The formatting into separately published parts provides for ease of future amendments and revisions. Additional requirements will be added as and when a need for them is recognized. This standard, and the parts which make up IEC 61347-2, in referring to any of the clauses of IEC 61347-1, specify the extent to which such a clause is applicable and the order in which the tests are to be performed; they also include additional requirements, as necessary. All parts which make up IEC 61347-2 are intended to be self-contained and, therefore, do not include references to each other. However, for the case of emergency lighting lamp controlgear, some cross-referencing has been necessary. Where the requirements of any of the clauses of IEC 61347-1 are referred to in this standard by the phrase ”The requirements of clause n of IEC 61347-1 apply”, this phrase is interpreted as meaning that all requirements of the clause in question of part 1 apply, except any which are clearly inapplicable to the specific type of lamp controlgear covered by this particular part of IEC 61347-2.

Particular requirements for electronic ballasts with means of protection against overheating are given in annex C. Particular requirements for a.c./d.c. supplied electronic ballasts for maintained emergency lighting are given in annex J. Performance requirements are the subject of IEC 60929. 2 Normative references For the purpose of this part of IEC 61347, the normative references given in clause 2 of IEC 61347-1 which are mentioned in this standard apply, together with the following normative references.
