What are the safety requirements for table lamps exported to the UK?

This table is for readers’ reference only. The actual classification of the product must still be determined according to the purpose of the product and its usage environment.

Applied product safety standards precautions LED lamp indicator UL 48-handle lamps, kitchen cabinet lamps, table lamps, standing lamps, wall lamps, etc. (all with power cord plugs) UL 153 covers portable Christmas light string UL 588 - emergency indicator light, exit light UL 924 - display cabinet, mirror light UL 962 - stage light UL 1573 -Step lamps, chandeliers, ceiling lamps, chandeliers, wall lamps, street lamps, column lamps, etc. (all without power cord plugs) UL 1598 covers fixed lamps used in non-hazardous areas and installed on branch circuits below 600 V Upper night light UL 1786-low voltage garden light (without power cord plug) UL 1838-water pipe light UL 2388-LED light bulb indicator light bulb UL 496-LED light bulb (ANSI Base), including drive circuit UL 1993E27 Base is a European regulation and cannot For use in the North American market, the North American market requires E26 BaseLED bulbs (non-ANSI Base), which contain the drive circuit UL 496-LED module, and do not include the drive circuit UL 8750-LED driver power supply (can be equipped with LPS safety circuit) UL 60950 -1 output LPS safety loop, the LED module and LED control module do not require an electrical enclosure (Enclosure) power supply (without Class 2 safety loop) UL 1012 LED module and LED control module need to provide an appropriate electrical enclosure (Enclosure) ) Protection power supply (with Class 2 safety circuit) UL 1310 output Class 2 safety circuit, LED module and LED control module do not require an electrical enclosure (Enclosure) driver (can be equipped with LPS/Class 2 safety circuit) UL 935 output LPS / Class 2 safety circuit, the LED module and LED control module do not require an electrical enclosure (Enclosure). The low-voltage garden light power supply UL 1838 LED module and LED control module need to provide appropriate electrical enclosure (Enclosure) protection?6?1 Safety assessment and testing of Subject 8750

After having a rough understanding of the standards that each product should refer to, the following will briefly describe Subject 8750 that is complementary to the aforementioned standards. Subject 8750 has been updated to the 3rd revised edition. The content is divided into 12 chapters, of which Chapters 1 - 4 are general chapters including scope, definitions, etc.; Chapters 5 - 9 are: structural requirements; Chapters 10 - 11 Chapter 12: Testing and Evaluation; Chapter 12: Product Labeling. The following is a statement on the two major content structures of "structural requirements" and "testing and evaluation". However, we would like to remind readers that since the product usage and usage environment requirements of each safety standard are different, the degree of adoption of the provisions of Subject 8750 is naturally also different.

1. Structural requirements (Chapter 5 - 9)

1. Usage environment considerations: The product is used in different environments, such as dry (Dry), humid (Damp), outdoor ( Wet) and other places, safety standards will have different requirements for the distance between charged objects, plastic casing, testing, warning slogans (Marking), etc.

2. Mechanical structural requirements: This part first focuses on the safety requirements of the shell, focusing on fire protection, anti-electric shock, anti-collision and other properties; in addition, the thickness, anti-corrosion and plastic shell of the metal shell There are also requirements for physical properties, and other requirements include partitions, internal line protection, tensile strength, glue filling, etc.

3. Electrical structure requirements: including avoiding contact with dangerous live objects, exposed wiring terminals, internal wiring, connection between power supply end and load end, circuit isolation, use of insulating materials, printed circuits The specifications of the board, the spacing between live objects, electronic components, protective devices, and energy limits of Class 2 or LPS safety circuits are all within the scope of this part of the specification.

4. Other requirements: such as safety and enclosure requirements for LED power supplies, LED arrays, LED modules and LED control modules. The power supply for the LED can be a power supply certified by the following standards, including UL 1012, UL 1310 and UL 60950-1. Basically, LED arrays, LED modules, and LED control modules do not have any electrical enclosure requirements as long as they are located on an LPS/Class 2 safety loop. The power output mode of LED lamps is specified as basic insulation, which is the same as no isolation at all. For LED arrays, LED modules and LED control modules, if the power supply used does not exceed LPS/Class 2, it is recommended that it comply with LPS/Class 2. On the other hand, if the energy used will be greater than LPS/Class 2, there is no difference in the requirements for the plastic enclosure whether insulation is provided to isolate the primary side and secondary side power circuits.

2. Testing and Evaluation (Chapter 10 - 11)

In the test items of Subject 8750, the tests that UL often conducts on products are as follows: Input Test, Temperature rise test (LED Module Normal Operations Temperature Test), Dielectric Voltage Withstand Test (Dielectric Voltage Withstand Test), Abnormal Condition Tests (Abnormal Condition Tests), Electronic Component Abnormal Test (Unreliable Component Abnormal Test), 50-watt circuit measurement (50 -W Point Power Measurement Test) etc. 6?1 The latest product categories (CCN) of LED lamps

Because the application range of LED lamps is becoming more and more extensive, this year, UL has defined some new product categories (CCN) related to LED applications, such as OOQA2 (LED module, UL 8750), FKSZ (LED driver, UL935), OOLV (energy-saving light bulb, UL1993), QOVZ (portable LED lamp, UL153), QOVA (LED kitchen cabinet light, UL153), IFAM (LED Fixed lamps, UL1598), IFAO (LED lamps, UL1598), etc. Business operators can apply for UL safety regulations according to different product categories. Here are also examples of CCNs that are currently closely related to the industry, including OOQA2 and FKSZ
