Current through May 31, 2024
Section 27.1395 - Maximum intensities in overlapping beams of forward and rear position lights

No position light intensity may exceed the applicable values in the following table, except as provided in § 27.1389(b)(3) .

OverlapsMaximum Intensity
Area A (candles) Area B (candles)
Green in dihedral angle L101
Red in dihedral angle R101
Green in dihedral angle A51
Red in dihedral angle A51
Rear white in dihedral angle L51
Rear white in dihedral angle R51

Where-

(a) Area A includes all directions in the adjacent dihedral angle that pass through the light source and intersect the common boundary plane at more than 10 degrees but less than 20 degrees, and
(b) Area B includes all directions in the adjacent dihedral angle that pass through the light source and intersect the common boundary plane at more than 20 degrees.
