LED MODULES – PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
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.
This redline version of the official IEC Standard allows the user to identify the changes
made to the previous edition. A vertical bar appears in the margin wherever a change
has been made. Additions are in green text, deletions are in strikethrough red text.
– 4 – IEC 62384:2020 RLV IEC 2020
International Standard IEC 62384 has been prepared by subcommittee 34C: Auxiliaries for
lamps, of IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006 and
Amendment 1:2009. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) scope extension (direct current from 250 V to 1 000 V);
b) new specifications for measuring the power factor for controlgear with settable/non-
constant output (for instance, to allow for constant light output);
c) deletion of audio frequency requirements;
d) selection of current test circuit by module capacitance (instead of selecting by having or
not having logic circuitry) plus test circuit setup changes.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
34C/1488/FDIS 34C/1489/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
This document is to be read in conjunction with IEC 61347-2-13.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
IMPORTANT – The 'colour inside' logo on the cover page of this publication indicates
that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct
understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this publication using a
colour printer.
DC OR AC SUPPLIED ELECTRONIC CONTROLGEAR FOR
LED MODULES – PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
1 Scope
This document specifies performance requirements for electronic controlgear for use on d.c.
supplies up to 250 V and a.c. DC or AC supplies up to 1 000 V (alternating current at 50 Hz or
60 Hz) and with an output frequency which can deviate from the supply frequency, associated
with LED modules according to IEC 62031. Controlgear for LED modules specified in this
document are designed to provide constant voltage or current. Deviations from the pure
voltage and current types do not exclude the gear from this document.
NOTE 1 The tests in this document are type tests. Requirements for testing individual controlgear during
production are not included.
NOTE 2 Requirements for controlgear which incorporate means for varying the output power are under
consideration.
NOTE 3 It may can be expected that controlgear complying with this document will ensure satisfactory operation
between 92 % and 106 % of the rated supply voltage, taking into account the specifications of the LED module
manufacturer.
