Electrical & thermal safety
Construction, protection and temperature performance in the intended mounting condition.
- Electric-shock protection
- Heating and abnormal operation
- Ingress and material resistance
A system, not only a lamp
Light output, driver behaviour and thermal design must be assessed together.
A good lighting programme explains how safely the product operates and whether its declared optical performance is credible.
We fix the luminaire configuration, driver, control mode, mounting position and stabilisation conditions before measurement. That gives safety, EMC and photometric results a common technical basis.
- Typical products
- Indoor, outdoor, portable, smart and industrial luminaires
- Risk focus
- Shock, heat, fire, optical hazard and unstable output
- Scope drivers
- Mounting, driver, optics, controls and environment
- Useful evidence
- Safety files, performance claims and energy programmes
Optical fingerprint
Turn emitted light into defensible data.
Optical measurements are stabilised and tied to the exact driver, dimming state, temperature and mounting condition used during the test.

Testing coverage
Safety and visible performance measured on the same configuration.
The final scope is confirmed against the product construction, selected standard, market and representative sample configuration.
Photometric performance
Controlled measurement of output, distribution, colour and declared lighting performance.
- Luminous flux and efficacy
- CCT, CRI and chromaticity
- Intensity distribution
Photobiological safety
Assessment of optical radiation exposure and relevant risk-group classification.
- Blue-light hazard
- UV and retinal exposure
- Viewing distance and labelling
EMC, flicker & controls
Electrical behaviour of drivers, dimming interfaces and connected lighting modes.
- Emissions and immunity
- Flicker and stroboscopic effects
- Dimming and smart-control states
Standards & requirements
Safety
Optical
EMC & energy
Requirements matched to luminaire type, mounting and declared performance.
We identify the applicable edition and product-specific clauses before the laboratory programme is fixed.
IEC / EN 60598 series
General and particular safety requirements selected by luminaire construction and intended installation.
CIE, IES & IEC methods
Photometric, colour, flicker and photobiological measurement approaches for declared performance.
CISPR 15 / IEC 61547 and regional rules
Disturbance, immunity, efficiency and market-specific lighting performance obligations.
A controlled laboratory path
From product definition to usable evidence.
Each phase has a clear decision point, helping prevent unnecessary tests and avoid ambiguity in the final report.
- 01Define
Map requirements
Confirm intended use, variants, market, standard and documentation needs.
- 02Prepare
Fix the configuration
Agree representative samples, accessories, ratings and operating modes.
- 03Verify
Run the programme
Complete the agreed checks and communicate material findings as they arise.
- 04Evidence
Issue the report
Organise conclusions and results for engineering or market-access use.
Representative work
Lighting programmes that connect safety with what the user experiences.
Examples of how testing can be structured around different products, configurations and market objectives.
LED luminaire family
Safety and optical baseline
Representative models selected across driver, wattage and enclosure variations.
Connected lighting
Dimming, flicker and EMC scope
Wireless and control states documented before functional, EMC and optical measurements.
Outdoor luminaire
Environmental safety programme
Ingress, temperature, construction and photometric evidence aligned to the installation condition.
