DOE Part III-LED产品测试流程标准翻译：Page-14
能源部同意测试程序需要更多的细节，以明确灯管在整个待机模式测试中必须保持与通信网络的连接。如果灯管断开连接，灯管可能会退出待机模式或以其他方式影响其功率消耗，这将产生不准确的测试结果。因此，能源部在第430部分B附录BB的第5节中增加了细节，规定集成LED灯在测试前必须连接到通信网络，并且在整个测试过程中必须保持连接。能源部没有规定在测试期间灯管与控制系统或中枢的最大距离。DOE要求灯管在整个测试过程中保持连接，以确保如果灯管被移动到一定的距离，使其与通信网络断开，测试结果就无效。DOE agrees that the test procedure needs additional detail to specify that the lamp must remain connected to the communication network through the entirety of the standby mode test. If the lamp becomes disconnected, the lamp may exit standby mode or otherwise have its power consumption impacted, which would yield inaccurate test results. Therefore, DOE is adding detail to section 5 of appendix BB to subpart B of part 430 to specify that the integrated LED lamp must be connected to the communication network prior to testing and must remain connected throughout the entire duration of the test. DOE did not specify a maximum distance the lamp can be from the control system or hub during testing. DOE’s requirement for the lamp to remain connected throughout the entire duration of the test ensures that if a lamp is moved to a distance such that it disconnects from the communication network, the test results are invalid.
CA IOUs还评论说，当灯具与无线网络进行通信时，连接的灯具可能会出现周期或功率波动，因此测试程序应特别提供指示，在至少5分钟的测试时间内，在平均功率指标中说明这一点。(CA IOUs, No. 44 at p. 3) DOE指出，IEC 62301的第5节给予制造商灵活性，选择最适用于其产品电源性质的测量方法。此外，IEC 62301中可使用的每一种方法都规定，产品必须有至少十分钟的测试时间，这是一个足够的测试时间，以确保瓦特的波动已经被记录。
CA IOUs also commented that connected lamps may experience cycles or power fluctuations when lamps are communicating with the wireless network, so the test procedure should specifically provide instructions to account for this in an average power metric over a minimum five minute test duration. (CA IOUs, No. 44 at p. 3) DOE notes that section 5 of IEC 62301 gives manufacturers the flexibility to choose the measurement method that best applies to the nature of their products’ power supply. Further, each of the methods available for use in IEC 62301 specify that the product must have test durations of at least ten minutes, which is an adequate test duration to ensure wattage fluctuations have been recorded.
最后，加州的IOUs为DOE提供了几个一般性建议，以加强测试程序的待机部分。他们建议能源部审查欧盟第801/2013号条例20，该条例在家用电子设备的待机功率测量方面取得了进展。此外，CA IOUs建议DOE对连接的灯具进行测试，根据测试结果和CA IOUs的建议进一步发展测试程序。(CA IOUs, No. 44 at p. 3)
Lastly, CA IOUs provided several general recommendations for DOE to enhance the standby portion of the test procedure. They recommended DOE review EU Regulation 801/2013,20 which has made advancements in standby power measurements for household electronic equipment. Additionally, CA IOUs advised DOE to conduct testing on connected lamps to further develop the test procedure based on the results from testing and CA IOUs’ suggestions. (CA IOUs, No. 44 at p. 3)
能源部感谢加州IOUs对待机模式测试程序的反馈。DOE指出，如前所述，法规要求它考虑IEC 62301或IEC 62087，以建立待机模式功耗的测试程序。因此，如果DOE要包括欧盟法规801/2013的规定，这将是DOE确定的补充材料，对于准确测量LED灯的待机功耗是必要的。DOE审查了欧盟条例801/2013，发现它与IEC 62301有一些相似之处。例如，欧盟条例801/2013指出测试要在环境温度下进行，指示测试装置要进入待机状态进行测试，并要求灯在整个测试过程中保持与网络连接。DOE的测试程序，参考了IEC 62301，也包括这些指示。虽然欧盟条例801/2013涉及如何测试具有多个网络连接的产品，但DOE目前没有发现任何具有多个网络端口的集成LED灯。在审查中，DOE没有在EU Regulation 801/2013中发现任何可以更准确地测量待机模式功率的指示，因此，DOE没有将EU Regulation 801/2013中的具体方法添加到该测试程序中。DOE指出，它对连接的灯具进行了测试21，并利用测试结果（如修改后的稳定标准）、利益相关者的建议以及对可在待机模式下运行的商用LED灯的额外研究，适当地修改了该测试程序。
DOE appreciates the feedback from CA IOUs on the standby mode test procedure. DOE notes it is required by statute, as previously mentioned, to consider IEC 62301 or IEC 62087 to establish test procedures for standby mode power consumption. Thus, if DOE were to include provisions from EU Regulation 801/2013, it would be supplementary material that DOE has determined is necessary for accurately measuring the standby power consumption of LED lamps. DOE reviewed EU Regulation 801/2013 and found several similarities between it and IEC 62301. For example, EU Regulation 801/2013 indicates tests are to be conducted at ambient temperatures, directs the test unit to be put into a standby state for testing, and requires the lamp to remain connected to the network throughout testing. DOE’s test procedure, which references IEC 62301, also includes these directions. Although EU Regulation 801/2013 addresses how to test products with multiple network connections, DOE has not identified any integrated LED lamps at this time with multiple network ports. In its review, DOE did not find any instruction in EU Regulation 801/2013 that would more accurately measure standby mode power and, therefore, DOE is not adding specific methodology from EU Regulation 801/2013 to this test procedure. DOE notes that it conducted testing on connected lamps 21 and modified this test procedure as appropriate using results from testing (e.g., the modified stabilization criteria), suggestions from stakeholders, and additional research into commercially available LED lamps that can operate in standby mode.
