Before ordering a globe

Match the code, base and voltage to the lamp list for your exact fixture model. If you only know the head, open its fixture link to check the model and specifications.

How to read tungsten and PAR lamp codes

A three-letter ANSI lamp code identifies a particular lamp. For a 1,000 W, 120 V PAR64, the code tells you which beam you’re ordering. FFN is very narrow spot, FFP is narrow spot, FFR is medium flood and FFS is wide flood.

Two lamps can fit the same head and give different colour temperatures. In a Lowel DP Light, EHC and EHD are both 500 W at 120 V. Lowel rates EHC at 3,200 K and EHD at 3,000 K.

Some globes carry a number instead. For the Six-Light Overhead Cluster (Coop), search code:1000 to find the globe marked “1000”. Search 1000 W to see every lamp with that wattage.
