Description:

The U.S. government established a mandatory compliance program in the 1970s requiring that certain types of new appliances bear a label to help consumers compare the energy efficiency among similar products. In 1980, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) â€™s Appliance Labeling Rule became effective, and requires that EnergyGuide labels be placed on all new appliances. The FTC is responsible for the design, implementation and compliance of this program. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is responsible for the test procedures.

Fluorescent Lamps - USA

Program Type: Minimum Energy Performance

Standard - Mandatory Product: Fluorescent Lamps Economy: USA Test Standard: 10 CFR Part 430 Subpart B App R Reference Test Standard: ANSI C 78.1 , ANSI C 78.2 , ANSI C 78.3 , ANSI C 78.375 , ANSI C 82.3 , IESNA LM-58-94 , IESNA LM-9-99

Description:

Minimum standards of energy efficiency for many major appliances were established by the U.S. Congress in the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act (NAECA) of 1987, and in the National Appliance Energy Conservation Amendments of 1988. Standards for some fluorescent and incandescent reflector lamps, plumbing products, electric motors, and commercial water heaters, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems were added in the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPACT). The US Department of Energy (DOE) is responsible for developing the standards and test procedures for the Appliance Standards Program as well as periodically issues new standards for specific appliances. The standard applies to the four main categories of general service fluorescent lamps and excludes colored, cold- temperature, reprographic and certain other special purpose lamps as follows; 1. 4-foot, medium bi-pin: >35W (lamp wattage), 69 (minimum average CRI); 35W (lamp wattage), 45 (minimum average CRI), 75 LPW (MALE) for both. (Effective date: 31 October 1995) 2. 2-foot, U-shaped: > 35W (lamp wattage), 69 (minimum average CRI), 68 LPW (MALE); 35W (lamp wattage), 45 (minimum average CRI), 64 LPW (MALE) (Effective date: 31 October 1995) 3. 8-foot, slimline: > 65 W (lamp wattage), 69 (minimum average CRI); 65W (lamp wattage), 45 (minimum average CRI), 80 LPW (MALE) for both (Effective date: 30 April 1994) 4. 8-foot, high output: > 100W (lamp wattage), 69 (minimum average CRI); 100W (lamp wattage), 45 (minimum average CRI), 80 LPW (MALE) for both (Effective date: 30 April 1994) Note: MALE = Minimum Average Lamp Efficacy in lumens per watt (LPW).

Test Procedures (Mandatory Requirement)

10 CFR Part 430 Subpart B App R Appendix R to Subpart B of Part 430--Uniform Test Method for Measuring Average Lamp Efficacy (LE) and Color Rendering Index (CRI) of Electric Lamps.

Additional Requirements for CFLs

1 CFL Requirements for testing

1Take performance and electrical requirements at the end of the 100-hour aging period according to ANSI C78.5. The lamp efficacy shall be the average of the lesser of the lumens per watt measured in the base-up and base-down positions an/or other specified positions. Use wattages placed on packaging to select proper specification efficacy in this table, not measured wattage.2 Efficacies are based on measured values for lumens and wattages from pertinent test data. Wattages and lumens placed on packages maynot be used in calculation and are not governed by this criterion. For multi-level, such as 3-way, or dimmable systems, measurement must be at the highest wattage setting listed for model. Acceptable efficacy and 1,000-hour and lumen maintenance at 40% of rated life average lumen output measurement error is - 3%.3 For a list of NVLAP accredited labs, visit http://ts.nist.gov/ts/htdocs/210/214/scopes/eelit.htm

1 Certification: Manufacturers shall certify that ENERGY STAR qualified compact fluorescent lamps sold using the ENERGY STAR certification mark have: 2 1) Been tested and third party listed to UL Standard 1993 for Self-Ballasted Lamps and Lamp Adapters by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) accredited by Occupational, Safety, and Health Administration (OSHA), 3 2) Meet the manufacturers’ declared performance and use criteria that are found on the packaging, 4 3) Meet or exceed the minimum performance criteria contained in this ENERGY STAR Specification for the characteristics shown above.
