Taiwan to develop incandescent bulb energy efficiency standards inspection methods

March 23, 2012, Taiwan region, the Ministry of Economic Affairs issued by the word number 10104601990th announcement, the development of incandescent bulbs energy efficiency standards for the use of inspection methods, and effective from now.

Announcement matters:

First, the announcement of incandescent bulbs to comply with the standard CNS298 electric light bulb (general lighting) or CNS11006 family of small electric light bulbs, and the rated power consumption of 25 or more in the Watt.

Two, manufacturers or imported incandescent bulbs, allow the consumption management system of energy efficiency benchmark shall submit the following documents provided to the central competent authority or its authorized agencies "(hereinafter referred to as the" management system for the login account and password):

(a) management system login account and password application form.

(two) the registration certificate issued by the company or the business registration authority to the company registration certificate, the business registration certificate, or the information system of the above competent authority.

Three. The manufacturer shall, after obtaining the login account number and password of the management system, file the following documents with the central authorities for the approval of the product in line with the energy efficiency standards for incandescent bulbs:

(1) the application form for the approval of the energy efficiency standards for incandescent bulbs; the application for approval shall be entrusted to the agent of another person, and the entrusted agent shall be accompanied by the original certificate of entrustment issued by the commission.

(two) the juridical person "TAF" approved with CNS3891 or CNS11006 detection ability of the laboratory to complete the incandescent light bulb and power consumption ratio of the initial beam performance test (test report issued by the central competent authority shall send a copy to the electronic file or CD mail stamped with the company seal).

The performance test report of the second paragraph mentioned in the preceding paragraph shall not be issued by the applicant or the laboratory owned by the company.

If the application is approved by the central competent authority, the certificate of approval shall be issued.

At the beginning of four, before the provisions of the beam and power consumption ratio test, the same type of incandescent bulbs should be the initial beam were tested on 3 samples (in lumens, LM) and power consumption (in watts, W) and calculate the luminous efficiency (in LM / W, lm/W), and the average value of this type of luminous efficiency; the measured luminous efficiency up to the first decimal, second digits after the decimal point four to five homes.

Five. The type of the same paragraph referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be determined as follows:

(a) rated consumption of electrical power is different, depending on the type.

(two) the rated power consumption is the same, but the bulb diameter, the length of the bulb, the type of filling gas, the appearance (transparent, matte or film), filament material or shape is different, depending on the type.

(three) rated consumption of electric power, the diameter of the glass bulb, the length of the bulb, the type of filling gas, the appearance (transparent, matte or coating), filament material, filament shape, only the different types of lamp cap, as the same type.

Six, manufacturers or import incandescent bulbs have the following circumstances, should re apply to the central authorities for approval:

(a) changes in the basic design of the product, which affect its energy efficiency.

(two) the basic design of the product has not been changed, but the model has changed.

(three) when the energy consumption standards for products are revised.

Seven, manufacturers should each year before the end of February, sales in a number of incandescent bulbs before completing the management system in the year.

Eight, the central competent authority to implement annual consumption of incandescent lamp energy efficiency of sampling inspection; the test samples shall be specified by the central competent authority, and by the production or import of manufacturers to within a specified time limit, the delivery of the juridical person "TAF" recognized with CNS3891 or CNS11006 detection ability the laboratory test.

The test samples, the measured luminous efficiency of incandescent lamp shall not be lower than the consumption of energy efficiency standards, and should be in the product labeling value above 95%; not met by the central competent authority informed the manufacturer for retest; retest number should be two times the number of samples of the same type of test, retest related expenses the burden of manufacturers.

Nine, the first point of the first test, according to the number of manufacturers or importers of the annual sales of incandescent bulbs in the proportion of the total number of measured, in principle, sales amounted to less than or up to 150 thousand, pumping a model. However, the central competent authorities can adjust the proportion of actual measurement.
