What Is New Directive of New ErP Regulations?
ErP Regulatrions are focused on producing energy-efficient lighting solutions. The new Energy-related Products (ErP) Directive 2009/125/EC replaced the old Energy-using Products Directive (EuP) in 2009. The updated ErP Regulation includes products that indirectly affect energy use, such as insulation materials. Besides, to enhance sustainability, the European Commission has introduced updated regulations:
- EU 2019/2020 – Stricter eco-design standards for lighting products.
- EU 2019/2015 – A new energy labeling system for better consumer transparency.
These new directives aim to reduce energy waste, improve product efficiency, and promote environmentally friendly solutions across industries.
Main Differences Between New and Old Directives
- Added household appliances, furniture and other products with lights in Scope
- The calculation of energy efficiency is changed from EEI to Ponmax, which added the factor of Ra and improves the requirement of energy efficiency
- Added flicker test: SVM, Pst LM
- Added the power consumption requirements of network standby
- Added minimum energy efficiency for separate control gear at full-load
- Switching cycle, starting time and warm-up time test are deleted
- Only 10 pcs of light source and 3 pcs of Separate control gears needed
- 3600h durability test, which 3000 hours lighted on, the test time is reduced, but the requirement of luminous maintenance is improved

Key Aspects of the ErP Regulations Include
Product Scope: The ErP regulations cover a wide range of energy-related products, including household appliances, heating and cooling equipment, lighting products, and more.
Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS): The regulations set minimum energy efficiency standards that products must meet in order to be sold in the EU market. Products failing to meet these standards are restricted from being placed on the market.
Energy Labels: Many products covered by the ErP regulations are required to display energy labels that provide consumers with information about the product’s energy efficiency, helping them make informed purchasing decisions.
Eco-design Requirements: The regulations also include eco-design requirements, which address various aspects of a product’s design that can impact its energy consumption, such as standby power usage and energy-efficient features.
Implementation: The ErP regulations are enforced by national authorities within EU member states. Manufacturers and distributors must ensure their products comply with the applicable regulations before placing them on the market.
Ecodesign Directive: The ErP regulations are closely linked to the Ecodesign Directive (2009/125/EC), which provides the legal framework for establishing ecodesign requirements for energy-related products.
What is the Single Lighting Regulation?
The SLR defines the different light sources and control gears covered under the regulation. Under the new regulation, light sources are classified as anything that emits white light, including LED lamps and LED modules. Luminaires are also identified as containing products for light sources.
What are control gears? They are enhancements that stabilise the current and control the lighting output of a light. They also reduce any lighting flickers and promote stable energy consumption.
What is the Energy Labelling Regulation?
Energy Labels are found on all electrical energy-using products, including televisions, dishwashers, and light sources. Their purpose is to communicate energy efficiency, which allows users to save money on their household energy bills and make choices to help reduce CO2 emissions.
The new Energy Label Regulation redefines the labelling requirements for all lighting products, including labels for lighting packaging and any website or sales literature.
When will the New ErP Regulation be Implemented?

FAQ
ERP Regulation LED strips are designed following the European Union’s Energy-related Products (ErP) regulations. These strips are more energy efficient than the standard LED strip lights. Moreover these ERP compliant are also more expensive than standard ones.
ERP Regulation is an energy efficiency standard for lights. It doesn’t decide whether an LED strip is dimmable or not. If the ERP Regulation LED Strip is designed for dimming and is connected to a compatible dimmable power supply or controller, you can surely dim it.
In commercial and industrial applications lights are turned on for long hours, sometimes all day long. So using ERP Regulation LED Strip in this case plays a crucial role in minimizing power consumption as they are highly energy efficient. moreover, these strips also save you electricity bills.
Yes, you can replace existing LED strips with new ErP-compliant ones. However, make sure the new LED strip is compatible with the existing driver and doesn’t cause voltage drop issues.
First of all, you have to understand the below concepts:
1. Non-directional mains light source (NDLS, MLS)
2. Non-directional non-mains light source (NDLS, NMLS)
3. Directional mains light source (DLS, MLS)
4. Directional non-mains light source (DLS, NMLS)
To make it simple, MLS means directly goes for 230V electricity, and NMLS needs a transformer to transform to 230V.
(DLS) means a light source having at least 80 % of total luminous flux within a solid angle of π sr(corresponding to a cone with an angle of 120%); otherwise, it’s NDLS.
So, how can we define the DC voltage led strip correct efficiency class level?
No doubt this is NMLS, cos it needs a transformer.
And it’s NDLS because the total luminous flux within a solid angle of π cannot reach 80% luminous flux.
Now you can see it’s NDLS and NMLS, and it’s in the 2nd line. Factor Ftm shall be 0.926.
E.g., if your light output luminous flux is 100lm/W, you need to put an additional coefficient that’s 0.926, 100*0.926=92.6lm/w.
