20、r consideration. O BSI 31 August 2001 7 EN 60969:1993 Annex A Method of measuring lamp characteristics A.l General All tests shall be made in a draught-proof room at an ambient temperature of (25 f 1) “C and a relative humidity of 65 % maximum. The test voltage shall be stable within f0.5 %, during
21、stabilization periods, this tolerance being reduced to f0.2 % at the moment of measurements. For life testing the tolerance is 2 %. The total harmonic content of the supply voltage shall not exceed 3 %.i) The harmonic content is defined as the r.m.s. summation of the individual harmonic components u
22、sing the fundamental as 100 %. All tests shall be carried out at rated frequency. Unless otherwise specified for a specific purpose by the manufacturer or responsible vendor, lamps shall be operated in free air in a vertical base-up position for all tests including life tests. Electrical and photome
23、tric instruments used shall be selected having a guaranteed accuracy commensurate with the requirements of the test. A.2 Starting and run-up The starting and run-up tests shall be made before ageing except in the case of lamps declared by the manufacturer to be VPC (Vapour Pressure Control) types, w
24、here the following procedure shall be carried out. VPC lamps are aged for aperiod of at least 1 O0 h of normal operation and then switched off for at least 24 h before the run-up test is performed. The starting test for VPC lamps shall be performed both before ageing and at the commencement of the r
25、un-up test. The test voltage for the starting test shall be equal to 92 % of the rated voltage or, in case of a voltage range, 92 % of the minimum value of that range. For run-up the test voltage is increased to the rated voltage or in the case of a lamp with a voltage range increased to the mean va
26、lue of the voltage range. A.3 Electrical and photometric characteristics A.3.1 Test voltage The test voltage shall be the rated voltage. In the case of a voltage range, measurements shall be carried out at the mean value. A.3.2 Ageing Lamps shall have been aged for a period of 100 h of normal operat
27、ion. A.3.3 Stabilization time Lamps shall be measured at the test voltage immediately after the stabilization period as stated by the manufacturer or responsible vendor. A4 Lamp life and lumen maintenance A.4.1 Ambient Ambient temperature shall be kept within the range of 15 “C to 40 OC. Excessive d
28、raught should be avoided and the lamps should not be subjected to extreme vibration and shocks. A.4.2 Test voltage The test voltage shall be the rated voltage with a tolerance of k2%. In the case of a voltage range, measurements shall be carried out at the mean value. These conditions are under cons
29、ideration. For some self-ballasted lamps a lower value is necessary for proper electrical and photometric measurements. 8 O BSI 31 August 2001 EN 60969:1993 A.4.3 Switching on and off Lamps on lumen maintenance and life test shall be switched off eight times in every 24 h running. The “off period sh
30、all be between 10 min and 15 min. The “on” period shall be at least 10 min. A.4.4 Establishing of average life The average life shall be derived from a test quantity of at least 20 lamps. 9 O BSI 31 August 2001 EN 60969:1993 7 e Annex ZA (normative) Other international publications quoted in this st
