(Ⅰ) LAMPS AND LIGHTING FITTINGS, NOT ELSEWHERE SPECIFIED OR INCLUDED
Lamps and lighting fittings of this group can be constituted of any material (excluding those materials described in Note 1 to Chapter 71) and use any source of light (candles, oil, petrol, paraffin (or kerosene), gas, acetylene, electricity, etc.). Electrical lamps and lighting fittings of this heading may be equipped with lamp-holders, switches, flex and plugs, transformers, etc., or, as in the case of fluorescent strip fixtures, a starter or a ballast.
This heading covers in particular :(1) Lamps and lighting fittings normally used for the illumination of rooms, e.g. : hanging lamps; bowl lamps; ceiling lamps; chandeliers; wall lamps; standard lamps; table lamps; bedside lamps; desk lamps; night lamps; water-tight lamps. (2) Lamps for exterior lighting, e.g. : street lamps; porch and gate lamps; special illumination lamps for public buildings, monuments, parks. (3) Specialised lamps, e.g. : darkroom lamps; machine lamps (presented separately); photographic studio lamps; inspection lamps (other than those of heading 85.12); non-flashing beacons for aerodromes; shop window lamps; electric garlands (including those fitted with fancy lamps for carnival or entertainment purposes or for decorating Christmas trees). (4) Lamps and lighting fittings for the vehicles of Chapter 86, for aircraft or for ships or boats, e.g. : headlamps for trains; locomotive and railway rolling stock lanterns; headlamps for aircraft; ships' or boats' lanterns.

(6) Candelabra, candlesticks, candle brackets, e.g., for pianos.
This group also includes searchlights and spotlights. These throw a concentrated beam of light (which can usually be regulated) over a distance onto a given point or surface, by means of a reflector and lenses, or with a reflector only. The reflectors are usually of silvered glass, or of polished, silvered or chromium-plated metal. The lenses are usually plano-convex or stepped (Fresnel lenses).
Searchlights are used, e.g., for anti-aircraft operations, and spotlights, e.g., for stage sets and in photographic or film studios. (Ⅱ) ILLUMINATED SIGNS, ILLUMINATED NAME-PLATES AND THE LIKE
This group covers advertising lamps, signs, illuminated name-plates (including road signs) and like articles such as advertising plates and address plates, of any material, provided that they have a permanently fixed light source. PARTS

(2) Globe holders. (3) Bases, handles and cases for hand lamps. (4) Burners for lamps; mantle holders. (5) Lantern frames. (6) Reflectors. (7) Lamp glasses or chimneys (bottle-necked, etc.). (8) Small cylinders of thick glass for miner's safety lamps. (9) Diffusers (including alabaster diffusers).

(11) Chandeliertrimmings, such as balls, pear-shaped drops, flower-shaped pieces, pendants, small plates and the like, identifiable by their size or their fixing or fastening devices.
