  Description:

Luminaires - Part 2-22: Particular requirements - Luminaires for emergency lighting

  Purpose

EN IEC 60598-2-22 specifies requirements for emergency luminaires for use with electrical lamps on emergency power supplies not exceeding 1 000 V. It does not cover the effects of non-emergency voltage reductions on luminaires incorporating high-pressure discharge lamps. The text of IEC 60598-2-22:2021 has been approved in Europe as EN IEC 60598-2-22:2022 without any changes.The main changes in the new edition are:— update of requirements for rest mode and inhibiting mode,— clarification of high-temperature operation tests,— introduction of new requirements for lithium batteries and  electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs),— clarification of resistance to heat, fire and tracking, test facilities for self-contained luminaires and a test method for contrast measurements of exit signs.
