IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2013 \u2192 IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

The revised standard is identified by BIS as the Second Revision<\/strong> and is based on IEC 60598-2-5:2015<\/strong>. The BIS March 2026 implementation guideline originally specified 02 August 2026 as the last date of concurrent running. BIS subsequently extended the transition period to 02 February 2027<\/strong> for the affected LED luminaire categories, including Flood Lights.<\/p>\n

As of September 2026, manufacturers should therefore consider both the existing and revised standard requirements and plan the transition to the 2026 edition before the end of the concurrent-running period.<\/p>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
What Is BIS CRS Certification for LED Flood Lights?<\/h1>\n
BIS CRS Certification is a registration-based conformity system for specified electronic and electrical products in India.<\/p>\n
LED Flood Lights are included in the BIS CRS product schedule against IS 10322 (Part 5\/Section 5):2013<\/strong>. BIS’s official CRS standard table currently identifies the product category as LED Flood Lights<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
For CRS-covered products, the manufacturer is required to demonstrate conformity by having the product tested at a laboratory recognized by BIS and subsequently applying for BIS registration through the prescribed CRS process.<\/p>\n
After successful registration, the manufacturer can use the applicable BIS registration marking and registration number in accordance with the CRS marking requirements.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS Standard for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
The relevant standard is:<\/p>\n
IS 10322 (Part 5\/Section 5):2013<\/strong>

Glass or lens<\/li>\n
Mounting provisions<\/li>\n
Mechanical strength<\/li>\n
Cable entry<\/li>\n
Internal wiring<\/li>\n
Protective arrangements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
BIS’s current technical description highlights robust construction and resistance to environmental conditions as key expectations for floodlights.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
5. Creepage Distances and Clearances<\/h1>\n
Adequate creepage and clearance distances are required between relevant conductive and insulating parts.<\/p>\n
The laboratory examines the construction against the applicable electrical insulation distances.<\/p>\n
Incorrect PCB layout, driver placement or internal spacing can result in non-conformity.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
6. Provision for Earthing<\/h1>\n
Where earthing is applicable, the Flood Light must have suitable earthing arrangements.<\/p>\n
The relevant parts of the product, terminals and connections are evaluated for compliance.<\/p>\n
BIS’s technical summary specifically identifies grounding as an important electrical-safety aspect of Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
7. Terminals<\/h1>\n
Terminals and supply connections must comply with the applicable construction and security requirements.<\/p>\n
The test program can examine:<\/p>\n
\n
Terminal construction<\/li>\n
Conductor connection<\/li>\n
Mechanical security<\/li>\n
Accessibility<\/li>\n
Insulation<\/li>\n
Fixing arrangements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
8. External and Internal Wiring<\/h1>\n
Wiring is checked for suitable construction and protection.<\/p>\n
The assessment can include:<\/p>\n
\n
Cable type<\/li>\n
Conductor size<\/li>\n
Insulation<\/li>\n
Cable entry<\/li>\n
Internal routing<\/li>\n
Protection against mechanical damage<\/li>\n
Connection security<\/li>\n
Strain relief<\/li>\n
Separation from hot surfaces<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Manufacturers should make sure the production design matches the configuration submitted for testing.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
9. Protection Against Electric Shock<\/h1>\n
Flood Lights must provide adequate protection against access to hazardous live parts.<\/p>\n
The laboratory evaluates relevant electrical insulation and protective construction to ensure that the product does not create unacceptable electric-shock risks under the applicable test conditions.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
10. Endurance and Thermal Tests<\/h1>\n
Thermal management is particularly important for high-power LED Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
The product is evaluated under applicable operating conditions to determine:<\/p>\n
\n
Temperature rise<\/li>\n
Thermal performance<\/li>\n
Component temperature<\/li>\n
Insulation temperature<\/li>\n
Housing temperature<\/li>\n
Driver\/control gear behaviour<\/li>\n
Performance after endurance conditions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
