China's LED lighting products energy certification officially opened

At the end of 2010, China Quality Certification Center (CQC) released three LED lighting product energy saving certification rules, a safety electromagnetic compatibility certification rule and three LED lighting product energy saving certification technical specifications, involving LED road/tunnel lighting products, LED downlights Reflective self-ballasted LED lamps and three types of products.

In 2010, it was considered by many experts in the industry as the year of “blowout” in the global semiconductor lighting market. Semiconductor lighting technology developed rapidly. The lighting industry continued to upgrade. Product performance increased rapidly, production costs decreased substantially, and LED lighting product penetration rate increased year by year. Enter the practical stage. The rapid development of the industry puts forward an urgent demand for standards and certification work. The introduction of the implementation rules of energy-saving certification for LED lighting products alleviates the hunger and thirst of the company to a certain extent, but at the same time, the company has begun to look forward to the development of more LED lighting product certification technical requirements. The good news is that the China Quality Certification Center stated that it will select the final products with significant energy-saving effect and high cost-effectiveness in semiconductor terminal lighting products to gradually carry out evaluation studies on product energy-saving certifications. However, what is a stereotyped product, how to achieve high cost performance, mainly rely on the joint efforts of industry colleagues.

In fact, with the start of this round of certification work, China has taken the lead in the world in the energy-saving certification of LED lighting products. China National Quality Certification Center product certification five director Xing Heping pointed out that the current energy-saving certification of LED lighting products carried out by CQC will not only assess the energy efficiency index of the product, but also first evaluate the basic performance of product safety and electromagnetic compatibility; certification of semiconductor lighting products Work can be divided into two aspects: safety + electromagnetic compatibility certification and energy saving certification. Safety + electromagnetic compatibility certification is based on national standards and related certification rules; energy conservation certification, mainly based on the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, Ministry of Transport Technical requirements for semiconductor lighting products in the semiconductor lighting product application demonstration project jointly conducted by three ministries and commissions, and reference to the research results of energy-efficiency detection of LED lamps by foreign authoritative organizations such as the US Energy Star, and the developed CQC energy conservation certification technical specifications and implementation rule.

The director of the National Semiconductor Device Quality Supervision and Inspection Center Huang Jie gave a high rating for this certification. “China's quality certification center issued the energy-saving certification of LED lighting products, and it strictly ensures the safety, basic performance indicators, and longevity. The quality of LED products, actively promote LED companies to comply with the basic standards in the certification to produce products, regulate the LED market, and promote the sound development of LED products."

Heavy production inspection

According to the deputy director of the National Electric Light Source Quality Supervision and Inspection Center (Shanghai), Yu Anqi, the greatest significance of certification is that it is a long-term mechanism that enables the development of the industry to no longer be limited to temporary promotion but to obtain normalization and health. Sustainable development. The certification process is the normative process. It not only promotes the product to be standardized, but also makes the certification work itself continue to improve. China's CCC certification is gradually standardized and mature after many years of introduction. Adopting the “certification” process, which is gradually standardized, will lay a solid foundation for the healthy development of the LED industry and provide reliable and long-term protection for the national demonstration project of semiconductor lighting.

Certification is to require or supervise the continuous and stable production of products that meet the requirements of the standard through technical means such as type tests and factory inspections. The industry chain of semiconductor lighting is very long. Compared with traditional lighting products, the production process flow, key processes, and process control of semiconductor lighting products are all different. As there is no uniform specification standard for semiconductor lighting products, the same kind of The quality control requirements of different products between different companies will also be different; through safety and energy conservation certification, the company will help establish an effective quality assurance system, better control product quality, and prevent and eliminate the production of products and type test qualified The occurrence of inconsistent samples.

Yu Anqi said that the LED lighting electrical appliance standards include safety, performance and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), which are classified according to the requirements of different products. Generally, they are first certified for safety and electromagnetic compatibility, and then the energy-saving certification. Moreover, the certification process, in addition to the inspection of the submitted products, as well as regular factory inspections to ensure quality. Product production and inspection processes, as well as key components that affect product safety and performance, are critical. Product production and inspection links require the establishment of effective factory quality control requirements. And truly doing these two certification activities is like a double insurance on the quality of LED lighting products, which will ultimately promote the standardization, health, and normal development of the LED industry.

