    Preface


    This is the third edition of CSA C819, Performance of general service fluorescent lamps. It supersedes the previous editions published in 2011 and 1995.


    The following revisions are included in this new edition:


    a) types of lamps covered by this Standard have been updated;


    b) references and definitions have been updated; and


    c) efficacy levels have been revised.


    This Standard aligns with the US Department of Energy (DOE) final rule on general service fluorescent lamps (GSFL) published on January 26, 2015 (10 CFR Part 430).


    CSA Group acknowledges that the development of this Standard was made possible, in part, by the financial support of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), BC Hydro, Manitoba Hydro, Efficiency One, Hydro-Québec, the Canadian Electricity Association (CEA), and SaskPower.


    This Standard has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.

    This Standard applies to

    d) any instant-start lamp, commonly referred to as 8-ft slimline lamps, with single-pin bases of 2400 mm (96 in) nominal overall length and a rated wattage of 49 W or more;


    e) any straight-shaped lamp, commonly referred to as 4-ft miniature bipin standard output lamps, with miniature bipin bases, between 1143 and 1200 mm (45 and 48 in) nominal overall length and a rated wattage of 25 W or more; and

    1.5

    The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only.
