3. Lamp Designations
Lamp dimensions are specified in Figure 1 . Only those dimensions essential to interchangeability are given. The drawn shape of the reflector and neck area are not intended to specify or restrict the outer surface of the lamp beyond the restrictions imposed by the standard for the base, ANSI C81 .61 . Dimensions of the subject lamps with front covers differ from those similar lamps without front covers that are specified in ANSI C78.1413.
For the intended application of the subject lamps, there is no need for a highly precise rim. Lamps of the subject type shall employ standardized bases GU5.3 or GX5.3. For details see ANSI C81 .61. Compliance shall be checked by the relevant gauges of ANSI C81 .63.
