This SAE standard provides test procedures, performance requirements, design guidelines and installation guidelines for front fog lamps.
Rationale
Content
Revised Figure 2 - Photometric requirements for harmonized front fog lamp luminous intensity (cd) to correct errors and harmonize with current ECE R19 requirements.
  1. 1
    Revised left side of drawn Line 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 in the figure to end at correct angular value. Current lines extend to the left beyond specified angular extent of each line.
  2. 2
    Reordered footnotes to list in a more logical order.
  3. 3
    Separated current footnote #3 into footnote #4 for Line 6 and #5 for Line 7 to help with clarity.
  4. 4
    Corrected footnote #4 that line 6 is a maximum and minimum measured line.
  5. 5
    Corrected footnote #5 to state Line 7 is required to be less than 50% of Line 6 maximum. Current footnote incorrectly states Line 7 is required to be less than 50% of Line 6 minimum.
  6. 6
    Revised drawn Line 6 and 7 along with modifying the text box pointing to each to indicate there is an asymmetric option to reduce the inboard angular extent if the lamps are a pair of lamps with an asymmetric beam pattern. This harmonizes with the current ECE R19.
  7. 7
    Added footnote #7 allowing inboard angular relief for lines 6 and 7 consistent with figure modification above.
