27、h such a clause is applicable and the orderin which the tests are to be performed; they also include additional requirements, asnecessary. All parts which make up IEC 61347-2 are self-contained and, therefore, do notinclude references to each other.Where the requirements of any of the clauses of IEC
28、 61347-1 are referred to in this standardby the phrase ”The requirements of clause n of IEC 61347-1 apply”, this phrase is interpretedas meaning that all requirements of the clause in question of part 1 apply, except any whichare clearly inapplicable to the specific type of lamp controlgear covered

30、 of IEC 61347 specifies particular requirements for electronic invertors andconvertors for high-frequency operation of tubular cold-cathode discharge lamps used insigns and luminous discharge tube installations and operating with an output voltageexceeding 1 000 V but not exceeding 10 000 V for dire
31、ct connection to supply voltages notexceeding 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz or 1 000 V d.c.NOTE 1 In Japan, the output voltage of 15 000 V is acceptable.The requirements for two types of invertors and convertors, types A and B, are specified asfollows: Type A unit: an invertor or convertor operating wit
32、hin the frequency range 20 kHz to50 kHz, and having an output voltage (between terminals) not exceeding 5 000 V peak, amaximum output current limited to 35 mA (r.m.s.) and 50 mA (peak value). The supplyvoltage does not exceed 250 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz or 250 V d.c.NOTE 2 The output current of a type A
33、 unit may be considered as not presenting an electric shock hazard due tothe limits on the current and frequency range.NOTE 3 In Japan, the output voltage of 15 000 V is acceptable. Type B unit: an invertor or convertor having a no-load output voltage not exceeding5 000 V to earth or 10 000 V betwee
34、n terminals, operating within the frequency range10 kHz to 100 kHz with a maximum output current limited to 200 mA (r.m.s.) and 400 mA(peak value).NOTE 4 Type B units require additional protection in the output circuit.NOTE 5 In Japan, a type B unit exceeding 50 mA and/or the secondary grounded is n
35、ot acceptable.In order to check the safety of invertors or convertors, it is necessary to check theirperformance. However, since no standardization of the characteristics of neon tubes exists,reference loads are specified in this standard to ensure reproducible test results.The rated maximum operati
36、ng temperature of the winding, tw, is not applicable to thisstandard.Page 5BS EN 61347-2-10:2001+A1:009EN 61347-2-10:2001+A1:2009 (E)Ge3 BSI 20112 Normative referencesFor the purpose of this part of IEC 61347, the normative references given in clause 2 ofIEC 61347-1 which are mentioned in this stand
