| Specific Aspects for the Inspection of LED Replacement Light Sources |
| Reference Number: PTI-43-05 |
|
LED replacement light sources without type approval are being sold online and offline and are unsafe for public roads; vehicles equipped with such products would fail PTI. LED replacement light sources with type approval are available either at national level or according to UN R37, and are safe and legal for public roads; vehicles equipped with approved LED replacement light sources shall NOT fail PTI. Approval marking on installed light sources is not accessible during PTI; verification may involve a sticker on headlamp housing, type approval documents, or packaging, with removal of the light source as a last resort to verify the approval marking. |
| Meeting Sessions: 43rd PTI session (8 May) |
| Document date: 12 May 26 |
| Relevant to: UN Regulation No. 37 | Filament Lamps, United Nations Agreement | 1997 Agreement on Periodical Technical Inspections, and United Nations Agreement | Resolution on the common specification of light source categories (RE 5) |

| Electromagnetic Compatibility: Agenda for the 52nd (May 2026) session |
| Reference Number: EMC-52-01/Rev.2 |
|
The IWG-EMC 52nd meeting is scheduled for 7 May 2026 as a web conference. The agenda includes feedback from the GRE 94th session regarding Supplement 3 to UN R10.07 and discussion of the roadmap for 08 series of amendments with proposals from Contracting Parties and non-governmental organizations. The session will address GRE-94-56-Rev.2 and documents covering topics such as harmonics limits, charging conditions, immunity requirements, and radiated requirements. The next meeting is scheduled for 1–2 July 2026 in Paris. |

| UN R10: Proposal for items to be included in the 08 series |
| Reference Number: EMC-52-07 |
|
Proposal to establish items for the 08 series of UN R10: address immunity-related functions required by multiple UN Regulations through discussion of whether to include these features in UN R10 or relocate electromagnetic compatibility provisions to individual UN Regulations; amend test procedures for complex systems including steer-by-wire, brake-by-wire, and ADAS features to establish clear protocols and reduce unlevel playing field items; improve the general approval process through precise vehicle type description and definition of high-level objectives; describe dwell time selection through ISO standard 1154 as minimum; discuss ISO 17025 evaluation principles; discuss antenna position at 3m versus 10m for best-case and worst-case scenarios; and require robust electromagnetic compatibility protection with critical details described in test reports and information documents. |

| UN R10: Radiated emission testing requirements in the frequency range 1-6 GHz |
| Reference Number: EMC-52-06 |
|
Proposal to add radiated emission testing requirements in the frequency range 1 GHz to 6 GHz. New clause 6.2.2.5 specifies limits for vehicle measurements at 3.0 ± 0.05 m antenna distance using peak and average detectors, with limits of 70/50 dB(V/m) for 1000–3000 MHz and 74/54 dB(V/m) for 3000–6000 MHz. New Annex XY describes test methods using IEC 61000-6-3 Ed.4.0 and CISPR 12 provisions. New clause 6.5.3 establishes ESA broadband type approval limits with higher thresholds. New Annex XZ prescribes ESA measurement methods, including test arrangements for REESS charging mode coupled to the power grid. |
