Starting in 2012, major countries in Europe, the United States, Japan, and China will gradually or completely eliminate incandescent lamps, and the LED lighting market is poised to take off. At the time of the opening of Taipei International Lighting Technology Exhibition (3/13~3/16), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), a product safety testing and certification agency, proposed domestic market layout suggestions to domestic companies, emphasizing the need to develop cutting-edge technologies and returning to consumers. The use of demand, products in addition to safety, energy efficiency, performance standards are subject to compliance, but also must comply with the latest industry standard Zhaga interface in a timely manner, is the key to winning the market and long-term operation.

UL pointed out that Zhaga is currently the most concerned standard for the industry. It is a new generation of LED light engine compatibility (Interchangeability) interface standard, initiated by the Zhaga Alliance, a global lighting company, to promote the global LED lighting system. The standardization of interfaces enables future global manufacturers to develop products with common specifications, eliminating the problem of different connector standards for products designed by different countries and manufacturers. The implementation of the Zhaga standard will inevitably affect the existing product design of the lighting manufacturers, but in the long run, it will contribute to the promotion of the popularization of LED lighting products. The industry should incorporate the Zhaga standard into product development considerations early and adopt the Zhaga specification. Products are bound to enter the market faster and gain consumers' favor.

UL also plays an important role in standard writing, technical decision-making and development of test plans in the Zhaga Alliance. UL is also one of the official designated laboratories that can conduct Zhaga testing services. In addition to harmonizing with the industry, UL sets a unified interface standard. It also requires that the standard must simultaneously consider product safety. The future Zhaga specification will also be incorporated into UL's safety standards to help the industry develop a set of standards that integrate safety and interface requirements.

In addition to Zhaga certification, LED lighting products are energy efficient. UL reminds industry players to keep abreast of the energy efficiency standards of LED lighting products. The EPA's ENERGYSTAR specification, Luminaires V1.1, for lighting products, namely Residential Lighting (RLF) and Solid State Lighting (SSL), will take effect on April 1 this year.

UL emphasizes that if the industry wants to obtain the approval of the "Energy Star" LED lighting product, the product must be tested in an EPA-approved laboratory, and the test results must be submitted by an EPA-approved third-party certification body such as UL to use energy. Star stamp, adding value for product sales. UL Labs can provide Zhaga testing, ENERGY STAR certification, energy efficiency assessment, and integrated services that are based on US, Canadian, and IEC standards.

UL will set up an on-site consultation booth during the 2012 Taiwan International Lighting Technology Exhibition. On March 16th, senior experts from various research institutions will be invited to jointly hold the "LED Lighting Product Trends Briefing Session." The theme will focus on the industry's current and future pulse and international With the latest development of LED lighting safety standards and energy efficiency update information, as well as Zhaga trends that are deeply concerned by the industry, it will bring more positive benefits to Taiwan's LED industry's competitiveness.
