NOTE 2 It should be taken care that the luminaire surface where the lampholder
is fixed to can withstand the bending moment. For the calculation of this
bending moment, the length of the lampholder needs to be taken into
account when measuring the overall length_ This should be made sure
for the elevated temperature during operation in order to check the pos­
sible softening of the surface material.
The lamp mass shall not exceed the value given in Table 2.

c) Lamps with B22d cap shall fulfil the same requirements as normal incandescent
lamps with this cap.
d) External metal parts other than the lamp cap shall not be live.
e) For testing, any movable conductive material shall be placed in the most onerous
position without using a tool.
f) Compliance is checked by means of the insulation resistance and electric strength
test (see clause 8) .

8 Insulation resistance and electric strength

8. 1 General
Insulation resistance and electric strength shall be adequate between live parts of
the lamp and accessible parts of the lamp.
During the test, heteropolar contacts of the cap shall be short-circuited. Accessible
parts of the lamp shall be covered with metal foil.
The lamp shall be conditioned for 48 h in a cabinet containing air with a relative hu­
midity between 91 % and 95 %. The temperature of the air is maintained within 1 °C of
any convenient value between 20 °C and 30 °C. The tests in 8.2 and 8.3 shall be per­
formed in a thermostatic bath under the above conditions.

8.2 Insulation resistance

The insulation resistance between live parts of the cap and accessible parts of the
lamp (accessible parts of insulating material are covered with metal foil) shall be not
less than 4 MQ.
Insulation resistance shall be measured with a DC voltage of approximately 500 V,
1 min after application of the voltage.
The requirements of JIS C 8147- 1, Annex A, shall be complied with.

8.3 Electric strength

Immediately after the insulation resistance test (8.2), the same parts as specified
above shall withstand a voltage test for 1 min with an a.c. voltage or a d.c. voltage equal
to the peak voltage of the prescribed a.c. voltage as follows.
Initially, no more than half the voltage prescribed in Table 2A is applied between the -----------------

contacts and the metal foil. It is then gradually raised to the full value. Care shall be
taken that the metal foil is so placed that no flashover occurs at the edges of the insu­
lation.

suitable means for measuring torque over a wide range of failure levels.
Compliance:
The cap shall remain firmly attached to the bulb or that part of the lamp which is
used for inserting or removing the lamp when subjected to the torque levels listed in
Table 3 above. Some lamps are made with parts designed to be moved after insertion
(for example a light sensor or decorative ring). Movement of these parts does not con­
stitute non-compliance.
In the case of un-cemented caps, relative movement between cap and bulb is permit­
ted provided it does not exceed 10°.

9.3 Compliance criteria

After the mechanical strength test of 9.2, the sample shall comply with the require­
ments of accessibility (see clause 8) .

9.4 Axial strength of Edison caps

The lamps shall be screwed into gauge of Table 4 . After full insertion, an axial force
of Table 4 (force applied in the direction of the arrow shown in Figure 5) is applied to
the central contact. See Figure 5.
In case axial strength of the cap does not decrease when the unmounted cap was as­
sembled to the finished lamp, test results on the unmounted cap can be applied.
NOTE : The gauges are used to hold the lamp. Calibration is not required.
Compliance:

After this test, the insulation around the central contact shall remain intact. The
application of the torque test in 9.2.1 shall not lead to impressing the bottom part of the

PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT
 15
c 8156: 2017

a) The test is made in a heating cabinet at a temperature of (25 ± 5) °C in excess of

the operating temperature of the relevant part according to clause 10, with a mini­
mum of 125 °C for parts retaining live parts in position and 80 °C for other parts.
b) The surface of the part to be tested is placed in the horizontal position, left in a
heating cabinet for 10 min for stabilization, and a steel ball of 5 mm diameter is
pressed against this surface with a force of 20 N. If necessary, the surface shall be
supported so that the surface pressed with a steel ball is not bent during the test.
c) The test cannot be made on the complete specimen, a suitable part may be cut from
it, or the material used in the part to be tested may be formed into a separate speci-

men. The specimen shall be at least 2.5 mm thick, but if such a thickness is not
available on the specimen, then two or more pieces are placed together.
d) After 1 h, the ball is removed from the specimen, which is then immersed for 10 s
in cold water for cooling down to approximately room temperature.
e) The diameter of impression measured, and shall not exceed 2 mm. In the event of
curved surfaces, the shorter axis is measured if the indent is elliptical. In case of
doubt, the depth of the impression (p) is measured and the diameter (¢) calculated
using the formula.

