If no lampholder fails in the complete series of tests specified in 4.3, then lampholders of that type shall be deemed to comply with this standard.
If one lampholder fails in any group in the complete series of tests specified in 4.3, the lampholders of that type shall be deemed to have failed to comply with this standard, unless that lampholder can be shown to be not representative of normal production or design, in which case a further set of lampholders shall be submitted to the test or tests in that group.Generally, it will be necessary to only repeat the test in which failure occurs. However, if the lampholder fails in the test specified in Clauses 14 to 18 inclusive, the tests shall be repeated from the tests of Clause 14 onwards.
An additional type test sample may be submitted, together with the first type test sample, in case one lampholder fails, in which case the additional type test sample shall then be tested and shall only be rejected if a further failure occurs. If there is no failure in this retest, then lampholders of that type shall be deemed to comply with this standard. If the additional type test sample is not submitted at the same time, a failure of one lampholder shall entail a rejection.If more than one specimen fails in the complete series of tests specified in 4.3 then lampholders of that type shall be deemed to have failed to comply with this standard.
NOTE In view of the duration of the test procedure, lampholders differing only in detail and having the same constructional principles and materials may be covered by a single series of type tests, subject to agreement between applicant and test house.
Lampholders with external parts consisting partly of metal and lampholders comprising external parts of insulating material with a conductive outer surface, e.g. a metallized outer shell, are considered as metal lampholders.
This does not apply to threaded entries and external parts, as for example a metal shade ring mounted on to the outside of a lampholder of insulating material, which cannot become live even in the case of an insulation fault.Metal lampholders with insulating coverings are considered as metal lampholders.AS NZS 61184 pdf free download.
