The scope of Directive 98/11/EC is limited to certain tech- nologies within the category of household lamps. In order to use the label to improve the energy efficiency of other lamp technologies, including in professional lighting, this Regulation should also cover directional lamps, extra low voltage lamps, light-emitting diodes, and lamps used predominantly in professional lighting, such as high-intensity discharge lamps. products ('), and in particular Article 10 thereof, (5)  Luminaires are often sold with incorporated or accom- panying lamps. This Regulation should ensure that consumers are informed about the compatibility of the Whereas: luminaire with energy-saving lamps and about the energy efficiency of the lamps included with the luminaire.