BIS’s technical material specifically identifies heat dissipation and prevention of overheating as important factors in Flood Light performance.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
11. Resistance to Dust and Moisture<\/h1>\n
Flood Lights are frequently intended for outdoor applications.<\/p>\n
The applicable resistance-to-dust and moisture requirements are therefore important, particularly where an IP rating is declared.<\/p>\n
Testing can assess resistance to:<\/p>\n
\n
Solid objects<\/li>\n
Dust<\/li>\n
Water<\/li>\n
Moisture ingress<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The declared IP rating should correspond to the tested product configuration.<\/p>\n
BIS’s technical description specifically notes IP ratings for waterproofing and dust protection as important requirements for outdoor Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
12. Insulation Resistance and Electric Strength<\/h1>\n
The insulation system is evaluated through appropriate electrical tests.<\/p>\n
These tests are intended to verify that electrical insulation provides the required level of protection under the relevant test conditions.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
13. Resistance to Heat, Fire and Tracking<\/h1>\n
Materials used in the Flood Light must satisfy relevant safety requirements concerning heat, fire and tracking.<\/p>\n
The applicable testing evaluates materials and construction against the standard’s requirements.<\/p>\n
This is especially important for:<\/p>\n
\n
Plastic enclosures<\/li>\n
Insulating parts<\/li>\n
Terminal areas<\/li>\n
Internal components<\/li>\n
Driver housings<\/li>\n
Parts exposed to heat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
14. Photometric Test<\/h1>\n
Photometric performance is an important requirement for LED Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
The 2013 testing structure separately lists a Photometric Test<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
Depending on the laboratory test program and applicable requirements, evaluation can involve the optical output characteristics of the luminaire.<\/p>\n
Manufacturers should ensure that the tested product configuration corresponds to the models, LED modules, optics and driver configuration covered in the application.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Special Importance of Glass and Lens Construction<\/h1>\n
The revised IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2026<\/strong> introduces requirements related to a glass breaking test<\/strong>. BIS’s implementation guideline identifies:<\/p>\n
\n
References to IS 10322 Part 1 updated<\/li>\n
Introduction of requirements for the glass breaking test<\/li>\n
Additional marking requirement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The current BIS LIMS entries for the 2026 Flood Lights standard separately identify requirements covering protection using glass that fractures into small pieces, protection using high-impact-resistant glass and a thermal endurance test for the applicable glass arrangement.<\/p>\n
This makes glass\/lens construction an important issue for manufacturers moving from the 2013 standard to the 2026 revision.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
2013 vs 2026 Standard for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
The transition can be summarized as follows:<\/p>\n
Existing Standard:<\/strong> IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2013
\nRevised Standard:<\/strong> IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2026
\nProduct:<\/strong> LED Flood Lights
\nRevised Edition:<\/strong> Second Revision
\nIEC Reference:<\/strong> IEC 60598-2-5:2015
\nOriginal Concurrent-Running Deadline:<\/strong> 02 August 2026
\nExtended Concurrent-Running Deadline:<\/strong> 02 February 2027<\/p>\n
What Changed in the 2026 Edition?<\/h3>\n
For Flood Lights specifically, BIS identifies:<\/p>\n
1. Updated references to IS 10322 (Part 1):2026<\/strong><\/p>\n
2. Introduction of glass breaking test requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n
3. Additional marking requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n
The revised IS 10322 Part 1 also introduces or modifies broader requirements including IPX9, EMF safety, marking, PELV, touch-current\/touch-voltage provisions, battery\/EDLC-operated luminaires and extended photobiological requirements.<\/p>\n
Manufacturers should therefore review the complete applicable requirements rather than treating the Section 5 revision as only a small documentation change.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Is IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2013 Still Applicable in September 2026?<\/h1>\n
The transition requires careful attention.<\/p>\n
BIS’s March 2026 guideline originally stated that old-standard processing would be allowed up to 02 August 2026 and that existing licensees had to implement the revised standard by that date.<\/p>\n
