TRANSCRIPT
UL answered the call by carefully
considering the needs of the manufacturers
and looked at the future market direction
and came up with an approach that offers
excellent flexibility to the Surface-mounted
luminaires.
The approach is a quick path to obtain
UL Certification for LED Surface-mounted
luminaires designs that incorporate the use
of bi-pin lampholders and LED tube lamps
as the light source. This approach to UL
Certification has been developed in response
to the increasing demand for these types of
LED luminaires in the marketplace and the
overwhelming interest from manufacturers
to build these types of Surface-mounted
luminaire at the factory.
LED tube lamps offer a convenient solution
to luminaire manufacturers that have
been in business for many years building
Surface-mounted fluorescent luminaires
that are designed to use T12, T8 and T5
fluorescent tube lamps. Through a very
simple manufacturing process, fluorescent
tube lamp luminaire designs can be
converted from fluorescent light source
UL Offers Quick Path to Obtain Listing for LED Surface- mounted Luminaires That Employ LED Tube LampsSurface-mounted luminaire manufacturers have been looking for ways to incorporate LED technology into existing luminaire designs.

The Sign Components Manual, also known
as the SAM, is applicable to manufacturers
covered under UL’s Listing and Follow-Up
Services for Electric Signs (UXYT/7) and
Field-Assembled Skeletal Neon Sign and
Outline Lighting Systems (UZBL/7), and for
use by UL Representatives performing UL
Follow-Up Service inspection.
This Manual authorizes manufacturers to
use certain UL Recognized Components,
Classified Components and other non-Listed
products*, when they are used under:
1. The conditions expressed for the
components in this Manual
2. The installation instructions for the
component
3. The requirements expressed in the
Follow-Up Service Procedure, the
associated Follow-Up and Inspection
Instructions (FUII Pages) and the UL
Standard for Electric Signs (UL 48).
The SAM supports UL’s General
Coverage Sign program by helping Sign
manufacturers locate and source sign
materials and components that have
already been tested by UL specifically for
use in electric signs. It includes components
for Neon, LED and an assortment of other
components commonly used in signs.
* Not covered by this manual, are non-Listed
component materials that do not
require additional authorization because
requirements regarding their suitability
and conditions of use are found in the UL
Standard for Electric Signs (UL 48). Some
examples are sheet metal, glass and
thermoplastic diffusers (except those used to
enclosure wiring and current-carrying parts).
UL continuously updates this manual
and makes the current version available.
Updated versions of this manual are
distributed periodically to all subscribers to
UL’s Listing Service and Follow-Up Services
for Electric Signs (UXYT/7), Field-Assembled
Skeletal Neon Sign and Outline Lighting
Systems (UZBL/7), and subscribers to UL’s

SAM Manual 2014, Updates Now Available
By John Gallo / Product Safety Engineer
Obtain Listing for LED Luminaires (continued from cover)
technology to LED light source technology
using a UL Classified LED Retrofit Conversion
Kit of a type that includes either line voltage
connected LED tube lamps having internal
LED Drivers or, low voltage LED tube lamps
and a separate LED Driver. Through the
unique combination of the Surface-mounted
fluorescent tube lamp luminaire design and
the factory installation of a UL Classified LED
retrofit Conversion kit, there is no longer a
need to conduct a temperature test on the
final product. This is possible based on testing
previously conducted on the UL Classified
Retrofit Conversion Kit. Since there is no
need to conduct a temperature test, this
Surface-mounted luminaire type is eligible
for coverage under UL‘s General Coverage
program, similar to what is offered by UL for
Surface-mounted fluorescent luminaires that
use tube lamps and bi-pin lampholders.
This approach to UL Certification for LED
surface-mounted luminaires employing LED
tube lamps offers a unique cost effective
solution to luminaire manufacturers by
offering flexibility in product design and by
helping get products to market quickly.
We are working to implement the program as
quickly as possible and anticipate being able
to formally launch the Certification offering
by early Q2.

Updates to IEC 60598
After long work at the technical committee SC34D, the Final Draft (FDIS) of the 8th edition of the general standard for luminaires IEC 60598-1 has been released. The official publication of the standard is anticipated for release at the end of the first quarter of this year.
The milestone of the new standard was
made back to March 2010. The IEC standard
went through the development process
in parallel with the European organism
CENELEC. As usual as soon the standard
will be published all the luminaires
submitted for IEC CB scheme certification
shall be tested with the new edition of
the standard. CB certificates based on the
previous edition have to be updated as well.
While for the CENELEC version, there will be
a transition period of 36 months form the
Date of Publication of the EN standard.
The introduction of LED lighting technology
has required a series of modifications to
the luminaires standard for adapting the
problems of construction and problems
of the test. This new edition to the
standard contains about 43 amended
parts including:
• Changes more restrictive than the
previous standard
• Changes improvements or new
opportunities for construction
• Changes or corrections due to errors or
different interpretations
• Editorial changes (which have no impact
on the development of products)
The ANNEX R (Normative) of the standard
contains List of the amended paragraphs
that contain more stringent requirements /
criticism that require re-verification of the
products The list of items specified in this
Annex provides details of the requirements
of this new edition of IEC 60598-1 that
need to be considered when switching to
new standard or certification of the product
from the previous edition of IEC 60598-1
(including all variants). The tests may not be
necessary in all cases.
ANNEX R
• Clause 4.28: attachment of thermal
protection devices
• Clause 10.3: Touch current, protective
conductor current and electric burn
• Clause 12.5.2: Heating test (abnormal
conditions) for lighters marked tc + x
• Clause 3.2.12: Marking of earth terminals
• Clause 3.2.23, 4.24.2; retinal hazard due
to blue light
• Clause 3.3.22, 4:31: Isolation of circuits
• Clause 4.32 10.2: Protection Devices
against surge
• Clause 8.2.1, Annex M: Accessibility to
basic isolation
Among the requirement introduced the
most relevant is the newest related to the
assessment of retinal hazard due to blue
light (from LEDs) previously considered by
an IEC /OSM interpretation sheet.
Current Situation:
• No requirement on standard equipment
(IEC 60598-1 and 7)
• Application of IEC 62471 with the
risk groups:
- Tests carried out in 200 mm or 500 lux
- Markings according to IEC / TR 62471-2
New IEC / TR 62778 (IEC 60598-1: 201x)
For the assessment of risk from
photobiological light blue I was adopted the
requirements and principles of the IEC / TR
62778 remembering that:
• The purpose of the TR is to regulate the
requirements for the “blue light hazard”
• Measures to 500 lux do not give a
meaningful result in terms of hazard (the
distance between the eye and the source
could be lower).
• It ‘was necessary to define the parameters
that the constructor of the source must
provide the manufacturer of the device to
avoid repeating all the evidence.
• Purpose of this TR is to define the
threshold between RG1 and RG2 for all
sources. Threshold above which is required
marking of the product.
• The RG Group 2 is not considered
“dangerous”, even though it deserves
attention by the use of markings
(IEC 62471).
Other changes affect many other clauses,
some offer change improvements or
new opportunities for construction, thus
requirements are simplified.
Other updates address changes or
corrections due to errors or different
interpretation contained in the previous
edition of the standard.
Last, updates include introduced editorial
changes of the previous which have
no impact on the development of the
luminaires.
