2.—(1) An equivalence claim involving the power of a replaced light source type may be given only—

(a)for directional light sources, if the light source type is listed in Table 7 and the luminous flux of the light source in a 90° cone (Φ90°) is not lower than the corresponding reference luminous flux in Table 7, and for this purpose—

(i)the reference luminous flux must be multiplied by the correction factor in Table 8; and

(ii)for LED light sources, it must in addition be multiplied by the correction factor in Table 9;

(b)for non-directional light sources, if the claimed equivalent incandescent light source power (in Watts, rounded to the nearest integer) corresponds to the luminous flux of the light source in Table 10.

(2) The intermediate values of both the luminous flux and the claimed equivalent light source power (in Watts, rounded to the integer) must be calculated by linear interpolation between the two adjacent values.

(3) A claim that a LED light source replaces a fluorescent light source without integrated ballast of a particular wattage may be made only if—

(a)the luminous intensity in any direction around the tube axis does not deviate by more than 25% from the average luminous intensity around the tube;

(b)the luminous flux of the LED light source is not lower than the luminous flux of the fluorescent light source of the claimed wattage; and

(c)the wattage of the LED light source is not higher than the wattage of the fluorescent light source it is claimed to replace.

(4) For light sources that can be tuned to emit light at full-load with different characteristics, the values of parameters that vary with these characteristics must be reported at the reference control settings.

(5) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(b), the luminous flux of the fluorescent light source must be obtained by multiplying the claimed wattage with the minimum luminous efficacy value corresponding to the fluorescent light source in Table 11.

Information to be displayed for a containing product

3.—(1) If a light source is placed on the market as a part in a containing product, the following statement must be displayed, clearly legible, in the user manual or booklet of instructions—

This product contains a light source of energy efficiency class <X>,

where <X> is to be replaced by the energy efficiency class of the contained light source.

(2) If the product contains more than one light source, the statement referred to in sub-paragraph (1) may be in the plural, or repeated for each light source, as appropriate.

Information to be displayed on the supplier’s website

4.  The following information must be shown, accessible to the public without charge, on the supplier’s website—

(a)the reference control settings, and instructions on how they can be implemented, where applicable;

(b)instructions on how to remove lighting control parts or non-lighting parts, if any, or how to switch them off or minimise their power consumption;

(c)if the light source is dimmable—

(i)a list of dimmers with which it is compatible; and

(ii)the light source-dimmer compatibility standard with which it is compliant, if any;

(d)if the light source contains mercury, instructions on how to clean up the debris in case of accidental breakage;

(e)recommendations on how to dispose of the light source at the end of its life in line with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2013.

Explanatory Memorandum

Explanatory Memorandum sets out a brief statement of the purpose of a Statutory Instrument and provides information about its policy objective and policy implications. They aim to make the Statutory Instrument accessible to readers who are not legally qualified and accompany any Statutory Instrument or Draft Statutory Instrument laid before Parliament from June 2004 onwards.

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
