Svetilke - 2-22. del: Posebne zahteve - Svetilke za zasilno razsvetljavo (IEC 60598-2-22:2014)

Ta del standarda IEC 60598 določa zahteve za svetilke za zasilno razsvetljavo za uporabo z zasilnimi napajalnimi sistemi, ki ne presegajo napetosti 1000 V. Ta del ne zajema učinkov zmanjšanja napetosti v primerih, ki niso nujni, na visokotlačne razelektrilne svetilke. Ta del določa splošne zahteve za opremo za zasilno razsvetljavo. V tem delu se še vedno uporablja izraz »svetilka«, ki zajema tudi »vir(e) svetlobe«, kjer je to ustrezno.

A-deviations

A-deviation: National deviation due to regulations, the alteration of which is for the time being outside
the competence of the CEN-CENELEC national member.

This European Standard falls under Directive 2006/95/EC.

NOTE (from CEN-CENELEC IR Part 2:2011, 2.17) Where standards fall under EU Directives, it is the view of
the Commission of the European Communities (OJ No C 59; 1982-03-09) that the effect of the decision of
the Court of Justice in case 815/79 Cremonini/Vrankovich (European Court Reports 1980, p. 3583) is
that compliance with A- deviations is no longer mandatory and that the free movement of products
be restricted except under the safeguard procedure provided for
complying with such a standard should not
in the relevant Directive.

A-deviations in an EFTA-country are valid instead of the relevant provisions of the European
Standard in that country until they have been removed.

LUMINAIRES –

Part 2-22: Particular requirements –
Luminaires for emergency lighting

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60598-2-22 has been prepared by subcommittee 34D: Luminaires
of IEC technical committee 34: Lamp and related equipment.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 1997, AMD1:2002 and
AMD2:2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) Clause 22.3, addition of definitions for PELF and Self-contained portable emergency
luminaire;
b) Clause 22.5, updated with the introduction of requirements for non-replaceable lamp and
batteries;

c) Clause 22.6, improved requirements to confirm that the charge indication is correctly
connected to the circuit together with other clarifications regarding the controlgear and the
remote box with its connecting cabe to the emergency luminaire;
d) Clause 22.12, improved requirements to ensure that the luminaire shall not become
unsafe;
e) Clause 22.16, full revision of the photometric testing to align with ISO and CIE;
f) Clause 22.17, now only references the requirements which are now covered in
IEC 61347-2-7;
g) Clause 22.19, now only references the requirements which are now covered in
IEC 61347-2-7;
h) Annex A, now includes nickel metal hydride batteries and reference to cell types in
IEC 61951-1;
i) Annex B, minor changes to the classifications;
j) Annex C, Figure C.1 deleted in favour of a revised text;
k) Annex E, the additional requirements covering self-contained portable emergency
luminaires
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
34D/1119/FDIS 34D/1131/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
This standard is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60598-1 Luminaires – Part 1: General
requirements and tests.
A list of all parts in the IEC 60598 series, published under the general title Luminaires, can be
found on the IEC website.
In this standard, the following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type
– test specifications: in italic type
– notes: in small roman type.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
