Lamps, LEDs and Circuits 8.10 Lamp coding systems – LBS/ILCOS ILCOS lamp code To support the worldwide identification of compatible lamp types the IEC has produced a generic lamp coding system standard, called the International Lamp Coding System or ILCOS, published in 1993 as IEC TS 61231. The system is directly linked to the IEC standard for specific lamps. The lamp standard has data sheets that are identified by the ILCOS code. ILCOS offers a short code “ILCOS L” that can be expanded, in code, to cover several features of the lamp. The standard code Fig. 8.16 LED lighting providing a distinctive Fig . 8.16 LED lighting provi ding a “ILCOS D” gives the complete designation of the lamp.

The responsibility for maintaining the ILCOS system is with the IEC lamp technical committee. LBS lamp code system In 1994 the Zentralverband Elektrotechnik und Elecktronikindustrie, better known as ZVEI, the Industry Federation in Germany, produced a lamp coding system called Lampenbezeichnungssystem or LBS for short. The codes are widely used by luminaire makers and clients in Europe. The system is of simple codes and has short descriptions and is Fig. 8.17 An LED ground recessed luminaire maintained by ZVEI, but it is not supported by all lamp-makers or by international standards. A selection of ILCOS and equivalent LBS codes with their meanings are given in Table 8.3. 204 | Lamps, LEDs and Circuits Lamps, LEDs and Circuits LBS (ZVEI)
