EN IEC 55015 applies to the emissions (radiated and conducted) of radio frequency disturbances from the following types of products and equipment:
All lighting equipment with a primary function of generating and/or distributing light intended for illumination purposes and intended either for connection to the low voltage electricity supply or for battery operation
The lighting part of multi-function equipment where one of the primary functions of this is illumination
Independent auxiliaries exclusively for use with lighting equipment
UV and IR radiation equipment
Neon advertising signs
Street/flood lighting intended for outdoor use
Transport lighting (installed in buses and trains)
The frequency range covered is 9 kHz to 400 GHz. Multi-function equipment which is subjected simultaneously to different clauses of this standard and/or other standards shall meet the provisions of each clause/standard with the relevant functions in operation. The limits in this standard have been determined on a probabilistic basis to keep the suppression of disturbances within economically reasonable limits while still achieving an adequate level of radio protection and electromagnetic compatibility. In exceptional cases, additional provisions may be required.
EN IEC 55015 is a harmonized standard and can be used to show compliance if applicable to the EU EMC Directive 2014/30/EU
Excluded from the scope of this EN/IEC 55015 are:
Lighting equipment operating in the ISM frequency bands (as defined in Resolution 63 (1979) of the ITU Radio Regulation)
Lighting equipment for aircraft and airports
Apparatus for which the electromagnetic compatibility requirements in the radio-frequency range are explicitly formulated in other EU IEC or CISPR standards. NOTE Examples are:
Built-in lighting devices in other equipment, for example scale illumination or neon devices
Photocopiers
Slide projectors
Lighting equipment for road vehicles
