Luminaires shall not be directly installed on combustible materials; When the high-temperature parts of the lamp surface are close to combustible materials, insulation and heat dissipation measures should be taken.

 

Specific types of lighting fixtures:

 

Metal halide lamp: The installation height should be greater than 5 meters, and the wire should be connected to the lamp, but not close to the surface of the lamp. Lamp tubes must be used in conjunction with triggers and current limiters, and should not be used alone. Reflective lighting fixtures installed on the ground should be protected.
