Technical section
 
Electrical class
The electrical class indicates what kind of safety precautions have to 
be taken to prevent electrical shocks.
E
A class I luminaire requires earthing. Coming into 
contact with an unprotected part of the wiring will cause 
the current to evacuate into the earthing, which will 
automatically cut off  the power supply.
F
A class II or double-insulated luminaire does not require 
earthing. The wires are protected with a double layer of in-
sulating material, so it is impossible to get an electric shock 
from touching any part of the luminaire. 
G
A class III luminaire is always a SELV luminaire, meaning 
the current is not strong enough to cause electrical shock. 
Therefore it needs no extra safety features.
F-symbol
The technical information always shows an F symbol. This represents 
on what kind of material it is safe to install the luminaire.
Suitable for direct mounting on fl ammable surfaces. The 
article cannot be covered with insulating material or other 
similar materials.
F
Not suitable for direct mounting on fl ammable surfaces, 
only on non-fl ammable surfaces.
F
Suitable for direct mounting in/on fl ammable surfaces. The 
article can be covered with insulating material.
  
IP values
IP stands for ‘Ingress Protection’ and is always followed by 2 digits. 
The fi rst digit specifi es the degree of protection against dust or solid 
objects. The second digit indicates the luminaire’s resistance to water. 
The higher the rating, the higher the level of protection is. 
The table below shows the IP ratings occurring in Massive articles and 
explains the meaning behind both digits. 
Silver label
The silver label is a label that is present on every luminaire. Usually it 
is placed as close to the light source as possible. However, when this 
interferes with the look of the article, it is placed on the bottom or 
back.
On the silver label you can fi nd the following information:
• brand and article number
• Voltage, frequency and maximum wattage
• Fitting
• F symbol
• Marks (country-specifi c and general)
• Country of origin
Voltage, frequency and wattage
The voltage and wattage of your luminaire are indicated with the 
technical information about your luminaire. This can be found on the 
packaging and on the silver label. 
• Voltage
  The voltage represents the strength of an electric current. The most 
common voltages for household use worldwide are 110 V, 220 V, 
230 V and 240 V.  All Massive articles are suitable for 230 V; most of 
them are also suitable for 220 V-240 V. 
• SELV
  SELV stands for safety extra-low voltage. Luminaires with SELV have 
such a low power output that there is no danger of electrical shock. 
They need to be connected to a transformer before being connected 
to the power supply and are always class III. 
• Frequency
  Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz) and indicates how many times 
per second an alternating current is transmitted from a power plant. 
This is 50 Hz for most of the world, although the Americas usually 
have a frequency of 60 Hz. Most Massive luminaires work on both 
50 Hz and 60 Hz. Check the technical specifi cations to make sure. 
• Wattage
  The maximum wattage of a luminaire is determined by tests 
prescribed by the International Standard for luminaires (IEC60598). 
Respect the maximum wattage to reach the full life expectancy of 
your luminaires and to avoid accidents.
