The new Zhaga-D4i certification is available for LED luminaires that have a powered Zhaga Book 18 receptacle and use LED control gears meeting the D4i requirements. Luminaires can now be certified by Dekra and Intertek, as the Zhaga accredited test centres. Luminaire OEMs intending to develop products for Zhaga-D4i certification benefit from the availability of Zhaga-certified receptacles and D4i-certified LED control gears from a number of vendors.
The certification of Zhaga-D4i modules, i.e. sensors and/or communication devices with a Zhaga Book 18 plug and D4i compatibility, is expected to open in Q1 2020.
More information on the Zhaga-D4i certification program is available in an article in the May/June issue of LED Professional Review (see the article). Zhaga Book 18 Ed. 2.0 is available to Zhaga’s Regular and Associate members.
