LED lamps overseas increased barriers to entry

　　LED lights main export destinations as the European Union, in addition to the safety aspect of the earliest mandatory CE certification, in recent years, also on the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) proposed certification requirements.

　　Insiders said that the current overseas market entry barriers in products continues to increase.

　　This reporter has learned, in April 2012 has been published abroad LED lighting technical regulations and standards of informed on up to several months. Including both Europe and other developed markets, there are other emerging markets.

　　EU published G/TBT/N/EU/34 number and 35 Bulletin, on the Eco-design Directive LED lamps made energy-efficiency requirements. ERP EU Directive is divided into three stages, namely intends 2013, and 2016 of 1 September execution, the first phase LED lamps Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) is required to achieve 0.5, the second and third phases of LED lamps energy Efficiency Index (EEI) is required to achieve 0.2, only the corresponding, respectively, to achieve the required implementation date of directional light to enter the EU market.

　　Same period, the United States has also released a test program on the LED lamps notification No. G/TBT/N/USA/698 to comply with the "Energy Policy and Conservation Act" (EPCA) labeling requirements. The proposed test procedure specifies the measurement light emitting diode lamp lumen output, input power, and the relative spectral distribution methods (to determine the correlated color temperature or CCT). In addition, the proposed test procedure provides for measuring lumen maintenance LED light source approach to predict the rated life of LED lamps.
