This standard specifies the performance requirements for ballasts for discharge lamps, including high-pressure mercury lamps, low-pressure sodium lamps, high-pressure sodium lamps and metal halide lamps. Each chapter specifies specific requirements for a particular type of ballast. This standard discusses ballasts for inductive discharge lamps using 50Hz or 60Hz AC power below 1000V. The rated power, size and characteristics of the lamps should comply with the provisions of the corresponding IEC lamp standards. This standard should be used together with GB 19510.10.
