- (2) For general service incandescent lamps, use § 429.66(a);
- (3) For compact fluorescent lamps, use § 429.35(a);
- (4) For integrated LED lamps, use § 429.56(a);
- (5) For other incandescent lamps, use § 429.66(a);
- (6) For other fluorescent lamps, use § 429.35(a); and
- (7) For OLED lamps and non-integrated LED lamps, use § 429.56(a).
(b) Certification reports.
- (1) The requirements of § 429.12 are applicable to general service lamps;
- (2) Values reported in certification reports are represented values;
- (3) For general service incandescent lamps, use § 429.66(b);
- (4) For compact fluorescent lamps, use § 429.35(b);
- (5) For integrated LED lamps, use § 429.56(b); and
