ANNEX III Ecodesign requirements

1. ENERGY EFFICIENCY REQUIREMENTS

1.1. Energy efficiency requirements for directional lamps
The energy efficiency index (EEI) of the lamp is calculated as follows and rounded to two decimal places:
EEI=Pcor∕Pref
where:
Pcor is the rated power measured at nominal input voltage and corrected where appropriate in accordance with Table 1. The correction factors are cumulative where appropriate.
Pref is the reference power obtained from the useful luminous flux of the lamp (Φuse) by the following formula:
For models with Φuse < 1 300 lumen:
Pref=0,88Φuse+0,049Φuse
For models with Φuse ≥ 1 300 lumen:
Pref=0,07341Φuse
Φuse is defined as follows:
directional lamps with a beam angle ≥ 90° other than filament lamps and carrying a warning on their packaging in accordance with point 3.1.2(j) of this Annex: rated luminous flux in a 120° cone (Φ120°)
other directional lamps: rated luminous flux in a 90° cone (Φ90°).
The maximum EEI of directional lamps is indicated in Table 2.
Stage 3 for mains-voltage filament lamps shall apply only if no later than 30 September 2015, evidence is produced by the Commission through a detailed market assesment and communicated to the Consultation Forum that there are mains-voltage lamps on the market that are:
compliant with the maximum EEI requirement in stage 3;
affordable in terms of not entailing excessive costs for the majority of end-users;
broadly equivalent in terms of consumer-relevant functionality parameters to mains-voltage filament lamps available on the date of entry into force of this Regulation, including in terms of luminous fluxes spanning the full range of reference luminous fluxes listed in Table 6;
compatible with equipment designed for installation between the mains and filament lamps available on the date of entry into force of this Regulation according to state-of-the-art requirements for compatibility.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2.3. Functionality requirement for equipment designed for installation between the mains and the lamps

(a) As from stage 2, equipment designed for installation between the mains and the lamps shall comply with state-of-the-art requirements for compatibility with lamps whose energy efficiency index (calculated for both directional and non-directional lamps in accordance with the method set out in point 1.1 of this Annex) is at most:
0,24 for non-directional lamps (assuming that Φ use = total rated luminous flux);
0,40 for directional lamps.
When a dimming control device is switched on at its lowest control setting for which the operated lamps consume power, the operated lamps shall emit at least 1 % of their luminous flux at full load.
When a luminaire is placed on the market and lamps that the end-user can replace are included with the luminaire, these lamps shall be of one of the two highest energy classes, according to Delegated Regulation (EU) No 874/2012, with which the luminaire is labelled to be compatible.

ANNEX IV Verification procedure for market surveillance purposes
When verifying the compliance of a product model with the requirements laid down in this Regulation, for the requirements referred to in this Annex the authorities of Great Britain must apply the verification procedures listed in this Annex.
Great Britain authorities shall use reliable, accurate and reproducible measurement procedures, which take into account the generally recognised state-of-the-art measurement methods ....
