Comprehensive Guide to RoHS Compliance Testing of Lighting Fixtures

Standard-Related Information

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance testing is a critical requirement for lighting fixtures manufacturers seeking to comply with international and national regulations. This article provides an in-depth overview of the relevant standards, their evolution, and the importance of conformity.

Relevant Standards

The primary standard governing RoHS compliance testing is EN 50575:2019 (IEC 62474:2018), which outlines the requirements for hazardous substance restrictions in electrical equipment. Additionally, EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments set forth the limits for restricted substances.

International Standards

  • ISO 14001:2015 - Environmental Management Systems

  • IEC 62474:2018 - Hazardous Substance List and Restriction Rules for EEE (Electrical and Electronic Equipment)

  • IEEE C95.1-2005 - Safety Levels for Human Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz

    • National Standards

  • EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU

  • UKs RoHS Directive (EU) 2011/65/EU as transposed into UK law

  • Chinas RoHS Implementation Regulation (2017)

    • Standard Development Organizations and Their Role

  • IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission)

  • ISO (International Organization for Standardization)

  • IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)

  • CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization)

    • These organizations develop and maintain standards for the electrical industry, ensuring consistency and safety across borders.

    Standard Evolution and Update

    Standards evolve as new technologies emerge and regulations change. Manufacturers must adapt to comply with updated requirements, which often involve significant changes in testing procedures and equipment.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Standard Title

    --- ---

    EN 50575:2019 (IEC 62474:2018) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive

    EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment

    ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management Systems

    Standard Compliance Requirements

    Manufacturers must comply with specific requirements for each industry, including:

  • Aerospace

  • Automotive

  • Medical Devices

  • Consumer Electronics

    • Failure to meet these standards can result in product recalls, financial penalties, or even market exclusion.

    Standard-Related Information Summary

    RoHS compliance testing is governed by a complex set of international and national standards. Manufacturers must understand the requirements for each industry and adhere to evolving regulations to avoid costly non-compliance.
