IEC 60838-1-2016 pdf download.Miscellaneous lampholders – Part 1: General requirements and tests.
This part of IEC 60838 applies to lampholders of miscellaneous types intended for building-in (to be used with general purpose light sources, projection lamps, floodlighting lamps and street-lighting lamps with caps as listed in Annex A) and the methods of test to be used indetermining the safe use of lamps in lampholders.
This part of IEC 60838 also covers lampholders which are integral with a luminaire. It covers the requirements for the lampholder only.
This part of IEC 60838 also covers lampholders integrated in an outer shell and dome similar to Edison screw lampholders. Such lampholders are further tested in accordance with the relevant clauses of IEC 60238.
Requirements for lampholders for tubular fluorescent lamps, Edison screw lampholders and bayonet lampholders are covered by separate standards.
