Organic light emitting diode (OLED) light sources for general lighting - Safety – Part 2-1: Particular requirements - Semi-integrated OLED modules
1 Scope
This documents specifies safety requirements for semi-integrated organic light emitting diode modules.
The semi-integrated organic light emitting diode modules operates with an external controlgear connected to the mains voltage, and which, in addition, have a control means inside ("semi-integrated") for operation under constant voltage, constant current or constant power.
This document applies to semi-integrated organic light emitting diode modules operating at a rated voltage up to 120 V ripple free DC or 50 V AC RMS at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

9 Insulation resistance and electric strength after humidity treatment
9.1 General requirements
Insulation resistance and electric strength shall be adequate between live parts of the OLED module and accessible parts of the OLED module.
9.2 Insulation resistance
Insulation shall be adequate between live parts and outer metal parts, including fixing screws and metal foil in contact with outer insulating parts.
The OLED module shall be conditioned for 48 h in a cabinet containing air with a relative
humidity between 91 % and 95 %. The temperature of the air shall be maintained within 1 °C of any convenient value between 20 °C and 30 °C.
Insulation resistance shall be measured in the humidity cabinet with a DC voltage of 100 V, 1 min after application of the voltage.
Compliance:
The insulation resistance shall be not less than 1 MΩ between live parts and the outer metal parts.
9.3 Electric strength
Immediately after the insulation resistance test, the OLED module shall withstand an electric strength test for 1 min applied between the parts as specified in 9.2.
The test voltage of substantially sine-wave form shall have a value of 500 V RMS and frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Initially, not more than half the specified voltage shall be applied, the voltage shall then be raised rapidly to the full value. Measurements shall be carried out in a humidity cabinet.
