This Part 2-8 of IEC 60598 specifies requirements for handlamps and similar portable luminaires which are held in the hand, hooked up or resting on a surface for use with electric light sources on supply voltages not exceeding 250 V. It is to be read in conjunction with those sections of Part 1 to which reference is made. Handlamps which can be fixed to a support by means of a wing screw, clip or magnet, and luminaires intended for inspection of the interior of barrels, are within the scope of this section. This consolidated version consists of the second edition (1996), its amendment 1 (2000) and its amendment 2 (2007). Therefore, no need to order amendments in addition to this publication.
