UNE-EN IEC 55015:2020

This International Standard applies to the emission (radiated and conducted) of radiofrequency disturbances from:

lighting equipment;

the lighting part of multi-function equipment where this lighting part is a primary function;

NOTE Examples are lighting equipment with visible-light communication

UV and IR radiation equipment for residential and non-industrial applications;

advertising signs;

NOTE Examples are neon tube advertising signs

decorative lighting;

emergency signs.

Excluded from the scope of this standard are:

components intended to be built into lighting equipment and which are not user-replaceable;

NOTE See CISPR 30-series of technical reports for built-in controlgear

lighting equipment operating in the ISM frequency bands (as defined in Resolution 63 (1979) of the ITU Radio Regulation);

lighting equipment for aircraft and airfield facilities (runways, service facilities, platforms);

video signs;

installations;

equipment for which the electromagnetic compatibility requirements in the radio-frequency range are explicitly formulated in other CISPR standards, even if they incorporate a built-in lighting function.

NOTE 1 Examples of exclusions are:

- equipment with built-in lighting devices for display back lighting, scale illumination and signaling;

- SSL-displays;

- range hoods, refrigerators, freezers;

- photocopiers, projectors;

- lighting equipment for road vehicles.

The frequency range covered is 9 kHz to 400 GHz. No measurements need to be performed at frequencies where no limits are specified in this standard.

Multi-function equipment which is subjected simultaneously to different clauses of this standard and/or other standards shall meet the provisions of each clause/standard with the relevant functions in operation.

For equipment outside the scope of this standard and which includes lighting as a secondary function, there is no need to separately assess the lighting function against this standard, provided that the lighting function was operative during the assessment in accordance with the applicable standard.

NOTE 2 Examples of equipment with a secondary lighting function may be range hoods, fans, refrigerators, freezers, ovens and TV with ambient lighting.

The radiated emission requirements in this standard are not intended to be applicable to the intentional transmissions from a radio transmitter as defined by the ITU, nor to any spurious emissions related to these intentional transmissions.

Within the remainder of this standard, wherever the term lighting equipment or EUT is used, it is meant to be the electrical lighting and similar equipment falling in the scope of this standard as specified in this clause.
