The AS/NZS 60598.2.2:2016 standard is an adoption of the IEC 60598-2-2 Ed. 3.0 standard from 2011. This standard outlines the specific requirements for recessed luminaires that incorporate electric light sources and can operate at supply voltages of up to 1,000 V.

Recessed luminaires are light fixtures that are designed to be installed into a ceiling or wall cavity, creating a flush or semi-recessed appearance. These luminaires can be found in various settings, such as residential, commercial, or industrial spaces.

The standard aims to ensure the safety and performance of recessed luminaires by establishing requirements related to materials, construction, electrical components, and testing procedures. It covers aspects such as electrical insulation, mechanical strength, protection against electric shock, resistance to environmental conditions, and performance under normal and abnormal operating conditions.