The concurrent-running period has subsequently been extended to 02 February 2027<\/strong> for the affected LED luminaire standards, including Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
Therefore, manufacturers should not automatically assume that an old 2013 test report is sufficient for every current application. The applicable standard version should be confirmed with the selected recognized laboratory and BIS requirements before testing.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS CRS Certification Process for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
Step 1 \u2013 Product and Standard Identification<\/h2>\n
Review the LED Flood Light’s:<\/p>\n
\n
Product type<\/li>\n
Model numbers<\/li>\n
Brand<\/li>\n
Rating<\/li>\n
Driver<\/li>\n
LED configuration<\/li>\n
IP rating<\/li>\n
Housing<\/li>\n
Glass\/lens<\/li>\n
Manufacturing location<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Then identify the applicable standard version.<\/p>\n
Step 2 \u2013 Technical Review Before Testing<\/h2>\n
Check construction, electrical design, marking, wiring, earthing, insulation and model-family configuration before submitting samples.<\/p>\n
Step 3 \u2013 Select a BIS-Recognized Laboratory<\/h2>\n
BIS requires products to be submitted for testing to a laboratory recognized under CRS for the applicable standard.<\/p>\n
BIS’s current laboratory database shows multiple laboratories with testing scope for IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2013<\/strong>, including laboratories in Delhi\/NCR and other locations.<\/p>\n
Step 4 \u2013 Generate Test Request<\/h2>\n
The applicant generates the appropriate Test Request through the CRS process and coordinates sample submission with the laboratory.<\/p>\n
Step 5 \u2013 Submit Product Samples<\/h2>\n
Samples should be prepared according to the laboratory’s requirements and the applicable model\/series assessment.<\/p>\n
Step 6 \u2013 Laboratory Testing<\/h2>\n
The laboratory performs the applicable technical and safety tests.<\/p>\n
Step 7 \u2013 Test Report<\/h2>\n
After successful testing, the recognized laboratory issues the test report.<\/p>\n
Step 8 \u2013 Submit CRS Application<\/h2>\n
The manufacturer submits the online CRS application with the required documents and test report.<\/p>\n
Step 9 \u2013 Submit Hard Copies<\/h2>\n
BIS requires the hard copy of the application with the original test report and prescribed affidavit-cum-undertaking within 15 days<\/strong> of online submission.<\/p>\n
Step 10 \u2013 BIS Scrutiny<\/h2>\n
BIS examines the application and may raise queries or deficiencies.<\/p>\n
Step 11 \u2013 Query Resolution<\/h2>\n
The applicant must respond to the queries and provide the required corrections\/documents.<\/p>\n
Step 12 \u2013 CRS Registration<\/h2>\n
Once the requirements are satisfactorily completed, BIS grants the CRS Registration.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Test Report Validity for BIS CRS<\/h1>\n
BIS currently states that the test report should be not more than 90 days old at the time of online submission<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
This is important because testing, report issuance and application submission should be properly coordinated.<\/p>\n
A delay after report issue can create a problem if the 90-day validity window is exceeded before online submission.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Sample Requirements for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
There is no single sample quantity that should be assumed for every LED Flood Light application because the required samples can depend on:<\/p>\n
\n
Model family<\/li>\n
Electrical rating<\/li>\n
Construction<\/li>\n
Glass\/lens design<\/li>\n
IP rating<\/li>\n
Driver configuration<\/li>\n
Representative models<\/li>\n
Variants included in the application<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The final quantity and configuration should be confirmed with the selected BIS-recognized laboratory before sample dispatch.<\/p>\n
Manufacturers should provide complete samples with the accessories and components necessary for the applicable testing.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Model and Series Coverage<\/h1>\n
LED Flood Light manufacturers frequently have multiple models with different:<\/p>\n
\n
Wattages<\/li>\n
Housing sizes<\/li>\n
LED counts<\/li>\n
Driver ratings<\/li>\n
Beam angles<\/li>\n
Optics<\/li>\n
Input voltages<\/li>\n
IP ratings<\/li>\n
Glass\/lens arrangements<\/li>\n
Mounting systems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Proper model grouping can reduce unnecessary duplicate testing where the applicable BIS requirements permit representative-model coverage.<\/p>\n
However, grouping should be based on actual technical similarity rather than only on model names.<\/p>\n
