Documentation
WP.29-171-03
Proposals for amendments to clarify requirements for light sources in lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to the draft UN Regulation No. 0 (EU)
Proposals for amendments to clarify requirements for light sources in lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to the draft UN Regulation No. 0
Proposals for amendments to Regulations Nos. 4, 6, 7, 19, 23, 38, 48, 50, 77, 87, 91, 98, 112, 113, 119, 123 to clarify requirements for light sources in lighting and light-signalling Regulations listed in Annex 4 to UN Regulation No. 0. The proposed UN R0 on whole vehicle type approval requires submission of approval certificates for components and systems. Vehicle manufacturers work directly with UN R48 approvals, but lamp and device approvals are generally handled by lighting suppliers. UN R48 includes provisions for listing approvals of lighting units, but not for approvals of light sources (presently UN R37, R99, and R128). This set of proposed amendments introduces provisions for light-source approvals under the device regulations.
WP.29-171-04
Proposal to amend the proposal for Supplement 7 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 113 (EU)
Proposal to amend the proposal for Supplement 7 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 113
Proposal to remove the amendment to the heat test cycle related to the movement of the passing beam proposed in the draft supplement (document WP.29/2017/39). The EU views the proposed test cycle changes (based on document GRE/2016/32) as a substantial revision of the procedure amounting to a new requirement. Therefore, the EU will only agree to the proposed Supplement 7 to the 01 series if the requirement concerning the heat test cycle is removed from the proposal WP.29/2017/39.
WP.29/2017/39
Proposal for Supplement 7 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 113
Proposal for Supplement 7 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 113
Proposal to:
correct provisions on bend lighting for motorcycles adopted by WP.29 as Supplement 2 (document WP.29/2012/83),
reference the compliance requirements for installation contained in Regulations Nos. 48, 53, 72 and 86,
clarify the definition of “type”, with regard to manufacturer, trade names and marks,
introduce editorial improvements to the requirements for markings,
amend the formula for the dirt mixture used in testing to address an error introduced by Supplement 9 to the 01 series of amendments to UN R45,
clarify the test cycle with regard to the stability of photometric performance during the heat test, with particular reference to the movement of the cut-off line, and
harmonize related requirements across Regulations Nos. 19, 98, 112, 113 and 123.
This proposal consolidates the regulation prior to its being “frozen” and superseded by the three new comprehensive regulations (forward lighting, light-signalling, and retro-reflective devices) drafted under the Simplification of Lighting Regulations program.
