This International Standard specifies the safety and interchangeability requirements, together
with the test methods and conditions required to show compliance of tubular fluorescent
lamps with integrated means for controlling starting and stable operation (self-ballasted
fluorescent lamps).
These lamps are intended for domestic and similar general lighting purposes, having a rated
voltage of 50 V to 250 V, having a rated frequency of 50 Hz or 60Hz and having IEC 60061-1
compliant caps.
For a cap-holder system not specifically mentioned in this standard, the relevant information
on safety related tests provided by the manufacturer will apply.
The requirements of this standard relate only to type testing.
Recommendations for whole product testing or batch testing are given in Annex A. 
This part of the standard covers photobiological safety according to IEC 62471 and
IEC TR 62471-2. Blue light and infrared hazards are below the level which requires marking.dition 3.0 2015-02 INTERNATIONAL STANDARD NORME INTERNATIONALE Self-ballasted fluorescent lamps for general lighting services – Safety requirements Lampes à fluorescence à ballast intégré pour l'éclairage général – Règles de sécurité IEC 60968:2015-02(en-fr) THIS PUBLICATION IS COPYRIGHT PROTECTED Copyright ？ 2015 IEC, Geneva, Switzerland All rights reserved.
