DEVELOPMENT OF MALAYSIAN STANDARDS
The Department of Standards Malaysia (DSM) is the national standardisation and
accreditation body.
The main function of the Department is to foster and promote standards,
standardisation and accreditation as a means of advancing the national economy,
promoting industrial efficiency and development, benefiting the health and safety of
the public, protecting the consumers, facilitating domestic and international trade and
furthering international cooperation in relation to standards and standardisation.
Malaysian Standards are developed through consensus by committees which
comprise of balanced representation of producers, users, consumers and others with
relevant interests, as may be appropriate to the subject in hand. To the greatest
extent possible, Malaysian Standards are aligned to or are adoption of international
standards. Approval of a standard as a Malaysian Standard is governed by the
Standards of Malaysia Act 1996 (Act 549). Malaysian Standards are reviewed
periodically. The use of Malaysian Standards is voluntary except in so far as they are
made mandatory by regulatory authorities by means of regulations, local by-laws or
any other similar ways.
The Department of Standards appoints SIRIM Berhad as the agent to develop
Malaysian Standards. The Department also appoints SIRIM Berhad as the agent for
distribution and sale of Malaysian Standards.

ELECTRICAL LIGHTING EQUIPMENT
BALLASTS FOR FLUORESCENT LAMPS
PART 2: ENERGY LABELLING AND MINIMUM
ENERGY PERFORMANCE STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS
1. Scope
This Malaysian Standard specifies the requirements for the classification of ballasts for a
range of fluorescent lamp types (refer to Table 1) according to their Energy Efficiency Index
(EEI) and the form of labelling of the EEI, which is generally shown on the ballast rating plate.
This standard also specifies the minimum energy performance standards (MEPS)
requirements for certain fluorescent lamp ballasts.
The ballasts covered by this standard are the ferromagnetic or electronic type, that are used
with fluorescent lamps with a rated lamp power from 10 W to 70 W, for use on 50 Hz supplies
of 230/240 V or a range which includes one or more of these voltages.
This standard covers ballasts that are supplied as separate components or as part of a
luminaire.
This standard does not cover the following ballast-lamp combinations:
a) primarily for use on d.c. supply or batteries;
b) primarily for the production of light outside the visible spectrum, ie. 400 nm to 800 nm;
c) for exit signs within the scope of MS 983; and
d) hazardous area lighting equipment, within the scope of MS IEC 60079 and IEC 61241
series of standards.
2. Application
This standard provides a classification and energy labelling scheme for ballasts for fluorescent
lamps and in addition defines MEPS requirements. This standard shall be read in conjunction
with MS 1778: Part 1.
3. Normative references
The following normative references are indispensable for the application of this standard. For
dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of
the normative references (including any amendments) applies.
MS 983, Specification for KELUAR signs

5.1 Determination of corrected total input power (P
tot.cor.
)
5.1.1 Number of samples
At least three ballasts shall be tested in accordance with MS 1778: Part 1. At the supplier's
discretion, minimum three may be tested to verify performance and demonstrate increased
confidence of conformance of the product to this standard.
The corrected total input power shall be determined for each ballast as specified in 5.1.2.
5.1.2 Determination of ballast efficiency
Where required, measure the light output and total circuit power with a test ballast and the
reference lamp. Repeat the above measurement with a reference ballast and the same
reference lamp. The ballast lumen factor (BLF) is defined as the ratio of the light output of the
test system (test ballast/ reference lamp combination) to the light output of the reference
system (reference ballast/ reference lamp combination). (Expressed as BLF = 1.00 when they
are equal).

Fluorescent lamp ballasts within the scope of MEPS (refer to 6.4) and those that use the EEI
energy classification and labelling scheme on a voluntary basis shall conform to Clause 5 in
this standard and to the following standards.
a) Ferromagnetic ballasts: IEC 60921.
