Oct 2013 Date to be reviewed and determined dependent on availability of efficient replacement products

Pilot lamps ≤ 25W Under review

Performance requirements

• Mains voltage halogen non-reflector lamps :– Initial efficacy ≥ 0.95 × (2.8 ln (L) − 4.0). This lower requirement is effective till

October 2013. • For ELV halogen reflector lamps, the average measured wattage shall be

no more than 37W effective from 14 April 2012.

Parameter Requirements Test Method Efficacy Initial efficacy (η) given by formula:

η ≥ (2.8 ln(L) – 4.0) in lumens/Watt where L = average measured initial luminous flux, in lumens.

AS/NZS 4934.1(Int) (references IEC 60064 and IEC 60630)

Life Life of the median lamp ≥ 2000 hours Lumen maintenance

Lumen maintenance at 75% of rated life ≥ 80%

Australian MEPS curves

Supporting/Complementary MEPS Regulations

Performance requirements have also been published (2009) for CFLi:

– Efficacy– Start time – Lifetime– Lumen maintenance – Power factor – Colour (xy, CCT and CRI) – Mercury level– EMC

Performance requirements for LEDi are currently under consideration.
