Hi Art,
Don't know about IEC 60357, but IEC 950, clause 4.1.5 describes
"high-pressure" lamp as one in which the pressure exceeds 0.2 MPa
(1500 Torr) when cold or 0.4 MPa (3000 Torr) when operating.
One would hope that the definition for "high-pressure" would be
consistent from one IEC standard to another IEC standard.
Regards,
Frank Dominguez

Hello all,
I'm presently involved in a decorative lamp project (IEC 60558-1 and -2-4)
which utilizes a 24 Watt, 12 Volt tungsten-halogen lamp.
The question is: What is the definition of high pressure and low pressure
with respect to tungsten halogen lamps, as defined in IEC 60357, Paragraph
9.1 ??? (I'm reluctant to purchase the standard for this one bit of
information)
ThanX, Art Michael