A model-family review should be completed before the testing quotation and sample submission are finalized.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Documents Required for BIS CRS Certification<\/h1>\n
Typical documents required may include:<\/p>\n
\n
Manufacturer company documents<\/li>\n
Factory address proof<\/li>\n
Manufacturing licence\/registration documents<\/li>\n
Brand\/trademark documents<\/li>\n
Product technical specifications<\/li>\n
Product photographs<\/li>\n
Model list<\/li>\n
Circuit diagram<\/li>\n
Product label\/marking artwork<\/li>\n
User manual, where applicable<\/li>\n
Component details<\/li>\n
Representative model details<\/li>\n
BIS-recognized laboratory test report<\/li>\n
Authorized signatory documents<\/li>\n
Prescribed affidavit-cum-undertaking<\/li>\n
Authorization documents where applicable<\/li>\n
AIR documents for eligible foreign applicants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
BIS requires Indian applicants to provide the prescribed Format C affidavit-cum-undertaking<\/strong>, while foreign applicants without an eligible Indian liaison\/branch arrangement must comply with the AIR requirements and applicable prescribed formats.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS CRS for Foreign Manufacturers of LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
Foreign manufacturers can apply for BIS CRS Registration for covered LED Flood Lights.<\/p>\n
Where the foreign manufacturer does not have a liaison office or branch office in India, BIS requires appointment of an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR)<\/strong> under the applicable requirements.<\/p>\n
The AIR assists with the Indian regulatory interface and prescribed documentation.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS CRS Marking for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
After registration, the manufacturer must follow the applicable BIS CRS marking and labelling requirements.<\/p>\n
The marking should correspond to the registered product and applicable Indian Standard.<\/p>\n
Before mass production and sales, the manufacturer should verify:<\/p>\n
\n
IS number<\/li>\n
Registration number<\/li>\n
Manufacturer information<\/li>\n
Model\/reference<\/li>\n
Rated parameters<\/li>\n
Required symbols<\/li>\n
Label position<\/li>\n
Packaging information<\/li>\n
User instructions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Care should be taken to ensure that the marking used on production products matches the information approved in the CRS registration.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS Testing Cost for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
Testing charges depend on the laboratory and the exact test scope.<\/p>\n
Current BIS LIMS entries for IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2013<\/strong> show several examples, including:<\/p>\n
\n
\u20b932,500<\/strong> at one listed laboratory<\/li>\n
\u20b940,000<\/strong> at another listed laboratory<\/li>\n
\u20b945,000<\/strong> for an entry covering Flood Lights up to 1000 V<\/li>\n
\u20b955,000<\/strong> at another listed laboratory<\/li>\n
Higher-cost entries are also available depending on facility and scope.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
These figures are laboratory-specific and exclude taxes where stated by BIS LIMS.<\/p>\n
For the revised IS 10322 (Part 5\/Sec 5):2026<\/strong>, current BIS LIMS entries show examples such as:<\/p>\n
\n
\u20b945,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b950,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b955,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b975,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b984,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b985,000<\/strong><\/li>\n
\u20b990,500<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
depending on the laboratory and exclusions.<\/p>\n
Therefore, a current laboratory quotation should be obtained before finalizing the project budget.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS Government Fees for CRS Registration<\/h1>\n
The published BIS CRS fee structure lists:<\/p>\n
Application Fee:<\/strong> \u20b91,000<\/p>\n
Application Processing Fee:<\/strong> \u20b950,000, inclusive of one test report<\/p>\n
Annual Registration Fee:<\/strong> \u20b91,000<\/p>\n
Additional Test Report Fee:<\/strong> \u20b920,000 per additional report<\/p>\n
The same published fee structure also provides an MSME concession on the processing fee, subject to the applicable eligibility and requirements.<\/p>\n
Government fees are separate from laboratory testing and consultancy charges.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Total Cost of BIS CRS Certification for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
The overall project cost can include:<\/p>\n
