Mexico Department of energy issued mandatory LED technical regulations

Recently, Mexico Department of energy issued a mandatory technical regulations on the use of NOM-030-ENER-2012, the general lighting light emitting diode (LED) lighting a new minimum energy efficiency standards, testing procedures, sampling, conformity assessment and labeling requirements.

Minimum illumination intensity the standard must comply with the requirements of A, 50lm/W to 55lm/W will be BT, P, PS and T type integrated full LED lighting and did not declare the LED bulb shape (minimum illumination intensity of energy department initially proposed for 50lm/W to 60lm/W); the lowest strength of BA, C, CA lighting, and F the G type set into a full range of LED lighting must be in accordance with 40lm/W; for AR11, BR, ER, MR, PAR and R type directional LED bulb, if the bulb diameter of not more than 6.35 cm, the minimum illumination intensity must comply with the 40lm/W, the minimum lighting lighting intensity more than 6.35 cm in diameter is 45lm/W.

The standard requirements, the total flux orientation and integrated full LED bulb (Luminous flux) measurement value of not less than the standard value of 90% marks on the products. The service life is not less than 15 thousand hours of light bulb sustained load flux is the lowest of 83.2%, and the service life is greater than or equal to 50 thousand hours of light bulb sustained load luminous flux is 95.8%. In addition, LED bulbs must be consistent with 2700 to 6500 of the relevant color temperature values, should also meet many other requirements and test procedures, including temperature tolerance test and open and close test.

In addition, standard LED lamp marked product name, brand, vendor information or some electronic information (such as the conventional input voltage, frequency, power and electric current), and determine the date or date of manufacture of the code. The packaging shall include information such as the name of the country of origin, the name and address of the manufacturer or importer of the country, certain electronic specifications, the type of bulb and the spatial distribution of the light source.

Mexico energy department issued a mandatory technical regulations, to give Mexico the standard LED lighting market. China's LED lighting standard is still in a blank state, but also makes China's LED market disorder, industry rely on price war to compete for the market, but also produced a lot of problems. The current our country may refer to LED lighting standards and the United States and Mexico and other countries, according to the current situation of our country to develop industry standards, promote the development of China's LED industry and lighting market.
