Standard

IEC 62384:2020 is available as IEC 62384:2020 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

IEC 62384:2020 specifies performance requirements for electronic controlgear for use on 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. 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:
- scope extension (direct current from 250 V to 1 000 V);
- new specifications for measuring the power factor for controlgear with settable/non-constant output (for instance, to allow for constant light output);
- deletion of audio frequency requirements;
- selection of current test circuit by module capacitance (instead of selecting by having or not having logic circuitry) plus test circuit setup changes.
