3. 线性LED灯 (以前不受管制)

这些新产品必须符合 2012 年《能源节约法》中对受管制产品的要求，包括注册、标签和最低能源性能标准。

对于冰箱，该变更自2024年1月1日起生效，但对于2024年1月1日之前进口或制造的冰箱，允许到2024年12月31日的过渡期。 对于LED灯和PAC空调，该要求从2024年4月1日起适用，但到2025年3月31日为止有一个过渡期，以消化2024年4月1日之前进口或制造的现有库存。

The Singapore Minister for Sustainability and the Environment has approved the following amendments to energy conservation laws:

• Order No. S 710/2023 amending the Energy Conservation (Prescribed Regulated Goods) Order No. S 747/2017
• Regulation No. S 711/2023 amending the Energy Conservation (Regulated Goods and Registered Suppliers) Regulation No. S/ 748/2017

The changes essentially add new requirements for portable air conditioners (PAC), certain LED lamps, and revise requirements relating to televisions and refrigerators.

Amendment Order No. S 710/2023 extends the scope of regulated products to include the following products from 1 April 2024:

1. Any single‑phase portable unitary single duct air‑conditioner with cooling capacity of 12 kW or lower (Portable Air-Conditioners (PAC).
2. LFL lamps (linear, double‑capped fluorescent lamp without integrated ballast) with a diameter of 16 mm (this currently is 26mm)
3. Linear LED lamps (not previously regulated)

These new products must comply with the requirements under the Energy Conservation Act, 2012 for regulated products including registration, labelling and minimum energy performance standards.

The specific energy efficiency requirements for new covered products including the new energy labels for lamps and PAC air conditioners are set out in the Amendment Regulation No. S 711/2023. This defines the applicable test standards to be used for PAC air conditioners as ISO 18326 (2018) and for Linear LED lamps as IEC 62612 (2013) or IEC 62612 (2018).

From 1 April 2024, the passive standby mode for televisions with a resolution less than 33,177,600 pixels must be ≤ 0.50 Watts.

Also, testing standards for certain lamps, refrigerators and televisions must also be updated to newer revised versions of the standards.

Finally, Order No. S 710/2023 also amends the definition of the adjusted volume of refrigerators. It reduces the adjusted volume correction factor for the chill compartment from 1.13 to 1.07, and for the cellar compartment from 0.75 to 0.71 for covered refrigerators.  It requires the compartment/section type must be defined in accordance with Section 5.1 of Standard IEC 62552‐3:2015 (rather than Section 3.3 of the Standard ISO15502:2005). This change is effective from 1 January 2024; however, a transitional period of 31 December 2024 is allowed for refrigerators imported or manufactured before 1 January 2024.

For LED lamps and PAC air conditioners, the requirements apply from 1 April 2024, however there is a transitional period until 31 March 2025 to clear existing stock imported or manufactured before 1 April 2024.
