Scope

IEC 62031:2018 is also available as IEC 62031:2018 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

IEC 62031:2018 specifies general and safety requirements for light-emitting diode (LED) modules:
- non-integrated LED modules (LEDni modules) and semi-integrated LED modules (LEDsi modules) for operation under constant voltage, constant current or constant power;
- Integrated LED modules (LEDi modules) for use on DC supplies up to 250 V or AC supplies up to 1 000 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2008, Amendment 1:2012 and Amendment 2:2014. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

c. the definitions for "replaceable LED module", "non-replaceable LED module" and "non-user replaceable LED module" were introduced while other definitions covered by IEC 62504 have been removed;
d. the marking clause was restructured and a table added to provide an informative overview;
e. the marking requirements for built-in LED modules were changed;
f. the entry for the marking with the working voltage was revised;
g. the provisions for terminals and heat management were revised;
