1 FUS（Follow- Up Service）Procedure 中对灯管的描述：
The lamp designations may vary between the report description and the label.
This is because there is no industry-wide method on how to describe the lamps. Most UL reports will include a label drawing in the pool of illustrations for ease of comparison with production units. The UL designation of the lamp follows as close as possible NEMA lamp naming conventions, which the lamp manufacturer may or may not use. A lamp designation may be included in the UL report, but for marketing reasons, not included on the product label - this should be considered acceptable.
The lamp type refers to the type of lamp used with the ballast, not the circuit type.
在报告描述中灯管的名称可能会与标签上的有所不同。

这是因为行业范围内尚无对灯管的规范化描述。

大多数的UL报告会在插图中提供产品的简易图，以方便与实物进行比对。

尽管灯管的生产商并非绝对遵循国际电器制造业协会NEMA对灯管命名的约定，UL仍尽可能地采用NEMA的命名。

UL报告中可能会有灯管的名称，但因销售原因，产品标签上中可能不会有灯管的名称，这应被视为是允许的。

灯管型号是指与镇流器配用的灯管，而非指电路类型。

2 UL 935 有关灯管的描述
45.4 Lamps 灯管
45.4.1 A ballast shall be marked for the intended lamp or lamps in order to
a) Maintain normal operation of the ballast including normal temperature and operating components at their
rated voltage (see 45.4.2); and
b) Restrict use of unintended lamps that would result in exposed live parts when lamps are being replaced (see
45.4.3 to 45.4.5).
45.4.1 为了（1）维持镇流器在正常温度和工作组件在额定电压下的正常工作（见45.4.2）；以及（2）避免更换灯管时使带电零件裸露（见45.4.3至45.4.5），镇流器应标注出所适用的灯管。

45.4.2 A ballast intended for use with
a) Bi-pin lamps, such as preheat, instant- or rapid-start, shall be marked with the individual lamp-wattage.
b) Single-pin, ferrule-contact, or recessed-double-contact lamps shall be marked with the proper lamp
designation- for example, lamp length, diameter, or other acceptable designation
c) Single-pin or ferrule-type lamp, or for use with any lamp of which current is more than 430 milliamperes,
shall be marked with the normal lamp current - per lamp, in the case of a multilamp ballast.
d) An energy-saving version of a standard lamp shall be so identified
45.4.2 镇流器所用灯管有：

45.4.5 参照 45.4.4 (b) 和 (c), 这些信息通常隐含在灯管型号中。

3 荧光灯管的命名
Fluorescent Lamp Identification 形荧光灯管的命名
Fluorescent lamps are identified by a standardized code that reveals valuable information about operating characteristics and physical dimensions.
荧光灯管的命名以其工作特性及物理尺寸有关的量值来编码。

Manufacturers' codes, found on the lamps and in catalogs, may vary slightly from the generic designations. However all major lamp manufacturers base their codes closely on the identification system discussed below.
从灯管制造厂的产品目录中得到的灯管编码可能与通用的命名有些不同。

然而，主要灯管制造厂基于命名规则的灯管编码是很接近的。

The best way to learn lamp identification is through example. Below is a range of fluorescent lamps, one for each popular starting method:
通过实例是学习灯管命名的最好的办法。

Rapid-Start (40 Watts or Less) and Preheat Lamps 快速启动型灯管（40瓦或 40 瓦以下）和预热型灯管Example: F30T12/CW/RS
"F" … fluorescent 荧光灯。

"30" … rated nominal wattage 额定正常功率瓦数。

"T" … indicates shape; this lamp is shaped like a tube 表示灯管的形状，T 表示直管形灯光。

"12" … diameter in eighths of an inch; this lamp is 12/8 (1.5) inches in diameter 灯管直径的
1/8 英寸数，此灯管的直径等于 12/8 即 1.5 英寸。

"CW" … color; this lamp is a cool white lamp 光色，CW 为冷白色灯。

The color temperature of lamps makes them visually "warm," "neutral" or "cool"
light sources.
光远的光色以色温造成的视觉感觉区分为暖色调，中性色和冷色调。

