Insulation and electric strength testing of luminaires

Electronic LED drivers can be damaged by high voltage. This has to be considered during the routine testing of the luminaires in production.

According to IEC 60598-1 Annex Q (informative only!) or ENEC 303-Annex A, each luminaire should be submitted to an insulation test with 500VDC for 1 second. This test voltage should be connected between the interconnected phase and neutral terminals and the earth terminal. The insulation resistance must be at least 2MΩ.

As an alternative, IEC 60598-1 Annex Q describes a test of the electrical strength with 1,500VAC (or 1,414 x 1,500VDC). To avoid damage to the electronic LED drivers this test must not be conducted.

89899865 Wiring instructions

• The 89899865 terminals, battery, indicator LED and test switch terminals are classified as SELV. Keep the wiring of the DALI and the input terminals separated from the wiring of the SELV terminals or consider special
wiring (double insulation, 6 mm creepage and clearance) when these connections should be kept SELV.

• The output to the LED is DC but has high frequency content at 125 kHz, which should be considered for good EMC compliance.

• 89899865 leads should be separated from the mains and DALI
connections and wiring for good EMC performance.

• Maximum lead length on the 89899865 terminals is 3 m. For a good EMC performance keep the LED wiring as short as possible.

• The secondary wires (LED module) should be routed in parallel to ensure good EMC performance.

• Maximum lead length for the test switch and Indicator LED connection is 1 m. The test switch and Indicator LED wiring should be separated from the 89899865 leads to prevent noise coupling.

• Battery leads are specified with 0.5 mm2 cross section and a length of < 1.3 m.

• Switched live and unswitched live supplies must be off the same phase.

• To avoid the damage of the control gear, the wiring must be protected against short circuits to earth (sharp edged metal parts, metal cable clips, louver, etc.).

Further technical data

The EM powerLED has a unique power regulation circuit; this is designed to limit the total power drawn from the battery in the event of using LED’s with a forward voltage (Vf) higher than 3.4 V.

In such cases the unit will reduce the LED current in order to maintain an acceptable drain current from the battery and hence meet the required duration time. This feature enables the EM powerLED to have minimum battery
count for a given range of LED’s.

At a low charge state of the battery (<1.5 V at the 1 W driver and <3 V at the 2 W driver) the LED will not be driven in maintained mode via the switched line until the rated battery voltage levels are exceeded.

Batteries

Connection method: 4.8 x 0.5 mm spade tag welded to end of cell

For stick packs this connection is accessible after the battery caps have been fitted.

To inhibit inverter operation disconnect the batteries by removing the connector from the battery spade tag.

For further information refer to corresponding battery datasheet.

Short-circuit protection

In case of a short circuit the battery protection opens the connection to the driver and the output is therefore free of voltage. The output will be reactivated again when the short circuit is removed.

Storage, installation and commissioning

Relevant information about storage conditions, installation and commissioning are provided in the battery datasheets.

Miscellaneous

Mains-connected transformers

The 89899865 does not contain mains-connected windings of transformers.

LED emergency modules are critical safety components designed to provide backup power (typically 3 hours) to LED fixtures during power failures, ensuring compliance with safety regulations in commercial and residential settings. These units, which often include Ni-Cd or NiMH batteries, feature deep discharge protection, automatic charging, and compatibility with various drivers for maintained or non-maintained operation.

Modes of Operation:

Maintained: The LED stays on at all times, using mains power normally and switching to battery during outages.
Non-Maintained: The LED remains off, activating only when the mains power fails.

Key Features and Functionality

Components: Modules include a rechargeable battery (often Ni-Cd or Lithium-ion), a charging circuit, and an LED status indicator.

Duration: Provide 3 hours of illumination during power cuts.

Operation Types: Available in Maintained (operates normally, stays on during power failure) and Non-Maintained (only turns on during power failure).

Voltage Range: Compatible with a wide range of LED drivers (e.g., 3-55V, 110v-240v).

Safety & Monitoring: Include deep discharge protection and a green LED indicator to show charging/functional status.

Installation: Designed for easy integration within existing luminaires, including panel lights and bulkheads.

Installation and Maintenance

Process: Requires disconnecting mains power, installing the module between the LED driver and panel, and connecting a permanent live feed for battery charging.

Testing: Manual testing via a button, with some models offering automatic self-tests (monthly/annual).

Compliance: Designed to meet safety regulations for public buildings, offices, hospitals and warehouses.

Technical Specifications

Backup Time: Typically 3 hours (180 minutes).

Compatibility: Suitable for 5-60W LED lamps.

Indicators: A green LED indicates charging/mains power; red or flashing signals usually indicate a fault or test mode.

These modules are essential in hospitals, offices, and warehouses to prevent panic and guide occupants during blackouts
