This recommended practice covers the general requirements and test procedures recommended for use with white incandescent integrally lighted instruments. Its use should provide uniformity of illumination from instrument to instrument and legibility under daylight operation. An appendix is provided to familiarize the designer with some of the techniques used to obtain uniformity of color and illumination in various types of instruments.

This document is intended to cover the design of plastic lighted panels, mounting plates, and their installation.

This document defines the method for voltage identification by use of color coded insulators at the base of the lamp. Table 1 shows lamp part numbers and corresponding insulator colors. Insulator colors are to be easily distinguishable as red, yellow, and green. Tables 2 and 3 show complete descriptions of the lamps involved for the T1-3/4 and T1 lamps respectively. New lamp part numbers may be added by a revision process as required.
