ANSI C78.81-2016 Page iii 2016 National Electrical Manufacturers Association AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by The American National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) that the requirements for due process, conse
13、nsus, 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 judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreemen
14、t 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 concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The existence o
15、f 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 standards. It is intended as a guide to aid the manufacturer, the consu
16、mer, and the general public. The American National Standards Institute, Inc., 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 authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Sta
17、ndard in the name of the American National Standards Institute, Inc. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on this title page. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the Am

30、ts forth the physical and electrical characteristics of the principal types of fluorescent lamps intended for application on conventional line frequency circuits and electronic high frequency circuits. Some data sheets may specify more than one circuit application. Specifications for the lamp itself
31、 and the interactive features of the lamp and ballast are given. Only double-based lamps of the regular linear shape are included. Single-based lamps, including compact, circular, square, and U-shaped, are found in ANSI C78.901. Lamps for conventional systems relying on auxiliary support from extern
32、al ballasts are described. These lamps are those designed for 60 Hz and/or high frequency operation. Lamp color is not specified herein. Certain lamp types covered in this standard may be similar to those in IEC 60081. However, additional types are included that are used only in North America and ar
33、e not specified in the IEC standard. 1.1 Important Patent Disclaimer At the time of publication, it is possible that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. When this standard was approved for publication, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) di

NEMA shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. 2 General There are four parts to this standard: Part I Contains requirements and general information. Detailed descriptions, references, and
35、 explanations of the terms used in the lamp data sheets are given. Defines the principles of dimensioning lamps, both as finished lamps and for maximum outline purposes. Part II Contains dimensioning principles and lamp outline drawings. Part III Contains the annexes. Part IV Contains the lamp data
36、sheets for the lamp classes covered in this standard. Sheets adopted from IEC are not included, but a source reference is listed. 2.1 Normative References The following standards contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this American National Standard. At the
37、 time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this American National Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.

43、dictionary ANSI/IEEE 100. 4 Lamp Abbreviations Lamp abbreviations for fluorescent lamps are not officially assigned through any administered designation system. Those used on the data sheets are assigned in accordance with the Guidelines of Annex A. There is no requirement for the use of these abbre
44、viations for lamp marking. For some lamp types, the referenced data sheet has been adopted from IEC publication 60081. These sheets do not contain a lamp abbreviation per Annex A. They are marked with an IEC designation code (ILCOS), but that code is not used in the U.S. 5 Methods of Measurement Ele
45、ctrical measurements necessary to determine the performance of lamps that are defined in this standard shall be made in accordance with the lamp measurements standard (ANSI C78.375). 6 Reference Ballasts Reference ballasts used for measurements of fluorescent lamps shall meet the general requirement
46、s set forth in the reference ballast standard (ANSI C82.3). It should be noted that the reference ballast standard requires a power factor of 0.075 0.005 for all fluorescent reference ballasts, unless otherwise specified on a lamp data sheet. Also note that rapid start reference ballasts called for
47、in this standard include 3.6V cathode heating. 7 Product Drawings The drawings included in Part II are product drawings that show the applications of the various coded dimensions that appear on the data sheets. Drawings are needed only to depict families of ANSI C78.81-2016 Page 3 2016 National Elec
48、trical Manufacturers Association lamps; the particular values vary within a family in accordance with the values on the relevant lamp data sheet. No attempt has been made to provide maximum outline drawings to show the space occupied by the lamps because the need for such has not been established. 8
49、 Application of Lamps on More Than One Type of Circuit Lamp manufacturers may form an industry consensus approving the use of a particular lamp type on more than one type of circuit. In such cases, the lamp data sheet will show the information for all of the appropriate circuits. 9 Lamp Physical and Dimensional Requirements 9.1 Bulb Specifications Each lamp data sheet in Part IV specifies the necessary bulb shape and tube diameter. Bulb shapes are defined in the bulb nomenclature standard (ANSI C79.1). Due to the
