The specification guide provides detailed illustrations of bulb, filament and base designations, and an easy-to-use nomograph that explains the relationship between voltage, current, candlepower, and service life. It includes illustrative diagrams on operating temperature, colour temperature, inrush current, and dimensions for miniature and sealed beam lamps.
