspection and by carrying out all the tests specified in this standard. NOTE In Japan an additional capacitor type is permitted, details of which are to be found in JIS C 4908. Inclusion of the requirements for these capacitors in t
45、his standard is under consideration. 5 General notes on tests Tests according to this standard are type tests, (Annex C excluded). NOTE The requirements and tolerances permitted by this standard are related to testing of a type test sample submitted for that purpose. Compliance of the type test samp
46、le does not ensure compliance of the whole production of a manufacturer with this safety standard. Conformity of production is the responsibility of the manufacturer and includes routine tests and quality assurance in addition to type testing. Capacitors shall be subjected to the tests detailed in C
47、lause 12. Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at a temperature of (20 5) C, using where appropriate a voltage source as detailed in Annex A. Test temperatures specified in particular clauses shall be subject to a tolerance of 2 C, unless otherwise stated. Unless otherwise specifie
48、d, the type shall be deemed to comply with any one clause or subclause if not more than one failure occurs in the test of that clause or subclause. If three or more failures occur, the type shall be rejected. If two failures occur in any one test, that test, and any preceding tests which may have in
49、fluenced the test results, shall be repeated on the same quantity of capacitors and if any further failures occur, the type shall be rejected. NOTE A repeat test may be permitted only once in a series of tests according to the requirements of this standard. A repeat test is not permitted in the destruction test, Clause 18, in the case of a catastrophic failure.
