The Third-rate companies sell products, second-rate companies do the brand, first-class enterprise set up standards. For the industry, it is also like this. Setting up the standards, that is, the rules of the game. At present, the International Commission on Illumination (CIE), the International Electromechanical Commission, the light engine of the Council of Europe, the U.S. Energy Star, ISA and other agencies are going to set up the development of LED lighting standards, in order to get the right to compete for industry voice.
Throughout the current LED standards, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) as of June 2011, the lighting LED international standards of IEC and CIE have 20 items, relating to the special requirements of the LED module connector, general lighting with LEDs and LED modules terms and definition-sand so on. While the American National Standards Organization (ANSI), the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) CIE technical documents as a reference organization by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has released a solid-state cree led lighting performance and measurement standards. Aiming at LED products, China has more than 146 standard. As of the end of 2010, released by the National Standards Commission the relevant national standards and LED lighting, including a universal standard, safety standards 10, 12 performance standards. In addition, some provinces and cities, according to the needs of the local development of the LED industry, carry a large number of standards development and research working.
But so far, the national and international levels on the cree led lighting source calibration interface very small number, the vast majority of LED lighting products can not be replaced, leading to waste a lot of resources. “Zhaga mainly relates to the interchangeability of the various lamps with the LED module or versatility predetermined shape, size, and optical parameters. So to boot everyone to move in this direction, in order to achieve the object of the generic and interchangeable.” Guangdong Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute director of product for lighting said, “the inadequacies for Zhaga is that it did not take into account the problem of accelerated life (module life issues), so the length of life should still be in accordance with the performance standards recommended assessment. The general test time is 25% of the rated life or up to 6000 hours life time which is a little long.
