The United States will soon introduce a new standard LED lamps

UL (UnderwritersLaboratoriesInc.) is a United States engaged in product safety certification and standards of security organization, in North America and the world have a great impact. Headquartered in the United States, is engaged in the product evaluation and the standard has 110 years of history, the annual test has more than 18 thousand kinds of products, products for use in the UL more than 19 billion, all over the world has more than and 60 subsidiaries. According to UL lighting planning general manager of the Ministry of Commerce, said ELiPuszkar: UL is working on a series of LED (product) safety assessment standards.

Technical innovation in the field of lighting, the application of LED is undoubtedly the most exciting, it will change the structure of the lighting market, the wide application of the point the day and await for it. When it comes to LED, the technology itself is not a new thing, many years ago, it has begun to use LED for the instrument and equipment indicator. With the development of technology, the performance of the chip and the material has been improved and improved, which makes the brightness and life of the LED have been greatly improved, thus promoting the application of LED in more fields.

Today, many manufacturers have launched their own LED lighting products, with the use of LED lighting products in large scale, soon we will see the LED will be the mainstream lighting applications. Long life and almost do not need these two characteristics, deeply attracted many lamps designers, coupled with its low power consumption, strong adaptability and controllability of the color and brightness of the advantages, the LED lamp will become the new darling of lighting products.

In order to ensure that the new LED lighting products as general lighting for public acceptance and trust, UL has begun to prepare the safety assessment standard of LED.

When when developing a new product design, manufacturers should consider the following factors affecting safety: to prevent electric shock

In order to prevent electric shock, generally for two cases treated separately: 1 power supply power supply LED products; 2 is directly connected to the grid or the use of non LED lamp power supply power supply.
