...

(b)In the case of LED light sources of 6.75 V, 13.5 V or 28.0 V; the luminous flux value produced shall be corrected. The correction factor is the ratio between the objective luminous flux and the mean value of the luminous flux found at the voltage applied.

a1c0
10.2. In the case of a system that uses an electronic light source control gear being part of the daytime running lamp[3], all measurements, photometric and colorimetric, shall be made applying at the input terminals of the lamp a voltage of 6.75 V, 13.5 V or 28.0 V respectively. a1c0
[3] For the purpose of this Regulation, "being part of the lamp" means to be physically included in the lamp body or to be external, separated or not, from the lamp body but supplied by the lamp manufacturer as part of the lamp system. a0c0
10.3. In the case of a system that uses an electronic light source control gear not being part of the daytime running lamp the voltage declared by the manufacturer shall be applied to the input terminals of the daytime running lamp. The test laboratory shall require from the manufacturer the light source control gear needed to supply the light source and the applicable functions. a1c0
...

The voltage to be applied to the daytime running lamp shall be noted in the communication form in Annex 1 to this Regulation.

a1c0
10.4.

For any daytime running lamp except those equipped with filament lamps, the luminous intensities, measured after one minute and after 30 minutes of operation, shall comply with the minimum and maximum requirements. The luminous intensity distribution after one minute of operation can be calculated from the luminous intensity distribution after 30 minutes of operation by applying at each test point the ratio of luminous intensities measured at HV after one minute and after 30 minutes of operation.

a1c0
10.5. The limits of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of a light-signalling device shall be determined. a0c0
11. Heat resistance test a0c0
11.1.

The daytime running lamp shall be subjected to a one-hour test of continuous operation following a warm-up period of 20 minutes. The ambient temperature shall be 23 °C + 5°. The light source used shall be a light source of the category specified for the daytime running lamp, and shall be supplied with a current at a voltage such that it gives the specified average power at the corresponding test voltage. However, for daytime running lamps equipped with non-replaceable light sources (filament lamps and other), the test shall be made with the light sources present in the daytime running lamp, in accordance with paragraph 10.2. of this Regulation.

a1c0
11.2.

Where only the maximum power is specified, the test shall be carried out by regulating the voltage to obtain a power equal to 90 per cent of the specified power. The specified average or maximum power referred to above shall in all cases be chosen from the voltage range of 6,12 or 24 V at which it reaches the highest value; for daytime running lamps equipped with non-replaceable light sources (filament lamps and other) the test conditions set in paragraph 10.2. of this Regulation shall be applied.

a1c0
11.3.

After the daytime running lamp has been stabilized at the ambient temperature, no distortion, deformation, cracking or colour modification shall be perceptible. In case of doubt the intensity of light according to paragraph 7. above shall be measured. At that measurement the values shall reach at least 90 per cent of the values obtained before the heat resistance test on the same device.

a1c0
12. Modifications of a type of daytime running lamp and extension of approval a0c0
12.1. Every modification of the type of daytime running lamp shall be notified to the Administrative Departments which approved the type of daytime running lamp. The department may then either: a1c0
12.1.1. Consider that the modifications made are unlikely to have an appreciable adverse effect and that in any case the daytime running lamp still complies with the requirements; or a1c0
12.1.2. Require a further test report from the Technical Service responsible for conducting the tests. a0c0
12.2. Confirmation or refusal of approval, specifying the alterations shall be communicated by the procedure specified in paragraph 5.1.4. above to the Parties to the Agreement applying this Regulation. a0c0
12.3.

The Type Approval Authority issuing the extension of approval shall assign a series number for such an extension and inform thereof the other Parties to the Agreement applying this Regulation by means of a communication form conforming to the model in Annex 1 to this Regulation.

a0c0
13. Conformity of production a0c0
... The conformity of production procedures shall comply with those set out in the Agreement, Appendix 2 (E/ECE/324-E/ECE/TRANS/505/Rev.2), with the following requirements: a0c0
13.1. Daytime running lamps shall be so manufactured as to conform to the type approved under this Regulation.