</> = 2�p (5 - p)
where, p : depth of impression (mm)
¢ : diameter of impression (mm)

12 Resistance to flame and ignition

Parts of insulating material retaining live parts in position and external parts of
insulating material providing protection against electric shock are subjected to the glow­
wire test in accordance with JIS C 60695-2- 10, JIS C 60695-2 - 1 1 , JIS C 60695-2-12
and JIS C 60695-2- 13, subject to the following details. The test is not made on parts of
ceramic material.
a) The test specimen is a complete lamp.
b) It may be necessary to take away parts of the lamp to perform the test, but care is
taken to ensure that the test conditions are not significantly different from those
occurring in normal use.
c) The test specimen is mounted on the carriage and pressed against the glow-wire tip
with a force of 1 N, preferably 15 mm or more, from the upper edge, into the centre
of the surface to be tested.
d) The penetration of the glow-wire into the specimen is mechanically limited to 7 mm.
e) If it is not possible to make the test on a specimen as described above because the
specimen is too small, the above test is made on a separate specimen of the same
material, 30 mm square and with a thickness equal to the smallest thickness of the
specimen.
f) The temperature of the tip of the glow-wire is 650 °C.
g) After 30 s, the specimen is withdrawn from contact with the glow-wire tip.

PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT
16
c 8156: 2017

h) The glow-wire temperature and heating current are constant for 1 min prior to com­
mencing the test.
i) Care is taken to ensure that heat radiation does not influence the specimen during
this period.
j) The glow-wire tip temperature is measured by means of a sheathed fine-wire ther­
mocouple constructed and calibrated as described in JIS C 60695-2-10.
Any flame or glowing of the specimen shall extinguish within 30 s of withdraw­
ing the glow-wire, and any flaming drop shall not ignite a piece of the wrapping
tissue, spread out horizontally 200 mm± 5 mm below the specimen. The wrapping
tissue is specified in 6228 of JIS P 0001.

13 Fault conditions

13.1 General requirements

The lamps shall not impair safety when operated under fault conditions which may
occur during the intended use.

13.2 Test conditions

The following fault conditions are applied in turn, as well as any other associated
fault conditions that may arise from it as logical consequences. Only one component at
a time is subjected to a fault condition.
Opening or bridging component in the circuit where the diagram or construction in­
dicates that such a fault condition may impair safety.
Examination of the lamp and its circuit diagram will generally show the fault condi­
tions which should be applied. These are applied in sequence in the order that is most
convenient.
Components or devices in which a short-circuit does not occur shall not be bridged.
Similarly, components or devices in which an open circuit cannot occur shall not be in­
terrupted.
Manufacturers or responsible vendors shall produce evidence that the components be­
have in a way that does not impair safety, for instance, by showing compliance with the
relevant specification.
Compliance is checked by operating the sample free burning, vertical cap up posi­
tion at room temperature and at the most critical test voltage between 90 % and 110 %
of the rated voltage.
In case a rated voltage range is declared, the test has to be carried out at the most
critical test voltage between 90 % and 110 % of the mean voltage of that declared range
or at the most critical test voltage within the declared voltage range, whatever range is
greater.
In case of alternative rated voltages the test shall be performed separately for each
rated voltages .
Example 1 Declared voltage range: 220 V to 240 V: Test voltage within 207 V to
253 V (90 % to 110 % of 230 V is wider than declared range).

PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT
 17
c 8156: 2017

Example 2 Declared voltage range: 170 V to 280 V: Test voltage within 170 V to
280 V ( 90 % to 110 % of 225 V is wider than declared range).

13.3 Compliance
Compliance is checked by operating the sample free burning at room temperature
and at the most critical test voltage until stable conditions have been reached, then in­
troducing the fault condition. The sample is then tested for a further 8 h. During this
test it shall not catch fire, or produce flammable gases and live parts shall not become
accessible.
To check if accessible parts have become live, a test in accordance with clause 7 is
made. The insulation resistance (see 8.1) is checked with a d.c. voltage of approximately
1 000 V.

14 Creepage distances and clearances

The requirements of Section 11 of JIS C 8 105- 1 apply except that for the creepage
distances and clearance of internal parts JIS C 8147-1 is applicable.

15 Abnormal operation
Self-ballasted lamps shall not create hazard under abnormal operating conditions.
Self-ballasted lamps shall be constructed so that as a result of abnormal or careless
operation, the risk of fire and mechanical damage impairing safety of protection against
electric shock is obviated.
Applying non-dimmable self-ballasted lamps on a dimmer or an electronic switch is
to be tested as a possible case of abnormal operation.
Test procedure:
Test non-dimmable lamp in test circuit shown in Figure 6.
Determine Rl and Sl setting at which the maximum Ir.m.s. occurs.
Test at this situation, and if the lamp passively fails within 60 min, repeat the test
at 10 % lower Ir.m.s.· The lower Ir.m.s. shall be set in the decreasing potentiometer resis­
tance direction.
Repeat this procedure until stable operation is achieved for minimum 60 min.
Operate the lamp for 8 h at the above most onerous dimming level (potentiometer
adjustment).
Compliance:
Compliance is checked by operating the sample free burning, vertical cap up posi­
tion or in the burning position indicated on the packaging at room temperature and at
the rated voltage.
In case a voltage range is declared, the test has to be carried out at the mean volt­
age of that declared range.
In case of alternative rated voltages, the test shall be performed separately for each
rated voltage.
During this test the lamp shall not catch fire, or produce flammable gases and live
parts shall not become accessible with the standard test finger specified in clause 7.
