hour aging period according to ANSI Standard C78.5. The lamp efficacy
shall be the average of the lesser of the lumens per watt measured in
the base up an/or other specified positions. Use wattages place on
packaging to select proper specification efficacy in this table, not
measured wattage. Labeled wattages are for reference only.
\2\ Efficacies are based on measured values for lumens and wattages from
pertinent test data. Wattages and lumens placed on packages may not be
used in calculation and are not governed by this specification. For
multi-level or dimmable systems, measurements shall be at the highest
setting. Acceptable measurement error is 3%.
