EN 55015 – Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for Lighting Equipment
EN 55015 is a European standard that sets the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for lighting equipment. It ensures that LEDs, fluorescent lights, halogen lamps, and other lighting devices do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference (EMI) with other electronic equipment.
This standard is crucial for manufacturers of lighting systems used in commercial, industrial, and military applications, ensuring compliance with EU regulations for electrical safety and electromagnetic emissions.
Why is IEC 62368-1 Important?
- Covers a wide range of electronic equipment, from computers and AV systems to industrial control units.
- Uses a hazard-based safety engineering (HBSE) approach, focusing on risk prevention rather than rigid design rules.
- Ensures fire, electrical, and mechanical safety in both normal and abnormal operating conditions.
- Aligns global safety compliance requirements, making it easier for manufacturers to market their products internationally.
- Reduces electrical shock and overheating risks in high-power and sensitive electronic devices.

Key EMC Testing Under EN 55015
- Radiated Emissions Testing – Measures electromagnetic radiation emitted from lighting equipment.
- Conducted Emissions Testing – Assesses electromagnetic noise in power cables and wiring.
- Interference with Communication Systems – Ensures lighting products do not disrupt radio, TV, or wireless communication signals.
- Harmonic Distortion & Flicker Testing – Evaluates power quality effects caused by lighting systems.
- Immunity Testing – Ensures lighting equipment remains functional when exposed to external EMI sources.
