Proposal to introduce a new light emitting diode (LED) forward lighting light source category L1/6. The proposal is part of a package which also includes amendments to Regulation No. 128. 2. GTB proposes one category L1/6 with “maximum test temperature” 65 °C. The definition of the maximum test temperature is necessary to ensure interchangeability between approved light sources from different manufacturers. A separate (unique) light source category is specified for every “maximum test temperature”. The choice of installation of a light source with a given maximum test temperature is based on the application in the vehicle and determined by due diligence of the car maker and set maker, in the same way as is now the case with LED modules.

Proposal to introduce new light-emitting diode (LED) substitute light source categories C5W/LED, PY21W/LED and R5W/LED. This proposal is part of a package which also includes amendments to Regulation No. 128.

Proposal to introduce requirements and test specifications for light emitting diode (LED) light sources for forward lighting.

Proposal to introduce requirements and test specifications for light emitting diodes (LED) substitute light sources, including to

1. introduce provisions for LED substitute light sources into Regulation No. 128;
2. introduce new category sheets C5W/LED, PY21W/LED and R5W/LED based on LED technology into the Consolidated Resolution (R.E.5);
3. establish equivalence criteria as guidance for specifying sheets for LED substitute light source categories. (These guidelines are intended for publication, with the agreement of GRE, on the GRE website under “reference documents”, similar to criteria for new filament light sources for head lighting (GRE-77-04). In addition, these criteria are being prepared for insertion in publication IEC 60810.);
introduce equivalence reports for the new categories C5W/LED, PY21W/LED and R5W/LED in LED technology (see GRE-77-02).
