Solid State Lighting
Energy Efficiency through LED Technology
Performance Standards
Performance standards for SSL lamps were finalized in 2008. It is recommended that any SSL product used should meet these guidelines.

“Specifications for the Chromaticity of Solid State Lighting Products” . “ Quality of Color”
    Chromaticity: ANSI C78.377-2008

“Electrical and Photometric Measurements of Solid-State Lighting Products”
    Luminous Flux: IESNA LM-79

“Measuring Lumen Maintenance of LED Light Sources”
    Lumen Maintenance: IESNA LM-80

 
Test results from an array of SSL prodcuts are available through the DOE Commerically Available LED Product Evaluation and Reporting (CALiPER) program.
