LED Light Bulbs Key Product Criteria
| Performance Characteristics: | Current Criteria: |
|---|---|
| Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) | Nominal CCT: 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, or 4000K |
| Color Maintenance | The change of chromaticity over the minimum lumen maintenance test period (6000 hours) shall be within 0.007 on the CIE 1976 (u’,v’) diagram. |
| Color Quality (Color Rendering Index or CRI) | CRI >= 80, R9>0 |
| Dimming | If a product is dimmable, packaging must state this. Minimum efficacy, light output, CCT, CRI, and power factor of dimmable lamps will be confirmed with the lamp operated at full power. |
| Warranty | A warranty must be provided for lamps, covering material repair or replacement for a minimum of three (3) years from the date of purchase. |
| Allowable Lamp Bases | Must be a lamp base listed by ANSI. |
| Power Factor | For lamp power <= 5W and for low voltage lamps, no minimum power factor is required. For lamp power >= 5W, power factor must be = 0.70. |
| Minimum Operating Temperature | Integral lamp shall have a minimum operating temperature of -20°C or below. |
| LED Operating Frequency | >= 120 Hz |
| Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference | Integral LED lamp must meet the appropriate FCC requirements for consumer use (FCC 47CFR Part 15). |
| Audible Noise | Integral lamp shall have a Class A sound rating. |
| Transient Protection | Power supply shall comply with IEEE C.62.41-1991, Class A operation. The line transient shall consist of seven strikes of a 100kHz ring wave, 2.5kV level, for both common mode and differential mode. |
| Operating Voltage | Lamp shall operate at rated nominal voltage of 120, 240, or 277 VAC, or at 12 or 24 VAC or VDC. |
