Performance of LED replacements for tubular fluorescent lamps
1 Scope 1.1 Inclusions This Standard defines minimum energy efficiency and performance requirements for LED devices that have the general appearance, length, and base types of a conventional fluorescent lamp. These devices have the physical dimensions of a lamp as described in ANSI C78.81 or ANSI C78.901 are commonly known as LED tubular (TLED) lamps. The following TLED lamp constructions, described in CSA C22.2 No. 1993, are within the scope of this Standard: a) ballast-driven, non-integrated (commonly referred to as Type A); b) mains voltage-driven, integrated (commonly referred to as Type B); c) external driver-driven, non-integrated (commonly referred to as Type C); d) hybrid-type replacements that operate as more than one of the types listed in Items a) through c); e) CCT-selectable; f) connected; g) tunable white; and h) single-based U-shaped. Note: Safety requirements for LED replacement lamps are provided in CSA C22.2 No. 1993, C22.2 No. 250.1, and CSA C22.1. 1.2 Exclusions This Standard does not apply to: a) TLEDs with non-ANSI tubular fluorescent lamp connections; b) TLEDs in the non-visible spectrum (e.g., UV); and c) TLEDs intended for horticultural use. 1.3 Terminology In this Standard, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard. Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements. Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.
