Appendix DD to Subpart B of Part 430 - Uniform Test Method for Measuring the Energy Consumption and Energy Efficiency of General Service Lamps That Are Not General Service Incandescent Lamps, Compact Fluorescent Lamps, or Integrated LED Lamps
10:3.0.1.4.18.3.13.6.42 : Appendix DD
Appendix DD to Subpart B of Part 430 - Uniform Test Method for
Measuring the Energy Consumption and Energy Efficiency of General
Service Lamps That Are Not General Service Incandescent Lamps,
Compact Fluorescent Lamps, or Integrated LED Lamps Note:
On or after April 19, 2017, any representations, including
certifications of compliance (if required), made with respect to
the energy use or efficiency of general service lamps that are not
general service incandescent lamps, compact fluorescent lamps, or
integrated LED lamps must be made in accordance with the results of
testing pursuant to this appendix DD.
1. Scope: This appendix DD specifies the test methods
required to measure the initial lumen output, input power, lamp
efficacy, power factor, and standby mode energy consumption of
general service lamps that are not general service incandescent
lamps, compact fluorescent lamps, or integrated LED lamps.
2. Definitions:
Measured initial input power means the input power to the
lamp, measured after the lamp is stabilized and seasoned (if
applicable), and expressed in watts (W).
Measured initial lumen output means the lumen output of
the lamp, measured after the lamp is stabilized and seasoned (if
applicable), and expressed in lumens (lm).
Power factor means the measured initial input power
(watts) divided by the product of the input voltage (volts) and the
input current (amps) measured at the same time as the initial input
power.
3. Active Mode Test Procedures
3.1. Take measurements at full light output.
3.2. Do not use a goniophotometer.
3.3. For single base OLED and non-integrated LED lamps, position
a lamp in either the base-up and base-down orientation throughout
testing. Test an equal number of lamps in the sample in the base-up
and base-down orientations, except that, if the manufacturer
restricts the orientation, test all of the units in the sample in
the manufacturer-specified orientation. For double base OLED and
non-integrated LED lamps, test all units in the horizontal
orientation except that, if the manufacturer restricts the
orientation, test all of the units in the sample in the
manufacturer-specified orientation.
3.4. Operate the lamp at the rated voltage throughout testing.
For lamps with multiple rated voltages including 120 volts, operate
the lamp at 120 volts. If a lamp is not rated for 120 volts,
operate the lamp at the highest rated input voltage. For
non-integrated LED lamps, operate the lamp at the
manufacturer-declared input voltage and current.
3.5. Operate the lamp at the maximum input power. If multiple
modes occur at the same maximum input power (such as variable CCT
or CRI), the manufacturer may select any of these modes for
testing; however, all measurements must be taken at the same
selected mode. The manufacturer must indicate in the test report
which mode was selected for testing and include detail such that
another laboratory could operate the lamp in the same mode.
3.6. To measure initial lumen output, input power, input
voltage, and input current use the test procedures in the table in
this section.

3.7. Determine initial lamp efficacy by dividing the measured
initial lumen output (lumens) by the measured initial input power
(watts).
3.8. Determine power factor by dividing the measured initial
input power (watts) by the product of the measured input voltage
(volts) and measured input current (amps).
4. Standby Mode Test Procedure
4.1. Measure standby mode power only for lamps that are capable
of standby mode operation.
4.2. Maintain lamp orientation as specified in section 3.3 of
this appendix.
4.3. Connect the lamp to the manufacturer-specified wireless
control network (if applicable) and configure the lamp in standby
mode by sending a signal to the lamp instructing it to have zero
light output. Lamp must remain connected to the network throughout
testing.
4.4. Operate the lamp at the rated voltage throughout testing.
For lamps with multiple rated voltages including 120 volts, operate
the lamp at 120 volts. If a lamp is not rated for 120 volts,
operate the lamp at the highest rated input voltage.
4.5. Stabilize the lamp prior to measurement as specified in
section 5 of IEC 62301-DD (incorporated by reference; see §
430.3).
4.6. Measure the standby mode power in watts as specified in
section 5 of IEC 62301-DD (incorporated by reference; see §
430.3).
