Correction to the proposal for a collective amendment to Regulations Nos. 7, 23, 38, 48, 77, 91 and 119. Since the cornering lamp projects a beam to the left and right of the reference axis, it is not relevant to check the photometric values in the reference axis (HV). Therefore, the test point at 2.5°D, 45°L or R shall be used.

Advances in LED lighting raise the prospects for incorporation of lighting into rear registration plates. In 2004, in response to a proposal for the regulation of such plates under UN R48, GRE determined that illuminated plates were not lamps and therefore were outside the scope of UN R48. The Spanish delegation would like to submit this issue again for the consideration of GRE members in order to have a coordinated and common view on this subject.

Revised proposal (removing the section on UN R48 and incorporating corrections noted in document GRE-76-07) to refine the requirements for lamps equipped with several light sources, including in systems fitted with an operating tell-tale that indicates the failure of any one of these light sources. In the case of failure of any one light source in a single lamp containing more than one light source, either the light intensity must comply with the minimum intensity required in the table of standard light distribution in space or, for lamps used in systems where a tell-tale indicates the failure of any one of the light sources, the light intensity in the axis of reference must be at least 50 per cent of the minimum intensity required. This collective amendment addresses Regulations Nos. 7, 23, 38, 77, 91 and 119. The proposals concerning UN R48 will be resubmitted for consideration during the 77th GRE session.

Proposal to correct the terminology in paragraph 5.7.2.1. for consistency across all requirements and to clarify the language in paragraphs 6.2.9., 6.3.6.1.2.1. and 6.3.6.1.2.2. to promote the correct application of the 2,000-lumen limit.
