Chaos when the LED industry standard solution? - 2013-06-05 18:58:09

Release from the Ministry of 2013 the young industry standard project plan can be seen in the table, the standard expected completion times in 2014, involving \"LED bulb performance requirements\", \"white LED light color.\" , \"surface-emitting LED lamps technical requirements\", \"LED lighting measurement methods\", \"LED lights - Accelerated Life Evaluation Methods\" five, all recommended industry standards.

Competent authorities within the Ministry for the Consumer Goods Industry, the lead unit for the National Standardization Technical Committee Lighting, drafting Lighting Research Institute of Beijing, Shanghai era\'s Lighting Electronic Testing Co., Ltd. and the National Electric Light Source Quality Supervision and Inspection Center (Beijing) This three research agency. When reporters call the drafting unit, one of the two told reporters that they did not get the exact notice.

Lack of recognition

-
Reporters learned that the current for the LED least GB/T24827-2009 \"road and street lighting performance requirements\", GB/T248 26-2009 \"general lighting LEDs and LED modules terms and definitions\", GB/T24823-2009 \"ordinary LED module lighting performance requirements \"and other 10 national standards were being used, but mostly concentrated in outdoor and commercial lighting, LED lights, downlights, rather LED bulb, LED interior lighting these lamps are not relevant standards promulgated.

\"We mainly produce LED lamp, now there is no standard, we can only do according to customer requirements.\" Shenzhen Lighting Technology Co., Ltd. a wholly Sea Marketing Manager Huang Qi Ge on \"Engineering LED\" told reporters.

The Ministry of Industry on both LED bulb standard solicitation or GB Commission issued a revised plan, aimed at regulating the market, improve product quality and market competitiveness, to fill the current gaps in the LED\'s standards.

But GB Commission issued a \"notice\" can be seen in addition to the \"general lighting LED downlight limited value of energy efficiency and energy efficiency rating\" completion time in 2015, and the remaining time are completed in 2013, -2014, covering LED module , LED stage lights, and many other previously no standard, does not involve field.

For the contents of the amendments, the industry also has a different view.

For the Ministry of solicitation \"LED lights - accelerated life evaluation methods,\" Detection Technology Co., Ltd. of Shenzhen BellSouth Technical Director Tao Jiu Xiang said that it is too early to talk about the accelerated aging test, and even many international experts are not found on accelerated testing methods the accuracy of the basis.

Reporters learned that, in Guangzhou province when benchmarking system certification accelerated aging test proposed causes of the problems is that the current test method LM80 test time must be more than 6000 hours. However, if the implementation of a new test method, you must go through a long-term statistics to identify accelerated aging tests and correspondence between normal light, as if the life time of 35,000 hours, then the test of time in at least four years or more long. So now proposed to develop accelerated aging test method for evaluation of the recognition by the industry is difficult.

In accordance with state regulations, national standards and industrial standards have been managed by the Standards Committee, but in fact standards committee itself does not develop standards of competence, so they generally will choose to standard-setting task onward transport standardization institute, quality inspection centers, laboratories while enterprises can also apply for a standard project, as long as you can through the GB audit committee. But now it is difficult to find in a certain segments of leading enterprises, the industry standard for its project application to get industry-wide recognition. And the Institute to develop a standard for enterprise is labeled \"unrealistic\" label.

Multiple standards \"fight\"

LED industry after years of development, now only in outdoor lighting and commercial lighting a little improvement.

October 1, 2012, the state banned more than 100W incandescent lamp, LED bulb indirectly provide market space, but in fact the role is not obvious. Therefore, in the past most of the LED lighting business will be their target market or overseas to help foreign OEM. \"We only need to consider foreign certification can, GB we have no concern.\" An LED lamps exporters owner said. For export-oriented enterprises, regardless of the national standard, line marked, landmark can not produce on its regulatory role, they are more concerned with UL, CE, ROHS exporter of such certification.

In fact, in addition to those we have seen from the government-led LED industry standard over the past few years, the local government is also actively led the development of local standards.

January 2012, the Guangdong Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau and the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Department will jointly issued the \"LED lighting industry standard system planning and road map\" plan within three years 87 provincial standard revision. Roadmap published, Guangdong Province led the Joint Institute of Standardization on 15 enterprises established standards for LED lighting technology alliance to jointly promote industrial standard system planning and implementation. July 1, 2009, the Guangzhou province for the first time to develop local standards \"Guangdong LED lights local standards,\" officially started.

May 6, 2010, the Jiangxi Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision Organization experts to the province of Jiangxi joint creation Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. and other units of the drafting of the \"interior lighting with LED tube lights\" and \"indoor lighting LED bulb\" province local standards for review, and ultimately passed, and as recommended provincial standard release.

In accordance with the 2012 LED lighting industry in Guangdong Province, local standards foreordained completion of the project plan, all 87 standards in 2013 will be completed before the end of the year, more than half in June 2012 before has been completed. This means that next year in Guangzhou which is the production of LED enterprises both lamps are basically standard to follow, but there will be line marked, landmark multi-standard \"fight\" situation.

Difficult standards

Currently, the state\'s standards for LED broadly divided into two types, one is the mandatory standard, anything involving personal safety of users of the relevant provisions of which are included within the scope of compulsory certification; another was non-mandatory standards, that we often say CQC certification standards, companies can optionally be authenticated.

From the National Standards Commission issued a \"notice\" can be seen, in addition to \"normal lighting with LED spotlights energy efficiency of limited value and energy efficiency rating\" and seven for the mandatory certification outdoor, all the other non-mandatory standards. Simply put, these standards even if there is no announcement for enterprises mandatory binding effect.

Reporter visited a number of LED lighting manufacturers understand that they are industry standards, local standards of attitude has been very ambiguous. On the one hand, there is no standard industry they shouted, leading the LED industry chaos; other hand, they do not wish to standards promulgated, especially low-end product positioning manufacturers. Since the introduction of standards will be strictly defined the product is qualified or not, the consumer will have a basis for judgment.

In addition, LED lighting products prices have been high but also business support for GB ambivalence of the main factors.

\"Usually we do not produce in GB as a reference product, but if the customer is bidding to use, we can do, but the price will be higher.\" An LED lamp factory owner said.

\"Our lamps are standard line, landmark above, so the price is relatively high.\" Kamei era of water marketing general manager Zhou Ming said.

Obviously, if the market once all mandatory GB, lighting costs will increase, many enterprises in order to seize market share price, and do not want to actively participate in the formulation and implementation of national standard.

And in the moment, regardless of the Industry Standard, landmark, most of the time is just a special quality inspection departments or government standard clauses in the RFP.

Take Guangzhou Province landmarks, the few companies strictly enforced, but more of a Guangzhou Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau released the list of failed companies test basis.

\"LED lighting standards not only from the perspective of the development, but also on the lamp beads, the power to regulate such.\" Zhongshan lighting new Bentley Flourish chairman expressed.

In Guangzhou Jing Ying Bai Hong Lighting Co., Ltd. Chief Engineer Zhang candlelight opinion, LED universal standard must be two ways, one is the client, and only up to standard products, consumers can buy; hand from the national level enforcement is not up to the standard they would be forbidden products into distribution channels. \"Enterprises are to maximize the benefits of the product, rely solely on self-discipline, the standard is difficult to completely carry out that decision.\"
