𝐸𝐸𝐼 = 𝑃𝑐𝑜𝑟
𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑓 
 
Pcor is defined as:  
For models without  external control gear, Pcor is the rated power ( 𝑃𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑). 
 
For models with external control gear  Pcor is the rated power ( 𝑃𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑) corrected in accordance 
with the corrections factors listed below:  
 
The rated power 𝑃𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 of the lamps /luminaires  is measured at their nominal input voltage.

ANNEX K – Measurement of the mercury content for fluorescent 
lamps  
 
K.1 – Default method for measurement  
 
Lamp samples shall be prepared for measurement according to IEC62554 “Sample 
preparation for measurement of mercury level in fluorescent lamps”  45 
 
 The average mercury content has to be measured in accordance with the CV AAS method 
as described in  EN 62321 -4 “Determination of certain substances in electro technical  
products – Part 4: Mercury in polymers, metals and electronics by CV -AAS, CV -AFS, ICP -
OES and ICP -MS" 
 
K.2 - Alternative method for measurement of the mercury content  
 
The following method is accepted as an alternative to IEC 62554 and IEC 62321 -4 for the 
measurement of the mercury content  
 
The applicant shall provide a test report stating that the mercury content has been measured 
using the method described below. The repor t shall state the average mercury content, 
calculated by analyzing ten lamps, and then deleting the highest and lowest values before 
calculating the arithmetic mean of the remaining eight values.  
 
The test method for the mercury content is as follows. The arc tube is first separated from its 
plastic surrounds and associated electronics. The associated lead wires are cut as close to 
the glass seal as possible. The arc tube is taken to a fume cupboard and is cut into 
segments. The segments are pl aced in a suitably sized robust screw -capped plastic bottle to 
which is added a 1 inch diameter porcelain ball and 25 ml of high purity concentrated nitric 
acid (70 %). The bottle is sealed and shaken for a few minutes to reduce the arc tube to fine 
partic le size, the stopper is periodically loosened to eliminate any possibility of pressure 
build -up. The contents of the bottle are allowed to react for 30 minutes during which time the 
contents are periodically agitated. The contents of the bottle are then fi ltered through an acid 
resistant filter paper and collected in a 100 ml graduated volumetric flask. Potassium 
dichromate is then added to the flask so that the final concentration is 1000 ppm with respect 
to chromium. The flask is then made up to volume wi th pure water. Matched standards are 
made up on a concentration range up to 200 ppm mercury. The solutions are analyzed using 
flame atomic absorption at a wavelength of 253 .7 nm with background correction on. From 
the results obtained and knowledge of the solution volume, the original mercury content of 
the light bulb can be computed. The competent body may agree adaptations to the details of 
this test method if they are necessary for technical reasons, and these shall be applied in a 
consistent manner.   46 
 
 ANNEX L – Energy efficiency for (integrated) luminaires  
 
L.1 - Types of luminaires  
 
Definitions for the different types of luminaires are presented in Clause 3  
Luminaires within the scope of this regulation (integrated luminaires) are characterized as 
direct  or indirect lighting sources depending of the beam angle of the light emission.  
 
For information only, luminaire s can be identified per type of use as expressed in Table 34  
 
Table 33: Use types for luminaires (informative)  
Terms  Description  Content  
LT_1  General (artificial) lighting  Lighting designed to provide an  uniform level of 
illumination  
LT_2  Local lighting  Lighting designed to provide designed level of 
illumination over a specific area surrounding 
with lower illumination from spilled light 
source(s)  
LT_3  Accent lighting  Lighting that calls attention or adds interest to a 
particular object or unusual feature or interest 
of a room. Highlights, emphasizes illumination 
with a strong light from behind in order to 
embrace depth or to separate the object from 
the background, sidelights is highlights coming 
from the side.  
LT_4  Task lighting  Lighting designed to provide a strong 
illumination for visually demanding activities. It 
needs to be glare -free. Effective task lighting 
enhances visual clarity and keeps the eyes 
from getting tired.  
LT_5  Ambient lighting  An ambient source of light that washes the 
room with a glow. It flattens an interior and 
create s very little shadow.  
LT_6  Aesthetic lighting  Lighting as a piece of art. A neon sculpture 
would be purely decorative and illustrates 
aesthetic lighting.   
LT_7  Natural lighting  Lighting provided without any artificial lighting 
sources  
 
L.2 - Minimum E fficacy  for luminaire s 
 
The minimum energy effic acy for luminaires are reported in Table 35, depending on the total 
power of the luminaires . 
 
Table 34: Minimum energy effic acy for  (MEPS)  Luminaires

Prated ≥ 15 W  ≥ 70 Lumen/Watt  47 
 
  
L.3 - Energy  Efficiency Index for luminaires (EEI)  
 
The energy efficiency for luminaires is calculated as for the EEI for lamps of the same 
category ( directional  or non-directional ) according respectively to Annex C for non-directional  
luminaires and E for directional  luminaires , based on illum inance (Lumen) and Power 
deducted from the Energy Efficacy.  
 
