LED標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的發(fā)展遠(yuǎn)未結(jié)束

　　標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的制定是單調(diào)乏味的工作，但關(guān)鍵要保證性能和安全性的基于LED的照明可以為國(guó)際認(rèn)可的基準(zhǔn)測(cè)試和表征。此外，使用國(guó)際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)鼓勵(lì)更好的照明設(shè)計(jì)和鞏固消費(fèi)者對(duì)LED產(chǎn)品的信心。

　　早期，LED的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)缺乏造成市場(chǎng)混亂。從一個(gè)制造商到另一個(gè)制造商的測(cè)試方法和術(shù)語(yǔ)的變化使得很難比較新的LED產(chǎn)品與其他光源，以及與其他LED產(chǎn)品從不同的制造商。

　　However， in recent years， organizations such as the U.S. Department of Energy （DOE） have worked closely with standards-setting bodies to accelerate the development and implementation of a suite of standards for solid-state lighting （SSL）。 Groups such as the Illuminating Engineering Society （IES）， the National Electrical Manufacturers Association （NEMA）， Underwriters Laboratories （UL）， and the International Electrotechnical Commission （IEC） have been collaborating for over a decade. The result of their labors is a family of standards and methods familiar to engineers working with LEDs. However， the work is far from complete and several additional standards have reached an advanced stage of development.

　　This article summarizes the main standards that apply to contemporary commercial LEDs and LED-lighting fixtures and looks at standards that are currently being drafted and will further improve the quality， reliability， and safety of LEDs.