Imperfect but very awesome

How to formulate scientific and reasonable technical requirements for semiconductor lighting products, to adapt it to the development of semiconductor lighting industry in China for a long period of time, and to promote the development of industry technology, is one of the problems we face. If you thoroughly analyze the technical specifications of LED lighting products released by CQC, some experts may not think it is perfect, but "it is based on the characteristics of China's LED products, and will gradually be in line with international certification," Huang Jie said.

Yu Anqi made a detailed interpretation of the three LED lighting product certification specifications:

Reflective self-ballasted LED lamp is a directional light source product, which belongs to a form of self-ballasted LED lamp for general lighting. The kind of LED lamp that replaces ordinary incandescent lamp is not included in the scope of this certified product. Internally, this is mainly due to the fact that LED bulb products are still in the process of development. There is a wide variety of products and no uniform standardization has been established. CQC is currently conducting research together with testing organizations. In the future, the application prospects of such products will be even greater. In addition, in terms of test methods, more considerations are given to the method of accelerated life span in the world. Of course, this is still a draft. Our rules have not yet fully incorporated these, and we may think that the test method is not yet mature. In general, the content of standards that have been promulgated internationally is basically covered in the certification rules and is still relatively advanced in China.

LED downlight energy-saving certification specifications are good. LED downlights belong to CCC-certified lighting products and have already carried out the safety and EMC certification of such products, laying a good foundation for the next energy-saving certification. LED into the indoor lighting, downlight should be a more promising product, in addition, IEC also plans to develop LED downlight related performance standards.

LED road/tunnel lighting products are still a little distance away from the existing test methods and standards, which are mainly issues of production details and product categories. There are various types of road lighting products, such as two sides, unilateral, symmetrical, crossing cloth lights, etc. There are also many kinds of tunnel lighting, center, two sides and so on. The verification rules still need to be improved in terms of the match between the test results and the expected use results. However, the rules for EMC, EMI, and EMS are still clear.

“Certification work is a normative work. At present, this is only the first step towards normalization. Norms require processes and cannot be achieved in one step. However, insisting on going like this leads to the introduction of international advanced achievements, continuous updating and improvement, and a natural standardization over time. It's up," Yu Anqi said.

Introduce and go out

There is a very interesting phenomenon, CQC three LED lighting energy-saving certification have adopted the "CIE 127 LED test method", rather than the national standard "GB/T 24824-2009 LED module test methods for general lighting." In this regard, Yu Anqi and Huang Jie voted in favor.

Huang Jie said: "Since LED has been used as a lighting source, there has been no official test method for it until the publication of "CIE 127 LED Test Method" in 1997, which fills the gap in the LED test method. "CIE 127 LED Test Method It has also been continuously revised, and in 2007 it issued new standards and has credibility in the international arena. China is also actively formulating relevant standards in LED inspection, such as the “Test Methods for LED Modules for General Lighting” promulgated in 2009. More targeted and less applicable."

Yu Anqi also believes that the "CIE 127 LED Test Method" provides stricter regulations, and that adopting this standard is more internationally acceptable and has a higher reputation. Its regulations are also equivalent to many performance standards in China. “Especially in terms of spatial heterogeneity and photometric measurement of color, CIE 127 is more complete.”

“China is a big exporter of lighting. The emergence of LED still cannot change this kind of situation. There will still be a lot of exports. For enterprises, it is very important to be consistent with international standards. If you engage in a set, you will only give yourself. Setting up a wall consumes social resources and hurts corporate interests. Of course, we also encourage innovation, but our innovation should also achieve more international recognition,” said Yu Anqi.

The advanced things are the common wealth of mankind. In the field of LED, we must also uphold Mr. Lu Xun's "taking theism." We must not be arrogant, completely disregard the internationally existing and latest achievements, and we must not rely on ourselves. We can also spread our advanced experience to the international community.