For the calculation of the energy efficiency index (EEI) of a mo del, its corrected (electric) 
power P cor for any control gear losses is compared with its reference power P ref (based on 
the luminous flux emitted).  
The EEI is calculated as follows and rounded to two decimal places.  
𝐸𝐸𝐼 = 𝑃𝑐𝑜𝑟
𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑓 
 
Pcor is defined as:  
For models without  external control gear, P cor is the rated power ( 𝑃𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑).

𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑓 is the reference power obtained from the useful luminous flux of the model ( 𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒) by the 
following formulae:  
For models with 𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒 < 1300 lumen: 𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑓=0.88√𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒+0.049 ×𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒  
For models with 𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒  ≥ 1300 lumen: 𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑓=0.07341 ×𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒 
For non -directional lamps, the useful luminous flux ( 𝛷𝑢𝑠𝑒) is the total rated luminous flux ( 𝛷).  
L.4 - Classification of Energy Efficiency Index for (integrated) luminaires (EEI)  
The energy efficiency rating of luminaires shall be determined on the basis of their energy 
efficiency index (EEI) as outlined in Table 37.

ANNEX M – Criteria for market surveillance  
 
For purposes of market surveillance, it might be drawn a sample of batch (based on each 
parameter listed in table 38) of the same model from the same manufacturer, where possible 
obtained in equal proportion from four r andomly selected sources.  
• The lamps in the batch are accompanied by the required and correct product 
information,  
• All parameters listed in Table 38 are met  
 
 
Table 37: Criteria applying for market surveillance  
Parameter  Procedure  
Energy 
efficiency index1 Compliance: The Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) value for lamps  
in the scope of this Standard shall be less than or equal to the 
specified values in Tables 2 and 8, when calculated at both 
rated and average tested  power and luminous flux. 
Furthermore, the average EEI of the sample tested should be 
not higher than 10% of the rated EEI, and each lamp in the 
sample should have an EEI value within 10% of the sample’s 
average EEI.  
For Luminaires the MEPS for Energy Efficacy shall be 
respected for each product; furthermore, the average efficacy 
of the sample tested should not be lower 10% of the rated 
efficacy (in Lumen/W), and each luminaire in the sample 
should have an efficacy value within 10% of the sample’s 
average efficacy.  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Lamp survival 
factor at 6000 h The test shall end  
• when the required number of hours is met, or  
 
1 The tolerances for variation indicated above relate only to the verification of the measured 
parameters by the authorities and shall not be used by the supplier as an allowed tolerance 
on the values in the technical documentation to achieve a more efficien t energy class.  
The declared values shall not be more favorable for the supplier than the values reported in 
the technical documentation.  49 
 
 (for LED lamps 
only)  • when more than two lamps fail, whichever occurs first  
Compliance: a maximum of two out of every 20 lamps in the test 
batch may fail before the required number of hours  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Number of 
switching cycles 
before failure  The test shall end when the required number of switching cycles 
is reached, or when more than one out of every 20 lamps in the  
test batch have reached the end of their life, whichever occurs 
first 
Compliance: at least 19 of every 20 lamps in the batch have no 
failure after the required number of switching cycles is reached  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Starting time  Compliance: the  average starting time of the lamps in the test 
batch is not higher than the required starting time plus 10 %, 
and no lamp in the sample batch has a starting time longer than 
two times the required starting time  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Lamp warm -up 
time to 60 % Φ  Compliance: the average warm -up time of the lamps in the test 
batch is not higher than the required warm -up time plus 10%, 
and no lamp in the sample batch has a warm -up time that 
exceeds the required warm -up time multiplied by 1.5 
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Premature 
failure rate  The test shall end  
• when the required number of hours is met, or  
• when more than one lamp fails, whichever occurs first.

(Ra)  Compliance: the average Ra of the lamps in the test batch is 
not lower than three points below the required value, and no 
lamp in the test batch has a Ra value that is mor e than 3,9 
points below the required value  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Lumen 
maintenance at 
end of life and 
rated lifetime (for 
LED lamps only)  For these purposes, ‘end of life’ shall mean the point in time 
when only 50 % of the lamps are projected to survive or when 
the average lumen maintenance of the batch is projected to fall 
below 70 %, whichever is projected to occur first  
Compliance: the lumen maintenance at end of life and the 
lifetime values obtained by extrapolation from the lamp survival 
factor and from the average lumen maintenance of the lamps in 
the test batch at 6000 h are not lower than respectively the 
lumen maintenance and the rated lifetime values declared in 
the product information minus 10 %  
Non-compliance: otherwise  
Equivalence 
claims for retrofit 
lamps according 
to Annex G  If only the equivalence claim is verified for compliance, it is 
sufficient to test 10 lamps, where possible obtained 
approximately in equal proportion from four randomly selected 
sources
