Commission Regulation (EC) No 244/2009 of 18 March 2009 implementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for non-directional household lamps, amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 859/2009 of 18 September 2009 as regards the ecodesign requirements on ultraviolet radiation of non-directional household lamps
and
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 874/2012 of 12 July 2012 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to energy labelling of electrical lamps and luminaires
and
Commission Regulation (EU) No 1194/2012 of 12 December 2012 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for directional lamps, light emitting diode lamps and related equipment
(Publication of titles and references of transitional methods of measurement (1) for the implementation of Commission Regulation (EC) No 244/2009 amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 859/2009, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 874/2012, and Commission Regulation (EU) No 1194/2012)

For the purposes of verification of compliance with the requirements of Commission Regulation (EC) No 244/2009 amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 859/2009, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 874/2012, and Commission Regulation (EU) No 1194/2012 the following measurement procedures shall be used if:
— |
no other measurement procedures are specified in harmonised standards of which the reference numbers have been published for that purpose in the Official Journal of the European Union, (particularly, most of the mentioned EN standards are also ISO standards) |
— |
or no other specific measurement procedures for verification of compliance are referenced in the afore mentioned Regulations. |
The definitions of 'directional lamps' and 'non-directional lamps' in Article 2 of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1194/2012 shall apply.
1. |
In case no specific documents have been referenced for measured parameters, reliable, accurate and reproducible measurement procedures, which take into account generally recognised state-of-the-art measurement methods, shall be used. This includes but is not limited to the number of switching cycles, the rated lifetime for LEDs, and the premature failure rate of LEDs. |
2. |
Photometric parameters shall be measured according to prEN 13032-4 for LED lamps and modules (including colourimetric parameters), and EN 13032-1 for all other types. |
3. |
For non-directional lamps tests shall be carried out as follows:
|
4. |
For directional lamps tests shall be carried out as follows:
|
5. |
For control gear tests shall be carried out as follows:
|
6. |
The following reference documents shall be used:
