Updates to UN R99 tables concerning certain references to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) publications. The text is based upon UN R99 up to and including draft Supplement 7 (document WP.29/2011/101).
54. GRE adopted GRE-67-02, correcting an editorial error, as reproduced below, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 an AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions as draft Corrigendum 1 to Revision 5 of UN Regulation No. 6.
English version only, Annex 2, amend to read:
55. GRE adopted GRE-67-07, tabled by the expert of IEC clarifying the provisions in UN Regulation No. 99, as reproduced in Annex IX, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 an AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions as draft Supplement 8 to UN Regulation No. 99.
56. The expert from IMMA introduced GRE-67-14 and GRE-67-15, amending the inward visibility angle of front position lamps in UN Regulations Nos. 50 (Position, stop, direction indicator lamps for mopeds and motorcycles) and 53 (Installation of lighting and light-signalling devices for L3 category vehicles). GRE adopted GRE-67-14, as reproduced in Annex VII to the report and GRE-67-15, as reproduced in Annex VIII to the report, and requested the secretariat to submit them to WP.29 an AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions as part of draft Supplement 16 to UN Regulation No. 50 (see para. 25), and as part of draft Supplement 14 to the 01 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 53 (see para. 27).
57. The expert from Germany introduced GRE-67-19, aimed at deleting the provisions regarding distributed lighting systems (DLS) or light generators from UN Regulations Nos. 19, (Front fog lamps), 48 (Installation of lighting and light-signalling) and 98 (Headlamp with gas-discharge light sources). GRE agreed in principle with the proposal, but noted some concerns raised by the experts from Austria, Italy and CLEPA, and invited the expert from Germany to prepare a revised proposal, taking into account the comments, for the October 2012 session.
58. The expert from France introduced a short movie presenting a showcar with a direction indicator varying its appearance during the illumination period. As a general understanding, GRE agreed that according to paragraph 5.9. of Regulation No. 48 (Installation of lighting and light-signalling) the installation of a lamp with an intentional variation of the apparent surface (e.g. direction indicator or other lamps) would not be allowed. However, GRE agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its October 2012 session awaiting a GTB study on this matter.