Lamps with a lower color temperature (3500K or less) have a warm or
red-yellow/orangish-white appearance. The light is saturated in red and orange
wavelengths, bringing out warmer object colors such as red and orange more
richly.
灯管的色温在 3500 K 及以下的称暖色调，视觉感觉为红黄/橙白色。

光波
波长靠近深红或橙色。

Lamps with a mid-range color temperature (3500K to 4000K) have a neutral or
white appearance. The light is more balanced in its color wavelengths.
灯管的色温在 3500 至4000 K 的称中性色，光的色波长更平衡。

Lamps with a higher color temperature (4000K or higher) have a cool or
bluish-white appearance. Summer sunlight has a very cool appearance at about
5500K. The light is saturated in green and blue wavelengths, bringing out cooler
object colors such as green and blue more richly.
灯管的色温为 4000 K 或更高的称冷色调，呈兰白色。

夏日的太阳光的色温
约5500 K。

光波波长靠近深绿和蓝光。

"RS" … mode of starting; the lamp is a rapid-start lamp. Preheat lamps do not have "RS" as a
suffix 灯管的启动模式，RS指快速启动灯。

预热灯管不以“RS”做后缀。

Rapid-start lamps are the most popular fluorescent lamp type used in commercial applications such as office buildings.
快速启动灯管是办公建筑等最常用的一种商用荧光灯管型。

Note that some lamps may be designated F40T12/ES, but the lamp draws 34 instead of 40 watts; the "ES," a modifier which stands for "energy-saving," indicates this. ES is a generic designation; actual manufacturer designations may be "SS" for Super Saver, "EW" for Econ-o-Watt, "WM" for Watt-Miser and others.
注意，有些灯管命名为 F40T12/ES，其中的 ES 是 "energy-saving" 的简写，表示属节能型，这是一般的表示方法，也有些制造厂以 "SS" 表示 Super Saver，"EW" 表示 Econ-o-Watt，"WM" 表示 Watt-Miser。

After the mode of starting, another number may be added to indicate color rendering and color temperature if the lamp's color (CW, WW, WWX, etc.) is not indicated. The number will often be three digits, the first indicating color rendering (a "7" standing for "75," for example) and then the next two indicating color temperature (a "41" standing for "4100K," for example).
在启动模式之后，如果不是灯管的光色（CW，WW，WWX 等等），则跟在启动模式之后的是号码表示显色指数和色温。

通常是三个数字，首先是显色指数（例如 7 表示显色指数 75），随后的两位表示色温（例如 41 表示 4100 K）
这类灯管多是 G5 (Min Bipin) 或G13 (Men Bipin) 型管基 Tube Base。

High-Output Rapid-Start Lamps 高输出快速启动型灯管
Example: F48T12/WW/HO
"F" … fluorescent 荧光灯。

"48" … nominal length of the lamp in inches 以英寸表示的正常灯管长度。

"T" … shape; this lamp is shaped like a tube 灯管形状，T 表示直管型灯管。

"12" … diameter in eighths of an inch; this lamp is 12/8 (1.5) inches in diameter 灯管直径的
1/8 英寸数，此灯管的直径等于 12/8 即 1.5 英寸。

"WW" … color; this lamp is a warm white lamp光色，WW 为暖白色灯。

"HO" … high output lamp operating on 800 mA current 工作电流为 800 mA 的高输出灯管
Very High-Output Rapid-Start Lamps 极高输出快速启动型灯管
Example: F72T12/CW/VHO
"F" … fluorescent 荧光灯
"72" … nominal length in inches 以英寸表示的正常灯管长度。

"T" … shape; this lamp is shaped like a tube 灯管形状，T 表示直管型灯管。

1/8 英寸数，此灯管的直径等于 12/8 即 1.5 英寸。

"CW" … color; this lamp is a cool white lamp 光色，CW 为冷白色灯。

"VHO" … very high output lamp operating on 1500mA current; instead of VHO, it may read
"1500" or "Power Groove" (brand names) 工作电流为 1500 mA 的极高输出灯管，可读作
“1500” 或印成 "Power Groove"。

