119 STAT. 627
‘‘(46)(A) The term ‘high intensity discharge lamp’ means an electric-discharge lamp in which— ‘‘(i) the light-producing arc is stabilized by bulb wall temperature; and ‘‘(ii) the arc tube has a bulb wall loading in excess 2. of 3 Watts/cm ‘‘(B) The term ‘high intensity discharge lamp’ includes mercury vapor, metal halide, and high-pressure sodium lamps described in subparagraph (A). ‘‘(47)(A) The term ‘mercury vapor lamp’ means a high intensity discharge lamp in which the major portion of the light is produced by radiation from mercury operating at a partial pressure in excess of 100,000 Pa (approximately 1 atm). ‘‘(B) The term ‘mercury vapor lamp’ includes clear, phosphor-coated, and self-ballasted lamps described in subparagraph (A). ‘‘(48) The term ‘mercury vapor lamp ballast’ means a device that is designed and marketed to start and operate mercury vapor lamps by providing the necessary voltage and current. ‘‘(49) The term ‘ceiling fan’ means a nonportable device that is suspended from a ceiling for circulating air via the rotation of fan blades. ‘‘(50) The term ‘ceiling fan light kit’ means equipment designed to provide light from a ceiling fan that can be— ‘‘(A) integral, such that the equipment is attached to the ceiling fan prior to the time of retail sale; or ‘‘(B) attachable, such that at the time of retail sale the equipment is not physically attached to the ceiling fan, but may be included inside the ceiling fan at the time of sale or sold separately for subsequent attachment to the fan. ‘‘(51) The term ‘medium screw base’ means an Edison screw base identified with the prefix E–26 in the ‘American National Standard for Electric Lamp Bases’, ANSI/IEC C81.61–2003, published by the American National Standards Institute.’’. (b) TEST PROCEDURES.—Section 323 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 U.S.C. 6293) is amended— (1) in subsection (b), by adding at the end the following: ‘‘(9) Test procedures for illuminated exit signs shall be based on the test method used under version 2.0 of the Energy Star program of the Environmental Protection Agency for illuminated exit signs. ‘‘(10)(A) Test procedures for distribution transformers and low voltage dry-type distribution transformers shall be based on the ‘Standard Test Method for Measuring the Energy Consumption of Distribution Transformers’ prescribed by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA TP 2–1998). ‘‘(B) The Secretary may review and revise the test procedures established under subparagraph (A). ‘‘(C) For purposes of section 346(a), the test procedures established under subparagraph (A) shall be considered to be the testing requirements prescribed by the Secretary under section 346(a)(1) for distribution transformers for which the Secretary makes a determination that energy conservation standards would— ‘‘(i) be technologically feasible and economically justified; and ‘‘(ii) result in significant energy savings.
