1 Scope
This part of IEC 61547 describes an objective light flickermeter , which can be applied for the following purposes:
-
measuring the intrinsic performance of all lighting equipment without the application
of voltage fluctuations in terms of illuminanceflicker; during this measurement, the
lighting equipment is supplied with a stable mains;
-
testing the immunity performance of lighting equipment against (unintentional) voltage
fluctuation disturbance on the AC mains in terms of illuminanceflicker; during this
test a set of defined voltage fluctuations are applied to the AC mains and the immunity
of the lighting equipment to the disturbance is determined.
Apart from the above two purposes, the immunity performance of lighting equipment
can also be tested against intentional voltage fluctuation on the AC mains arising
for example from mains signalling. This is however not described in further detail
in this document.
NOTE 1
IEC 61000‑4‑13:2015
[24] provides guidance regarding test levels and frequencies for mains signalling.
The object of this document is to establish a common and objective reference for evaluating
the performance of lighting equipment in terms of illuminanceflicker. Temporal changes
in the colour of light (chromatic ...
