New Standards for LED IS 10322 (Part 5/Section 5) : 2013

The governing standard for this category is IS 10322 (Part 5/Section 5) : 2013, titled "Safety of fixed general purpose luminaires." It operates under the aegis of the BIS Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS). This standard specifically addresses the unique safety requirements for floodlighting, ensuring they meet rigorous Indian benchmarks for electrical and mechanical reliability.

This certification is explicitly designed for LED Flood Lights. These are high-intensity, broad-beamed artificial lights often used to illuminate outdoor playing fields, architectural facades, and secured compounds. Any fixed general-purpose luminaire marketed as a "Flood Light" falls squarely under this mandate and cannot be sold without a valid BIS registration number.

To achieve compliance, the product undergoes a comprehensive suite of tests to ensure robust performance. The scope includes:

• Ingress Protection (IP) Testing: Verifying resistance to dust and moisture (essential for outdoor use).
• Thermal Endurance: Assessing heat dissipation to prevent overheating.
• Electrical Safety: Testing insulation resistance, leakage current, and earthing provisions.
• Mechanical Strength: Evaluating the durability of the housing and glass cover against impact.

Testing must be conducted exclusively at a BIS-recognized and NABL-accredited laboratory. Reports generated by non-accredited or internal manufacturer labs are not accepted for BIS registration. We partner only with top-tier labs to ensure your test reports are accurate, recognized, and processed without administrative delays.

For a standard application, the entire process—from sample submission to the grant of the registration number—typically takes 20 to 30 working days. This timeline assumes all technical documents are in order and the product passes testing on the first attempt.

Generally, one (1) complete unit of the LED Flood Light is required for testing purposes. However, it is advisable to keep a backup sample ready. The sample must be the exact production model intended for the market, complete with all drivers and accessories.

The cost structure is variable, depending heavily on the specific model's technical specifications and the selected laboratory's fees. It generally includes:

• Laboratory Testing Fees
• BIS Government Application Fee
• Professional Service & Handling Charges

To initiate the process, the following documents are mandatory:

• Construction Data Form (CDF): Detailing critical components (PCB, drivers, enclosure).
• Circuit Diagram & PCB Layout: Schematics of the internal electronics.
• Business License: Valid manufacturing license or ISO certificate.
• Trademark Certificate: Proof of brand ownership or authorization letter.
• User Manual: Technical specifications and usage instructions.
