C.1.2.2.2 For Luminous Flux Maintenance Test, as Phase 2 (6000h or more), the acceptance will be
applicable if 90% of the tested units reach the luminous flux maintenance values for each period
presented in the RTQ. This criteria is also valid for the Built-in Control Device Durability Test
(6.10.1.2 item from the RTQ).

C.1.2.2.3 In the tests number 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 6.8, 6.9 e 6.11 from the Table 2, the arithmetic
average of the samples must comply with the established limits set in the RTQ.

C.2 Maintenance Tests

The sample collection should be made in the commerce.

In the case of collection in the commerce, the OCP should locate products with manufacturing date
after the date of concession or the last maintenance test. It should be preferably collect samples of
models within the family, who have not undergone previous collections, until all family models have
been tested.

C.2.1 Description of the Maintenance Tests – Safety

The maintenance tests regarding electrical safety and its periodicity are shown in the Table 4.

C.2.2.1 Samples
For each tested model the number of samples for each test, as well as the sequence of the tests, are
defined in the Table 2. Additional samples could be collected by the OCP.

C.2.2.1.1 The number of different models tested in the family depends on the number of models that
this family has. For families with five (5) models, will be selected and tested one model. For families
with six (6) to ten (10) models, 2 (two) different models are selected and tested, and so on for a
number of models greater than 10 (ten).

C.2.2.2 Acceptance/Rejection
Acceptance and Rejection criteria should consider what is predicted in C.1.2.2.
