FAQs for LED Lamps

Q.1.How to carry out the Photometric test (for the purpose of CRS) for fixed General Purpose LED Luminaires as per IS 10322 (Part 5 / Sec 1) : 2012 on LED luminaries / lamps since the parameters in the cross referred standard are not defined to cover LEDs and there is no Indian Standard to indicate method of test for photometry of LED Luminaires? Further, standard LED lamps are also not available?

Photometric test shall stand exempted for the purpose of CRS as the scope of existing Indian Standard IS 13383 (Part 1) does not cover such products.

Q.2.Are LED Bulbs with B22/E27/E14 caps only covered under CRS?

LED Bulbs with all type of caps mentioned in Amendment No. 2 to IS 16102 (Part 1): 2012 'Self Ballasted LED Lamps for General Lighting Services' - Safety Requirements are covered under the order.
