7.                                          ALTERNATIVE STANDARDS

7.1.                                    The technical requirements of any of the editions of United Nations Regulation No. 37 - UNIFORM PROVISIONS CONCERNING THE APPROVAL OF FILAM.ENT LAMPS FOR USE IN APPROVED LAMP UNITS OF POWER-DRIVEN VEHICLES AND OF THEIR TRAILERS.

7.2.                                    Filament lamps conforming to FMVSS 108 Lamps Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment, SAE J573 Dec89 Miniature Lamp Bulbs and JIS C 7506 – 1994 Lamp Bulbs for Motor Vehicles, may be used in lighting and light signalling devices in which case the photometric test must be conducted as referenced in paragraphs 6.2 and 6.3 using either

7.2.1.                              a standard filament lamp which has been selected as specified in the relevant standard referenced in clause 7.2 above; or

7.2.2.                              where selection of standard filament lamp is not addressed in the standard chosen from those required in clause 7.2 above, then the light and light signalling device must be capable of meeting those photometric requirements using any of the filament lamps of the selected type that conform to the specifications in that standard.

8.                                          NOTES
