This Standard specifies requirements for the classification of ballasts for a range of fluorescent lamp types (refer to Tables 1 to 3) according to their Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) and the form of labelling of the EEI, which is generally shown on the ballast rating plate.
This Standard also specifies the minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) requirements for certain fluorescent lamp ballasts.
The ballasts covered by this Standard are the ferromagnetic or electronic type, that are used with fluorescent lamps with a rated lamp power from 10 W to 70 W, for use on 50 Hz supplies of 230/240/250 V or a range which includes one or more of these voltages.
This Standard covers ballasts that are supplied as separate components or as part of a luminaire.
This Standard does not cover the following ballast-lamp combinations:
(a) Primarily for use on d.c. supply or batteries.
(b) Primarily for the production of light outside the visible spectrum, ie. 400 nm to 800 nm.
(c) For exit signs within the scope of AS/NZS 2293.
(d) Hazardous area lighting equipment, within the scope of AS/NZS 2380, AS/NZS 60079 and AS/NZS 61241 Series of Standards.
