Introduced: September 1968

Description

F21L covers portable lighting devices and systems designed for mobility or transport applications. This includes hand-held lamps, flashlights, headlamps, vehicle lighting systems, and other illumination equipment where portability or integration with transportation modes is a primary design characteristic. The classification encompasses devices powered by batteries, combustion, or other sources, as well as lighting fixtures structurally integrated into vehicles or transport equipment. Adjacent classes F21S and F21V address stationary lighting devices and general lamp construction respectively.

IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 10 subcodes exist in both systems.

5 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