Laboratory Testing + BIS Government Fees + Additional Test Reports, if applicable + Consultancy Charges + Applicable Taxes<\/strong><\/p>\n
The exact amount depends on the number of models, test scope, standard version, laboratory selected and any additional testing or documentation requirements.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
BIS CRS Certification Timeline for LED Flood Lights<\/h1>\n
BIS states that the normal time for grant of registration is 20 working days<\/strong>, subject to receipt of the hard copy and satisfactory completion of scrutiny.<\/p>\n
The complete project also includes laboratory testing time.<\/p>\n
A typical process is:<\/p>\n
Product Review \u2192 Sample Preparation \u2192 Laboratory Testing \u2192 Test Report \u2192 CRS Application \u2192 Hard Copy Submission \u2192 BIS Scrutiny \u2192 Query Resolution \u2192 Registration<\/strong><\/p>\n
Actual total time can vary depending on the laboratory’s workload, testing duration, technical issues and BIS queries.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Common Reasons for LED Flood Light CRS Delays<\/h1>\n
Manufacturers can face delays due to:<\/p>\n
\n
Incorrect standard selection<\/li>\n
Wrong standard version during the 2013\/2026 transition<\/li>\n
Model mismatch<\/li>\n
Incorrect manufacturer address<\/li>\n
Brand name mismatch<\/li>\n

Electric-strength failure<\/li>\n
Fire\/heat\/tracking failure<\/li>\n
Photometric test issues<\/li>\n
Glass\/lens construction problems<\/li>\n
Incomplete affidavit or undertaking<\/li>\n
Delayed hard-copy submission<\/li>\n
Delayed response to BIS queries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
BIS specifically notes that incomplete applications and delayed responses to queries can contribute to delays in grant of Registration.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Important Technical Checks Before Sending Samples<\/h1>\n
Before laboratory submission, manufacturers should review:<\/p>\n
Electrical Design<\/h3>\n
Check voltage, current, frequency, driver arrangement and electrical protection.<\/p>\n
PCB and Driver<\/h3>\n
Review component spacing, insulation, creepage\/clearance and temperature performance.<\/p>\n
Housing<\/h3>\n
Confirm suitable mechanical construction and material characteristics.<\/p>\n
Wiring<\/h3>\n
Verify cable selection, routing and protection.<\/p>\n
Earthing<\/h3>\n
Check earth continuity and connection arrangement where applicable.<\/p>\n
IP Rating<\/h3>\n
Ensure the declared IP rating corresponds to the actual product construction.<\/p>\n
Glass\/Lens<\/h3>\n
For products using glass, review the requirements introduced through the 2026 revision.<\/p>\n
Marking<\/h3>\n
Ensure product labels contain correct ratings and required information.<\/p>\n
Model List<\/h3>\n
Finalize model numbers before the test report is generated.<\/p>\n
These checks can help reduce avoidable technical discrepancies during testing.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
2026 Standard Transition: Action for Existing CRS Holders<\/h1>\n
Existing manufacturers holding registration under the older standard need to pay particular attention to the revised requirements.<\/p>\n
BIS’s implementation guideline states that existing licensees were required to implement the applicable revised standard through complete test report(s) for lead models and an undertaking covering other existing series models.<\/p>\n
Because the concurrent-running period has been extended to 02 February 2027<\/strong>, manufacturers should use the available transition period to:<\/p>\n
\n
Review existing models<\/li>\n
Check the revised standard<\/li>\n
Review marking<\/li>\n
Review glass\/lens construction<\/li>\n
Evaluate additional testing<\/li>\n
Coordinate with a recognized laboratory<\/li>\n
Complete the revised-standard implementation before the applicable deadline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Can Existing 2013 Test Reports Be Used?<\/h1>\n
The answer depends on the application stage, transition requirements and the precise test report.<\/p>\n
BIS’s March 2026 guideline provided transitional provisions for existing applications and new applications, while the later extension changed the concurrent-running period. Therefore, manufacturers should not assume that every old report automatically remains acceptable for a new application.<\/p>\n
The laboratory and BIS requirements applicable at the time of submission should be checked before relying on an older test report.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
Difference Between BIS CRS and BIS ISI Certification<\/h1>\n
LED Flood Lights under the MeitY compulsory registration framework are handled through BIS Scheme-II \/ CRS<\/strong>, rather than the conventional BIS Scheme-I product licensing route.<\/p>\n
Under CRS:<\/p>\n
\n
Product testing is conducted at a BIS-recognized laboratory.<\/li>\n
