3、s verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. An American National Standard implies a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the j
4、udgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a
5、 concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The existence of an American National Standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether s/he has approved the standard or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the stand
6、ards. It is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consumer, and the general public. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard. Moreover, no person shall have the right or autho
7、rity to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the Committee Secretariat referred to on the title page. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or wi
8、thdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard.

Definitions 3.1 General See ANSI C82.13 for
23、related definitions. Any standards referenced in those definitions should be considered as normative for the standard. Other definitions used in this standard follow. 3.2 Lumen maintenance The luminous flux at a given time in the life of the lamp and expressed as a percentage of the initial luminous
24、 flux. The mean lumens are the value at 40% of rated life. 3.3 Starting temperatures The minimum and maximum temperatures at which the lamp will reliably start. 4. Requirements 4.1 General Self-ballasted compact fluorescent lamps shall be so constructed that, in normal use, they are without danger t
25、o the user and the general surroundings. Electrical and photometric performance of compact fluorescent lamps can be appreciably affected by drafts, ambient temperature, and burning position. For proper measurements of these characteristics, the requirements of clause 4, Ambient conditions, and claus
26、e 8, Lamp stabilization, in ANSI C78.375 must be met. Photometric procedures are covered under clauses 9,10, and 11 of IESNA LM-66. The lamps shall be stabilized base-up at 25oC. 4.2 Marking The unit shall be marked in accordance with clause 27 of UL1993, Standard for safety, Self-ballasted Lamps an
27、d Lamp Adaptors. 4.3 Other markings 4.3.1 The unit shall include instructions per clause 28 of UL1993 if so required. 4.3.2 A warning regarding possible interaction with IR remote controls may be needed on the packaging of some units. 4.3.3 If the luminous flux in other burning positions varies by m
28、ore than 5% from the rated position it shall be marked on the packaging. 4.4 Electro-magnetic interference Units with electronic high frequency circuits shall comply with FCC regulations, Title 47 of the US Code of Federal Regulations, Part 18 for Consumer equipment. For units with electronic high f
29、requency circuits operating below 1.705 MHz, radiated measurements shall be made from 30 to 200 MHz and be under the limits specified in FCC Part 18.305c. Copyright 2003 by American National Standard Lighting Group NEMA 6ANSI C78.5-2003 Revision of C78.5-1997 4.5 Color rendering index Self-ballasted
30、 compact fluorescent lamps shall have a minimum rated CRI of 80 when measured in accordance with CIE Publication 13.3. The CRI value of an individual unit shall not be less than the rated value decreased by three. 4.6 Input power The input to the unit at rated supply voltage shall not exceed the rat
31、ed value by more than 10% plus 0.5 watts. 4.7 Starting time The time to start when tested at the rated supply voltage in a 25+/-50C ambient shall not exceed 2 seconds for electronic high frequency units and 4 seconds for magnetic units. The time to start for these units when tested at 90% of the rat
32、ed supply voltage and at the minimum specified starting temperature shall not exceed 5 and 10 seconds respectively. Guidance for the measurement of starting time is given in Annex A. 4.8 Run-up time The run-up time shall not exceed 3 minutes when tested at rated supply voltage in an ambient of 25 C.
33、 4.9 Luminous Flux The initial luminous flux of the units tested shall average not less than 90% of the rated value. 4.10 Lumen Maintenance The lumen maintenance at 40% of rated life shall not be less than 80%. 4.11 Efficacy The minimum rated efficacy of a self-ballasted compact fluorescent lamp sha
34、ll be at least 40 lpw. 4.12 Lifetest Lifetesting shall be done in accordance with the requirements on clauses 2, 3.2, 3.4, 5, and 6 of IESNA LM-65. 4.13 Power Quality The requirements for this product as specified in C82.77 shall be met. 4.14 Lamp current operating frequency To limit incompatibility
35、 with infrared remote controls, the lamp current operating frequency shall be greater than 40 kHz for units with electronic high frequency circuits. These frequencies shall be met under all stable normal operating conditions including dimming. Copyright 2003 by American National Standard Lighting Gr
36、oup NEMA 7ANSI C78.5-2003 Revision of C78.5-1997 4.15 Line transient requirements Electronic high-frequency ballasts are more susceptible to line transients than line frequency magnetic ballasts. Therefore, transient protection shall be included when lamps use electronic ballasts. The requirement fo
37、r this transient protection is ANSI/IEEE C62.41, Class A1 minimum with the voltage increased to 2500Vpeak. The line transient test shall consist of seven strikes of a 100KHz Ring Wave, 2500Vp level, for differential mode. The transient generator effective output impedance shall be 30 ohms maximum an
38、d the peak current shall be 83A minimum. 5. Selection of test specimens 5.1 Lamps shall be selected so as to ensure proper representation of the current design. 5.2 At least 3 specimens shall be procured for each sample. It is prudent to select one or more additional specimens to serve as potential
39、replacements in the event of breakage or if the specimens become defective during the test for reasons not connected to the test, or if one or more specimens exhibit abnormal behavior or fail to stabilize. 6. Tests 6.1 General 6.1.1 Each test shall be performed at least once with each of the three s
40、pecimens. Each specimen shall meet the described test criteria. 6.1.2 If a specimen breaks or becomes defective for reasons not as a result of the testing, the specimen shall be discarded. Similarly if a unit fails to stabilize or exhibits abnormal behavior, the lamp shall be discarded. Testing shal
41、l resume with a suitable replacement specimen procured and prepared in the same manner as the original specimen. The use of replacement specimens shall be documented in the test report. 6.2 Power supply For other than lifetests, the voltage to the unit under test shall meet the requirements of claus
42、e 3, supply voltage characteristics in ANSI C78.375. 6.3 Electrical instruments The electrical instruments used in the testing shall meet the requirements of clause 9, Instruments. in ANSI C78.375. 6.4 Lifetest Tests to establish life ratings require a larger sample size. Guidance is given in IESNA
43、LM-65 and the requirements cited above must be met. Copyright 2003 by American National Standard Lighting Group NEMA 8ANSI C78.5-2003 Revision of C78.5-1997 ANNEX A (Informative) Guidance for the measurement of lamp starting time 1. Lamps shall be off and shall be stored at the specified ambient tes
44、t temperature for at least 12 hours prior to the test. 2. No starting aid plane shall be used for the test. 3. The recommended method to detect lamp starting is to monitor lamp light output. 4. A photodetector must be located such that it will adequately respond to the lamp light output. Shielding f
45、rom extraneous light may be required. 5. The laboratory should establish a responsive and repeatable set-up with their equipment and a documented test procedure prior to the test. This may include a qualification procedure for the operator. 6. Some lamps may contain a mercury amalgam that will delay
46、 the rise to full light output. This should not be interpreted as a delay in the starting time. The lamp should be considered as fully lighted if it is operating at essentially full current even if the light output is not uniform throughout the bulb. 7. A digital storage scope is recommended for mon
47、itoring the time from application of the test voltage and the output of the photo detector and the lamp input current. 8. Monitoring the lamp input current and/or wattage can also be an accurate method to test starting time but it may require more knowledge of lamps and judgement on the part of the
48、operator. This alternate is acceptable if correlation to the recommended method is documented.