Instant-Start Lamps 瞬时启动
Example: F96T12/WWX
"F" … fluorescent 荧光灯
"96" … nominal length in inches 以英寸表示的正常灯管长度。

"T" …shape; this lamp is shaped like a tube 灯管形状，T 表示直管型灯管。

"12" … diameter in eighths of an inch; this lamp is 12/8 (1.5) inches in diameter 灯管直径的
1/8 英寸数，此灯管的直径等于 12/8 即 1.5 英寸。

"WWX" … color; this lamp is a deluxe warm white lamp光色，WWX 为高暖色灯。

Other Fluorescent Lamps 其它荧光灯
"FC" instead of "F" means the lamp is circular. 环形荧光灯
"FB" or "FU" instead of "F" means the lamp is bent or U-shaped. The suffix "U" can also be used for U-shaped lamps, followed by a "/" and a number that indicates the distance between the lamp's legs in inches. "FT" instead of "F" is used for twin-tube T5 lamps.
FB 或 FU 弓形或 U 形荧光灯。

以 U 为后缀的 U 形荧光灯，在 U 之后加一个“/”和一个表示灯脚脚距的英寸数。

FT 用于双 T5灯。

Compact Fluorescent Lamp Identification 紧凑型荧光灯管的命名
Compact Fluorescent lamps (bulbs) are either pin-based (they plug into a socket) or they are medium screw-based (they screw into the same socket as common incandescent bulbs). The following describes pin-based compact fluorescent bulbs:
紧凑型荧光灯有直插式和螺旋式两种管基。

下面讨论直插式管基的紧凑型荧光灯的命名。

Lamp manufacturers of the National Electrical Manufacturers Association use a generic designation system for compact fluorescent bulbs. This system helps users identify the bulb type and easily cross-reference between manufacturers.
美国机电协会 NEMA 的灯泡制造厂使用一个紧凑型荧光灯的通用命名规则，它帮助大家很容易找出各制造厂型号的对应关系。

The NEMA generic designation system for pin-based compact fluorescent lamps consists of four parts:
CF + Shape + Wattage / Abbreviated Base Designation
•The prefix "CF" is used for all types of compact fluorescent lamps that comply with the American National Standards Institute definition of a self-supporting lamp with a single base.
•The "Shape" designator is chosen from the following:
o T - twin parallel tubes
o Q - four tubes in a quad formation
o TR - triple tube (including three twin tubes in a delta formation or three tubes in an arch) see footnote below
o S - square shaped
o M - a combination of tubes (multiple) not covered by any of the above shape designators •The "Wattage" is the nominal wattage, followed by "W".
FLUORESCENT LAMPS
August, 2006 PHS WJM 11• The "Abbreviated Base Designation" after the "/"separator, is the IEC/ANSI designation which includes
the number of pins, but excludes any keyway information. The base designation, which can be determined from lamp catalogs, is essential to differentiate between lamps of the same wattage, but which have different pin configurations (see base reference below).
• Additional information, such as color, may be added after a further "/"separator.
插入式管基紧凑型荧光灯的 NEMA 通用命名规则包含四个部分：CF + 形状 + 瓦数 / 管基缩略代号。

- 前缀 CF 用作表示带符合 ANSI 单管基紧凑型荧光灯。

- 形状的表示如下：
T – 双平行灯管
Q – 方形四管
TR –三管（包括以三角形排列的三个双管或弓形三管）
S – 正方形
M – 上述不包含的多管
- 瓦数是标称瓦数，后加 W
- 管基缩略代号之前用“/”隔开，由 IEC/ANSI 定义，包括管脚数量，而不包括键槽等信息。

管基的命名可从灯管的产品目录上查到，用以区分相同灯管瓦数，但有不同灯脚形状。

- 可以在一个“/”之后加上表示灯管光色等的附加信息
EXAMPLES
9 watt twin tube with G23 base - CFT9W/G23
26 watt quad tube with 2 pin G24 base - CFQ26W/ G24d
