The Mexican Secretariat of Economics informed on the new standard NMX-I-J-324-NYCE-ANCE-2022 on self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting services including safety requirements and test methods. This standard determines safety and interchangeability requirements and describes the relevant test methods and conditions showing the capability of LED lamps to meet the listed requirements. The standard applies to household self-ballasted LED lamps or ones with the similar general lighting purposes that have:

rated wattage up to 150 W

‍The National Mexican standard is based on IEC 62560 standard. However, it can’t be treated as a similar one as it has national differences with regard to its structure and procedural matter.

The Mexican new standard NMX-IJ-324-NYCE-ANCE-2022 will enter into force 180 calendar days after publication of this Declaration of Validity in the Official Gazette of the Federation.
