AS 61184:2022 PDF

AS 61184:2022 adopts IEC 61184:2017+AMD1:2019 CSV (ED. 4.1) with modifications for Australia, which provides Australian electrical industries with general electrical safety requirements for bayonet lampholders.

AS 61184:2015 will also remain current for three years after the date of publication of this document and after this time it will be superseded by AS 61184:2022. Regulatory authorities that reference this document in regulation may apply these requirements at a different time. Users of this document should consult with these authorities to confirm their requirements.

This document will also operate in parallel with AS/NZS 3117, Approval and test specification—Bayonet lampholders.

While this document (AS 61184:2022) and AS/NZS 3117 operate in parallel, they are separate standalone documents and the chosen Standard (i.e. AS 61184 or AS/NZS 3117) is applied in its entirety. The interchanging of requirements from each Standard is not permitted to determine overall compliance of a bayonet lampholder, except when either Standard specifically references the other Standard’s requirements.

The objective of this document is to specify particular requirements for bayonet lampholders used in general purpose lighting.

The essential safety requirements of AS/NZS 3820, Essential safety requirements for electrical equipment, that could be applicable to bayonet lampholders are covered by this document, taken in conjunction with any other relevant requirements affecting safety.
