Annotation of standard text IEC 60598-2-8-ed.3.0 :
IEC 60598-2-8:2013 specifies requirements for handlamps and similar portable luminaires which are held in the hand, hooked up or resting on a surface for use with electric light sources on supply voltages not exceeding 250 V. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 1996, its Amendment 1 (2000) and its Amendment 2 (2007). It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition. a) The requirements have been updated to make them consistent and to solve contradicting requirements introduced in the Amendment 2. In that amendment, a requirement was introduced specifying that handlamp shall always be classified as rough service luminaire only. The implication of this statement was that according to 4.13.4 of Part 1 this kind of luminaire shall always be IP54. This requirements is in contradiction with several points of this Part 2 where it is considered acceptable for ordinary luminaires (e.g. 8.11.1, 8.11.2 and 8.13.1). b) Furthermore, the contradiction between the requirement in 8.7.1 and 8.7.2 regarding the type of material used for the protective cover has been corrected. This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60598-1:2008. La CEI 60598-2-8:2013 specifie les exigences applicables aux baladeuses et aux luminaires portatifs analogues qui sont tenus a la main, suspendus, ou poses sur une surface, a utiliser avec des sources lumineuses electriques pour des tensions dalimentation ne depassant pas 250 V. Cette troisieme edition annule et remplace la deuxieme edition, parue en 1996, son Amendement 1 (2000) et son Amendement 2 (2007). Elle constitue une revision technique. Cette edition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport a ledition precedente. a) Les exigences ont ete mises a jour pour les rendre coherentes et pour corriger des contradictions introduites dans lAmendement 2. Une exigence a ete introduite dans cet amendement specifiant que les baladeuses doivent toujours etre classees en tant que luminaires pour conditions severes demploi uniquement. Cette declaration impliquait que conformement au 4.13.4 de la Partie 1, ce type de luminaire doit toujours etre IP54. Cette exigence est en contradiction avec plusieurs points de la Partie 2 ou les luminaires ordinaires sont consideres comme acceptables (par exemple en 8.11.1, 8.11.2 et 8.13.1). b) De plus, la contradiction entre les exigences 8.7.1 et 8.7.2 concernant le type de materiel utilise pour le capot de protection a ete corrigee. Cette publication doit etre lue conjointement avec la CEI 60598-1:2008.
