Proposal to introduce new halogen categories H18, H19 and H20, update IEC cap sheet references, and make some minor corrections to existing categories.

Proposal to amend the test procedure for reversing lamps and maneuvering lamps equipped with light sources other than filament lamps. Currently, the lamps are required to meet photometric parameters after one minute and 30 minutes of operation. Under normal use, these lamps are operated for no more than six minutes at a time. This proposal would set the second measurement point at 10 minutes rather than 30 minutes. This change would also align the procedure with SAE standard J1889.1.

Proposal approved by the GRE to correct an error introduced into the regulation through Supplement 16.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to amend the requirements for the mixture in the dirt test.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to introduce the possibility of interdependent lamps for dedicated motorcycle lamps. The proposal reflects recent amendments to Regulations Nos. 6 and 7 and meets the visibility angle requirements of Regulations Nos. 50 and 53. The concern is that the rear trunk lid commonly used for four-wheeled vehicles may be adapted for future scooter type motorcycles to secure the storage space for helmet, etc. Current lamp requirements impose design constraints that may hamper the proper development of such storage features.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to introduce flashing side marker lamps for vehicles of categories M2, M3, N2, N3, O3 and O4 with the objective of improving the safety of vulnerable road users by informing them about the intended turns of buses and heavy goods vehicles and their trailers. This document also makes editorial corrections and aligns UN R48 with UN R19 with regard to the prohibition of the simultaneous use of front fog lamps and other lamps with which the fog lamps are reciprocally incorporated.

Proposal to align UN R48 with UN R107 with regard to the automatic activation of hazard warning lights and with UN R19 with regard to the prohibition of the simultaneous use of front fog lamps and other lamps with which the fog lamps are reciprocally incorporated.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to allow for the installation of interdependent lamps for L3 category vehicles. The amendment also reflects recent amendments to Regulation No. 48, Supplement 2 to its 06 series of amendments and further includes some editorial corrections of current Regulation No. 53 texts. The concern is that the rear trunk lid commonly used for four-wheeled vehicles may be adapted for future scooter type motorcycles to secure the storage space for helmet, etc. Current lamp requirements impose design constraints that may hamper the proper development of such storage features. Please note that the title of this document has been corrected to Supplement 17. Supplement 15 was adopted under Amendment 1 to Revision 3 of UN R53.

Consolidated proposal prepared by the AVLI informal working group to update and revise Regulation No. 86 as approved by the GRE.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to replace the current variety of test mixtures used to simulate dirt during the testing of lamps with a single uniform mixture. In addition, the proposal would replace the term “beech wood” with the phrase “produced from beech wood” to improve clarity.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to introduce a new light-source category: D8R.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to simplify measuring the objective luminous flux of light emitting diode (LED) module(s) and to replace the current variety of test mixtures used to simulate dirt during the testing of lamps with a single uniform mixture. In addition, the proposal would replace the term “beech wood” with the phrase “produced from beech wood” to improve clarity.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to replace the current variety of test mixtures used to simulate dirt during the testing of lamps with a single uniform mixture. In addition, the proposal would replace the term “beech wood” with the phrase “produced from beech wood” to improve clarity. The proposal would also simplify the measurement of the objective luminous flux of light emitting diode (LED) module(s) and correct the ultraviolet (UV) table in the regulation.

According to Regulation No. 119, cornering lamps that are equipped with light sources other than filament lamps, are required to meet the relevant photometric requirements after one minute and after 30 minutes of operation. However, under normal traffic conditions, these lamps are operated for no more than 6 minutes. This proposal as approved by the GRE would would require the second test after 10 minutes instead of the current 30 minutes, in accordance with standard SAE J1889.

Proposal as approved by the GRE to introduce new categories LR3A, LR3B, LR4A, LR4B and correct one value in the ultraviolet (UV) table.

Correction of the title to “Supplement 17” from the erroneous “Supplement 15”.

UNECE secretariat response to the question on preparation (upon the request of a CP) of “former versions of UN Regulation”

OICA input concerning the proposed concept for “versions” of UN Regulations for use within the global system for the mutual recognition of type approvals. A version involves the possibility for issuance of new approvals to previous forms of a given regulation (as opposed to the current system where parties can only issue new approvals to the latest version in force of a regulation).

Correction of errors in certain of the Cap sheet references in the original proposal.

Overview of the concept, structure, and benefits.
