RE5: Proposal for amendment 6
Document WP.29/2021/51
22 December 2020

Proposal to clarify and update RE5, including

  1. to introduce a new light emitting diode (LED) substitute light source category H11/LED/6 for road illumination applications
  2. to measure luminous flux and references to the internal shield for applicable filament light source categories
  3. to add specifications for H7, H8/H8B, H11/H11B, H16/H16B and H18 light source categories with respect to the ā€œgā€ parameter
  4. to add a definition for light centre and associated amendment to the specification of the LR4 light source category
  5. the use restriction for light emitting diode (LED) light source categories LW2, LW3, and LW5
  6. specifications for Lx3, LR4 and Lx5 light source categories with respect to the cap/holder interface
  7. specifications for specifications for LR1, LW2, L3, LR4, L5, and L1/6 light source categories with respect to test voltage
  8. correcting some details of light source category specifications in the Consolidated Resolution on the common specification of light source categories, and
  9. administrative updates of IEC cap sheet references in light source category specifications.

17. The expert from TF SR submitted a draft amendment to the Consolidated Resolution on the common specification of light source categories (R.E.5) which introduced a new Light Emitting Diode (LED) substitute light source category H11/LED/6 for road illumination applications (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2020/6). GRE adopted this proposal and requested the secretariat to submit it to the March 2021 session of WP.29. GRE also noted the equivalence criteria as amended for light sources used in road illumination applications (GRE-82-03) and requested the secretariat to publish them as a reference document on the GRE website.

19. The expert of GTB introduced proposals for amendments to R.E.5 ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2020/22. GRE adopted the proposals and requested the secretariat to submit them to the March 2021 session of WP.29.