F. 基本模型、最小样本量和代表值的确定 Basic Model, Minimum Sample Size, and Determination of Represented Values
1. 基本模型 Basic Model
在2014年6月的SNOPR中，DOE建议修改10 CFR 430.2中的 "基本模型 "一词，以适用于LED灯；然而，经过进一步审查，DOE在2015年7月的SNOPR中确定，针对集成LED灯的基本模型的修订定义对于一般服务灯的节能来说是不必要的。在2015年7月的SNOPR中决定，针对集成LED灯的基本模型的修订定义对于一般服务灯的节能规则制定来说是没有必要的（见公开文件EERE-2013-BT-STD-0051）。具有不同CCT、CRI或寿命的LED灯如果具有相同的功效，可以被归类为同一基本型号。能源部指出，所有包含在基本模型中的产品必须符合认证值，同一基本模型中的产品在制造商文献中表示时也必须具有相同的光输出和电气特性（包括每瓦流明）。80 FR at 39655.
In the June 2014 SNOPR, DOE proposed to revise the term ‘‘basic model’’ in 10 CFR 430.2 for LED lamps; however upon further review, DOE determined in the July 2015 SNOPR that a revised definition of basic model specific to integrated LED lamps is not necessary for the general service lamp energy conservation rulemaking (see public docket EERE–2013–BT–STD– 0051). LED lamps with different CCT, CRI, or lifetime could be categorized as the same basic model if they have the same efficacy. DOE noted that all products included in a basic model must comply with the certified values, and products in the same basic model must also have the same light output and electrical characteristics (including lumens per watt) when represented in manufacturer literature. 80 FR at 39655.
2. 最小样本量Minimum Sample Size
在2015年7月的SNOPR中，DOE坚持其建议，要求至少有十个LED灯的样本量。DOE建议，必须对至少十个LED灯进行测试，以确定输入功率、流明输出、功效、功率因数、CCT、CRI、寿命和待机模式功率。80 FR at 39655- 56. 能源部还建议429.11(a)的一般要求也适用，但样品必须由生产单位组成。80 FR at 39664. 关于将所有10个灯管纳入报告结果，DOE在2015年7月的SNOPR中坚持认为，LED灯管故障不应豁免报告，因为这有可能误导消费者，特别是在灯管寿命方面。80 FR at 39656.
In the July 2015 SNOPR, DOE maintained its proposal to require a sample size of at least ten LED lamps. DOE proposed that a minimum of ten LED lamps must be tested to determine the input power, lumen output, efficacy, power factor, CCT, CRI, lifetime, and standby mode power. 80 FR at 39655– 56. DOE also proposed that the general requirements of 429.11(a) are applicable except that the sample must be comprised of production units. 80 FR at 39664. Regarding inclusion of all 10 lamps in the reported results, DOE maintained in the July 2015 SNOPR that LED lamp failure should not be exempt from reporting because this would potentially mislead consumers, particularly with respect to lamp lifetime. 80 FR at 39656.
3. 代表值的确定Determination of Represented Values
在2015年7月的SNOPR中，DOE提出了计算方法，以确定CCT、流明输出、功效、功率因数和CRI的代表值，使用置信度下限（LCL）方程式，以及输入功率和待机模式功率，使用置信度上限（UCL）方程式。80 FR at 39656- 57. 由能源之星以及太平洋天然气和电力公司（以下简称PG&E）、合作标签和家电标准计划（以下简称CLASP）和加州照明技术中心（以下简称CLTC）提供的LED灯测试数据被用来得出每个指标的信心水平和样本最大除数。由于认证测试被允许在一个测试实验室进行，样本集不太可能包括实验室之间的差异。因此，正如2015年7月SNOPR中所述，当建立基于认证测试的评级要求时，DOE在计算除数时不包括实验室间的变异性参数，因为制造商选择实验室来进行这种测试。80 FR at 39657. 对每个LCL和UCL计算的说明如下。
In the July 2015 SNOPR, DOE proposed calculations to determine represented values for CCT, lumen output, efficacy, power factor, and CRI using a lower confidence limit (LCL) equation, and input power and standby mode power using an upper confidence limit (UCL) equation. 80 FR at 39656– 57. LED lamp test data provided by ENERGY STAR as well as Pacific Gas and Electric Company (hereafter referred to as PG&E), the Collaborative Labeling and Appliance Standards Program (hereafter referred to as CLASP), and California Lighting Technology Center (hereafter referred to as CLTC) were used to derive the confidence level and sample maximum divisor for each metric. Because certification testing is permitted to take place at one test laboratory, the sample set is unlikely to include inter-lab variability. Therefore, as stated in the July 2015 SNOPR, DOE does not include an inter-lab variability parameter in its calculation of the divisor when establishing rating requirements that are based on certification testing for which the manufacturer chooses the lab to conduct such testing. 80 FR at 39657. Descriptions of each of the LCL and UCL calculations are provided as follows.
