Die bekannten so genanten Langfeldleuchten bestehen aus Kunststoffprofilen, welche den Grundkörper der Leuchte bilden. Der Grundkörper wird an den Enden mit Kappen, die gleichzeitig als Halter für die Fassungen der Langfeldleuchtmittel dienen und gleichzeitig die elektrischen Steckverbindungen der Leuchte aufnehmen, verschlossen. Die Leuchtmittel werden aus optischen und sicherheitsrelevanten Gesichtspunkten üblicherweise durch eine lichtdurchlässige Kunststoffabdeckung geschützt. Zur Befestigung der Leuchten an diversen Untergründen beinhaltet die Leuchte Durchbrüche, die auch als Paneelbuchsen bezeichnet werden, und eine zeitsparende Montage ermöglichen. Sowohl die gängigen Stecksysteme für den elektrischen Anschluss der Leuchten als auch die konstruktive Umsetzung der genannten Bauteile sind nicht für eine höhere Schutzart ausgelegt und dürfen somit in einem spritzwassergefährdeten Bereich nicht installiert werden. Die für diesen Installationsbereich geeigneten, am Markt erhältlichen Leuchten unterscheiden sich daher grundsätzlich vom Aufbau und damit vom Erscheinungsbild von den kompakten Langfeldleuchten. Häufig sind diese Leuchten im direkten Sichtbereich angeordnet und unterliegen diesbezüglich höheren Designanforderungen. Die bekannten Leuchten für diesen Anwendungsbereich besitzen ausnahmslos einen größeren Profilquerschnitt.The known so-called linear luminaires consist of plastic profiles, which form the main body of the lamp. The body is closed at the ends with caps, which also serve as a holder for the versions of the field illuminant and at the same time record the electrical connections of the lamp closed. The bulbs are usually made of optical and safety aspects by a translucent Protected plastic cover. To attach the lights to various substrates, the lamp includes openings, which are also referred to as panel sockets, and allow a time-saving installation. Both the standard plug-in systems for the electrical connection of the luminaires and the constructive implementation of the above-mentioned components are not designed for a higher degree of protection and must therefore not be installed in a splash-prone area. The luminaires suitable for this installation area, which are available on the market, therefore differ fundamentally from the structure and thus from the appearance of the compact linear luminaires. These luminaires are often arranged in the direct field of vision and are subject to higher design requirements in this regard. The known luminaires for this application area invariably have a larger profile cross-section.
