<span style="color:red">NEW!</span>IEC 62442-3:2018 is available as <a href="https://webstore.iec.ch/publication/63085">IEC 62442-3:2018 RLV</a> which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.</br></br>IEC 62442-3:2018 defines a measurement method for the power losses of electromagnetic transformers as well as the power losses and the standby power of electronic convertors for tungsten-halogen lamps and for LED light source(s). It is applicable for controlgear that are designed for use on DC supplies up to 1 000 V and/or AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. A calculation method of the efficiency of the mentioned controlgear for tungsten­halogen lamps and LED light source(s) is also defined. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision and has been harmonized with IEC 62442-1 and IEC 62442­2.
