“Rotating or stationary flashing lamp means” a special warning lamp emitting light intermittently all around its vertical axis (Category T).
“Directional flashing lamp” means a special warning lamp emitting light intermittently in a limited angular area (Category X).
“Complete bar” means a special warning lamp with two or more optical systems emitting light intermittently all around its vertical axis.
Special warning lamps of different types, mean special warning lamps which differ intrinsically.
The effective intensities of rotating or stationary (category T) lamps shall be determined in the directions within an angle of 360 deg around the reference axis of the special warning lamp:
in a horizontal plane perpendicular to the reference axis and passing through the reference centre of the special warning lamp;
in cones, the generating lines of which produce with the above-mentioned horizontal plane angles, the values of which are indicated in the table in Annex 5 to this Regulation.
The effective intensities of directional flashing lamps (Category X) shall be measured in the directions indicated in paragraph 7.3.1. of Annex 5 to this Regulation.
