An update on smart lighting compliance,
protocol and standards: ensuring legislative
adherence and standardisation
Compliance for Lighting Manufacturers

• SMART Lighting
• Security
• Legislative landscape for Lighting Products from Manufacturers
Perspective
• Why Vigilance is important when specifying SMART lighting
products – CE mark does not mean assurity of compliance

• What is the right light?
• What is the right place?
• What is the right time?
What is SMART Lighting
SMART Lighting is putting the
right light in the right place at the right time
Not just about the technology but the
whole process from design to installation
and use
Improving Energy Efficiency
Controlling Glare Efficiently
Increasing Task Efficacy
Improving Light Quality
Using Light to Navigate
Improving Ease of Control
Adapting Light to Needs –
Level and Colour
The most efficient light is one that is turned off when
not needed

Traditional
lighting…
Glass and Gas
Dominated by large
established players
Inefficient, Inflexible
The global lighting industry is going through a period of
disruptive change !
has gone
digital…
LED’s are semiconductor
electronics
Huge variations in quality
New players
resulting in
chaos !
Confusing standards
Changing regulations
Complex supply chain
Lack of trust in data
then
introduce IoT!
Interconnectivity
Security
More Complexity
More confusion

• What happens when we have 25+ Billion IoT
Things?
• Security is essential – hacking will become
more than just theft of data but huge
disruption to everyday life
• What if a hospital’s lighting system could
be disabled?
• What is electrical loads could be shifted
on a large scale resulting in power supply
shut down?
• Common Criteria for Information Technology
Security Evaluation is embodied in an
international standard (ISO/IEC 15408)
• Allows software to be certified as secure
against an international standard
Security

The primary requirement for Compliance to sell lighting
products is CE marking in UK and across Europe
Any product bearing the mark should represent
that the product meets all the appropriate provisions of the
relevant legislation implementing certain European
Directives.
CE Marking allows easy access to the European Market
without adaption or rechecking.
It is not perfect and relies on manufacturers to self-declare

It is the
manufacturer’s
responsibility to carry
out the conformity
assessment, to set up
the technical file, to
issue the EC
declaration of
conformity and to affix
CE marking on a
product.
CIRCLE OF CE COMPLIANCE

All CE marking directives require the manufacturer of the product to create a
technical file which should contain the information required to show that the
product properly complies with the requirements of the directives which apply to it.
As a general guide, the following items should be included:
Description of the apparatus, usually accompanied by block diagram
Wiring and circuit diagrams
General Arrangement drawing
List of standards applied
Records of risk assessments and assessments to standards
Description of control philosophy/logic
Datasheets for critical sub-assemblies
Part list
Copies of any markings and labels
Copy of instructions (user, maintenance, installation)
Test reports
Quality control & commissioning procedures
Declaration of Conformity

• LED Ultra High Definition (UHD) Lighting – put light colours where
needed – improving sparkle and punch of colour (new measure TM-30)
• PoE – Power over Ethernet – combining power and signalling using
existing technologies
• LiFi – Using the LED light source in the luminaire to communicate with
mobile devices – improving location accuracy
• Full Service Offerings – Lighting as a Service (LaaS)
• Google Brillo and Weave
Things to watch our for enabling faster rollout of SMART
