A luminaire is an appliance emits light by distributing, transmitting or changing one or more light sources. It includes all essential components to support, fix and protect light source, as well as the necessary circuit auxiliary devices and devices to connect them to the power source, but not include the light source itself. The main types of lighting lamps and their control devices include lamps, general lamps, adjustable lamps, combination lamps, fixed lamps, movable lamps, recessed lamps, etc.

Ordinary lamps: lamps that provide protection against accidental contact with live parts, but without dust-proof, anti-intermediate foreign objects or waterproof protection.

General lamps: lamps not designed for special purposes.

Adjustable lamps: Lamps whose main parts can be rotated or moved by using joints, lifting devices, telescopic tubes or similar devices.

Combination lamps: a lamp that is a combination of a basic lamp and other parts which can be replaced. Or a lamp that combines with other parts in different ways.

Fixed lamps: a lamp that cannot be easily moved or they can only be moved by tool.

Movable lamp: A lamp that can be moved from one place to another place when connected to a power source.

Recessed lamp: A lamp that the manufacturer intends to fully or partially embed on the mounting surface.

Blue   light hazard

Photobiology   safety

 

In addition to electrical safety test, lighting products also include photobiology blue light hazard issue.

The photochemical action caused by radiation with wavelengths mainly between 400nm and 500nm can lead potential retinal damage. If radiation time exceeds 10s, this damage mechanism plays a major role, and it is several times as much as the thermal damage mechanism.

Therefore, more and more markets and countries have control requirement on blue light hazard for lighting products.
