Comment period for revised CFL standard closing soon
The Committee Draft for Vote (CDV) of IEC 60969 Ed 2, Self-ballasted compact fluorescent lamps for general lighting services - Performance requirements (34/1701/CDV) was published on 1 November 2013 and is scheduled to close on 7 February 2014, according to a statement issued by lites.asia.
As the closing date for voting is approximately one week after the IEC project team meetings being held in Berlin in January 2014, this could lead to a six-month delay in publication of the standard, should it be voted positive. To address this, the project team convenor, Owen Manley, is hosting a special project team meeting on 31 January 2014 in Berlin to evaluate any comments that have been submitted in anticipation that the CDV would be voted positive.
IEC members intending to make comments on 34/1701/CDV should provide comments to Owen Manley as soon as possible for evaluation by the project team in Berlin. Please note that, even if you forward comments to Owen Manley directly, each national committee will still need to register its vote and provide the same comments to the IEC central office by 7 February 2014.
