4. Simplification of lighting and light-signalling Regulations

GRE will be informed about the work of the Informal Working Group “Simplification of the Lighting and Light-Signalling Regulations” (IWG SLR).

GRE-79-08 | UN R53: Proposal for amendments to the 02 series of amendments Proposal prepared by the SLR informal group in cooperation with IMMA to delete definitions in UN R53.02 made redundant because identical definitions already exist in UN R48. The aim of this submission is to confirm UN R48 as the repository for common definitions used across all lighting regulations.
GRE-79-10 | Proposal to introduce transitional provisions in the text of the draft new UN Regulations on LSD, RID and RRD Proposal from the SLR informal group to introduce transitional provisions in documents GRE/2018/2, GRE/2018/3, and GRE/2018/4.
GRE-79-11 | SLR: Proposal to improve the general requirements for the "Change Index" Proposal from the SLR informal group to improve the general requirements proposed in documents GRE/2018/16 and GRE/2018/18.
GRE-79-11 | SLR: Proposal to improve the general requirements for the "Change Index" Proposal from the SLR informal group to improve the general requirements proposed in documents GRE/2018/16 and GRE/2018/18.
GRE-79-11 | SLR: Proposal to improve the general requirements for the "Change Index" Proposal from the SLR informal group to improve the general requirements proposed in documents GRE/2018/16 and GRE/2018/18.
GRE-79-12/Rev.1 | SLR: Explanation of the “Change Index” Because the new lighting device regulations (LSD, RRD, and RID) each cover multiple lighting functions (e.g. direction indicators, marker lamps, DRL in the LSD regulation), the potential exists for a change in stringency to impact some, but not all functions within the scope of each regulation. The change index is proposed in order to track the impact on each function and so restrict the need for new type approvals only to those functions impacted by a change in stringency.

GRE-79-11 | SLR: Proposal to improve the general requirements for the "Change Index" Proposal from the SLR informal group to improve the general requirements proposed in documents GRE/2018/16 and GRE/2018/18.
GRE-79-12/Rev.1 | SLR: Explanation of the “Change Index” Because the new lighting device regulations (LSD, RRD, and RID) each cover multiple lighting functions (e.g. direction indicators, marker lamps, DRL in the LSD regulation), the potential exists for a change in stringency to impact some, but not all functions within the scope of each regulation. The change index is proposed in order to track the impact on each function and so restrict the need for new type approvals only to those functions impacted by a change in stringency.

GRE-79-18/Rev.1 | RID: India comments on the draft new Regulation Proposal for changes to the draft Road Illumination Devices (RID) regulation.
GRE-79-12/Rev.1 | SLR: Explanation of the “Change Index” Because the new lighting device regulations (LSD, RRD, and RID) each cover multiple lighting functions (e.g. direction indicators, marker lamps, DRL in the LSD regulation), the potential exists for a change in stringency to impact some, but not all functions within the scope of each regulation. The change index is proposed in order to track the impact on each function and so restrict the need for new type approvals only to those functions impacted by a change in stringency.
GRE-79-22 | India’s comments on underlying principles of approval marking for LSD regulation Proposal for a marking requirement for lamps to be approved under the LSD regulation. This proposal is to take care of specific concerns being observed in the marking of the combined lamps for identification, indication of particular series of amendment for each device and to take care of certain difficulties as seen in the proposal submitted by IWG-SLR document no GRE-78-35-Rev.1.

GRE-79-16 | Report of the Substitute/Replacement Light Sources task force
GRE/2017/14 | Proposal to introduce requirements for the use of light-emitting diode substitute light sources in the new Regulation on Light-Signalling Devices Proposal to introduce the following changes into the draft new Regulation on light-signalling devices:<ol><li>Use of LED substitute light source(s) is allowed and does not constitute a change of the lamp type. However, lamp performances shall be tested during type approval also with the LED substitute light source. Approval of the lamp using filament light source(s) is a prerequisite for approval of the lamp using LED substitute light source(s).</li><li>COP testing of the lamp is required with an (etalon) filament light source only, because the LED substitute is the counterpart light source of the filament light source, resulting in equivalent photometrical lamp performance. The quality i.e. the equivalence to the filament light source, is controlled in R128.</li><li>Use of LED substitute light sources is at the discretion of the applicant, who shall declare this use, if any, to the Approval Authorities at the time of application for the first lamp approval or subsequent extension of approval issued for the version using the LED substitute light source.</li><li>The use of LED substitute light source(s) in a certain lamp type shall be indicated on the lamp by marking of the LED substitute light source category, in addition to the marking of the filament light source of which the LED substitute light source is the counterpart.</li><li>This marking on the lamp will be used for checking the allowance for use of lamps with LED substitute light sources in application of the Regulation on lamps installation on vehicle.</li><li>In case a lamp with colour filter(s) is approved for using LED substitute light source(s), this lamp shall be marked “G” to indicate that this lamp shall be equipped with LED substitute light source(s) marked “G” for colour and luminous intensity quality reasons.</li><li>The indication of both the filament light source and of its LED counterpart light source, if any, shall be explicitly provided in the communication form.</li></ol>
GRE/2017/15 | Proposal to introduce requirements for the use of replaceable light emitting diode light sources for forward lighting in the new Regulation on Road Illumination Devices Proposal to introduce requirements for replaceable light-emitting diode (LED) light sources for forward lighting in the new Regulation on Road Illumination Devices (RID). As the Informal Working Group "Simplification of the Lighting and Light-Signalling Regulations" (IWG SLR) continues working on the new RID Regulation, it is not possible to indicate all detailed modifications that will be required to incorporate the replaceable LED light sources for forward lighting. However, in general, only simple editorial changes will be required. Further work is required to identify the changes that will be required in the annexes.
GRE-78-04 | Correction to the proposal for RID LED substitute light source requirements (GRE/2017/14) Request to delete the amendment to paragraph 3.3.4.1.1. in the proposal to introduce requirements for the use of light-emitting diode substitute light sources in the new Regulation on Light-Signalling Devices.
