Lighting Safety Regulations and Product Safety Series｜Part 2
With the full popularization of LED lighting，LED control device (LED Driver) It has become a key component that affects the safety and stability of lamps and lanterns.
In order to ensure the safety of use and the quality of electricity, the government has officially The LED control device is included in the mandatory inspection commodity, and since January 1, 116th year of the Republic of China (2027 AD) It will be implemented from now on.
Why should the LED control device be included in the compulsory inspection?
The LED control device is responsible for power conversion and stable output. Once the design is poor, it may cause：
- Risk of overheating, fire or electric shock
- Electromagnetic interference, affecting other electronic equipment
- Harmonic pollution of electricity reduces the quality of the power grid
👉 The purpose of inclusion in the inspection is to ensure that Every LED power supply can operate safely and stably。
Which LED control devices are in the range of this column?
The products included in the compulsory inspection this time must meet the following conditions at the same time：
- Type：
- Freestanding, or
- Built-in with shell protection
- Electrical specifications：
- Rated AC voltage Below 300V
- Rated power consumption Below 500W
- purpose: for General lighting use
Not included：
- Voltage or power exceeds the upper limit
- One-piece design inseparable from lamps and lanterns
- Special purpose (such as mosquito killer, germicidal lamp, etc.)
Four core requirements for compulsory inspection
The LED control device must also meet the following specifications：
1. Basic safety：
- CNS 61347 series (power supply safety, temperature rise, abnormal state)
2. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)：
- CNS 14115, to ensure that it does not interfere with other equipment
3. Power supply harmonic current：
- IEC 61000-3-2 (2024 edition) to avoid polluting power systems
4. Labeling of restricted substances (RoHS)：
- Section 5 of CNS 15663, the status of the six available substances must be clearly marked
These four items are indispensable in order to complete compliance.
Time points and processes that manufacturers must pay attention to
- Enforcement day: January 1, 116
- Inspection method: Verify login
- Formal test (designated laboratory test)
- Declaration of Conformity (mass production consistency)
- Certificate validity: 3 years
- General review schedule: 14 working days
- If you need to make up samples or test, 7 working days will be added after the samples arrive.
Integration of Jinghong Inspectionassist
Jinghong inspection is Designated laboratory approved by BSMI, Can assist the industry to complete：
- LED control device column tube judgment
- Safety, EMC, harmonic and RoHS testing
- Document and marking review
- Guidance on the verification login process
Assist manufacturers to stably complete the verification preparation before the new system hits the road.
Jinghong recommends
The LED control device is included in the compulsory inspection to reflect the industry's commitment to Power supply safety, electromagnetic compatibility and power quality A comprehensive upgrade.
Since 2016, early inventory of product specifications and testing requirements will be the key to the smooth launch of LED power supplies.
Jinghong Inspection will continue to assist the industry to steadily respond to the new inspection requirements of LED control devices.
