Marginal note:Information on principal display panel

• 426 (1) The principal display panel of the product’s package must display the following information in the following order:

  • (a) the words “Light output” and “Flux lumineux”, followed by the numerical value of the product’s luminous flux and the word “lumens”;

  • (b) the words “Efficacy” and “Efficacité”, followed by the numerical value of the product’s nominal efficacy and the words “lumens/watt”;

  • (c) the words “Power” and “Puissance”, followed by the numerical value of the product’s nominal power consumption and the word “watts”;

  • (d) the words “Life” and “Durée de vie”, followed by the numerical value of the product’s life and the words “hours” and “heures”, respectively; and

  • (e) the words “Light appearance” and “Apparence de la lumière”, followed by the numerical value of the product’s correlated colour temperature and the upper case letter “K” or the word “Kelvin”.

• Marginal note:Font and size

  (2) The words “Light output”, “Flux lumineux”, “Efficacy”, “Efficacité”, “Power”, “Puissance”, “Life”, “Durée de vie”, “Light appearance” and “Apparence de la lumière” must be in the same font and be equal in size.

• Marginal note:Font and size — units

  (3) The words “lumens”, “lumens/watt”, “watts”, “hours”, “heures” and “Kelvin” and the upper case letter “K” must be in the same font and be equal in size, but they must not be more than 50% of the size of the words referred to in subsection (2).

• Marginal note:Font and size — numerical values

  (4) The numerical values indicating the product’s luminous flux, efficacy, nominal power, life and correlated colour temperature must be in the same font and be equal in size.

• Marginal note:Three-way lamps

  (5) If the product is a three-way lamp, the information required by paragraphs (1)(a) to (c) must be displayed for each level of the lamp’s operation.

• Marginal note:Variable correlated colour temperature

  (6) If the product has a variable correlated colour temperature, the information required by paragraph (1)(e) must be displayed for the lamp’s range of operation or for each level of its operation.
