IEC 60809:2023 Lamps for road vehicles- Dimensional, electrical and luminous requirements

IEC 60809:2023 is an international standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that specifies dimensional, electrical, and luminous requirements for lamps used in road vehicles. It applies to a range of vehicle lamps, including filament lamps and discharge lamps, which are commonly used in headlamps, fog lamps, signal lamps, and other lighting systems of road vehicles. The standard serves as a foundational reference for ensuring the basic performance and compatibility of vehicle lamps across different manufacturers and regions.

In terms of specific requirements, the standard details precise dimensional tolerances to ensure lamps fit correctly into corresponding lighting fixtures. It also outlines electrical performance criteria such as rated voltage, power consumption, and current characteristics to guarantee stable operation with vehicle electrical systems. Additionally, it defines luminous performance requirements including luminous flux, color temperature, and light distribution, which are critical for ensuring adequate visibility and safety during vehicle operation. These requirements provide clear guidelines for lamp manufacturers, testing institutions, and automotive industry stakeholders.
