     (i) Incorporate most components involved in the vapor-compression cycle and the refrigerated compartment in a single cabinet; and

     (ii) May be configured with either solid or transparent doors as a reach-in cabinet, pass-through cabinet, roll-in cabinet, or roll-through cabinet.

     (b) "Commercial refrigerators and freezers" does not include:

     (i) Products with 85 cubic feet or more of internal volume;

     (ii) Walk-in refrigerators or freezers;

     (iii) Consumer products that are federally regulated pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Sec. 6291 et seq.;

     (5) "Department" means the department of community, trade, and economic development.

     (6) "High-intensity discharge lamp" means a lamp in which light is produced by the passage of an electric current through a vapor or gas, and in which the light-producing arc is stabilized by bulb wall temperature and the arc tube has a bulb wall loading in excess of three watts per square centimeter.

     (7) "Metal halide lamp" means a high-intensity discharge lamp in which the major portion of the light is produced by radiation of metal halides and their products of dissociation, possibly in combination with metallic vapors.

     (8) "Metal halide lamp fixture" means a light fixture designed to be operated with a metal halide lamp and a ballast for a metal halide lamp.

     (9) "Pass-through cabinet" means a commercial refrigerator or freezer with hinged or sliding doors on both the front and rear of the unit.

     (10) "Probe-start metal halide ballast" means a ballast used to operate metal halide lamps which does not contain an igniter and which instead starts lamps by using a third starting electrode "probe" in the arc tube.

     (11) "Reach-in cabinet" means a commercial refrigerator or freezer with hinged or sliding doors or lids, but does not include roll-in or roll-through cabinets or pass-through cabinets.

     (12)(a) "Roll-in cabinet" means a commercial refrigerator or freezer with hinged or sliding doors that allow wheeled racks of product to be rolled into the unit.

     (b) "Roll-through cabinet" means a commercial refrigerator or freezer with hinged or sliding doors on two sides of the cabinet that allow wheeled racks of product to be rolled through the unit.

     (13)(a) "Single-voltage external AC to DC power supply" means a device that:

     (i) Is designed to convert line voltage alternating current input into lower voltage direct current output;

     (ii) Is able to convert to only one DC output voltage at a time;

     (iii) Is sold with, or intended to be used with, a separate end-use product that constitutes the primary power load;

     (iv) Is contained within a separate physical enclosure from the end-use product;

     (v) Is connected to the end-use product via a removable or hard-wired male/female electrical connection, cable, cord, or other wiring; and

     (vi) Has a nameplate output power less than or equal to 250 watts.

     (b) "Single-voltage external AC to DC power supply" does not include:

     (i) Products with batteries or battery packs that physically attach directly to the power supply unit;

     (ii) Products with a battery chemistry or type selector switch and indicator light; or

     (iii) Products with a battery chemistry or type selector switch and a state of charge meter.

     (14) "State-regulated incandescent reflector lamp" means a lamp that is not colored or designed for rough or vibration service applications, that has an inner reflective coating on the outer bulb to direct the light, an E26 medium screw base, and a rated voltage or voltage range that lies at least partially within 115 to 130 volts, and that falls into one of the following categories:

     (a) A bulged reflector or elliptical reflector bulb shape and which has a diameter which equals or exceeds 2.25 inches;

     (b) A reflector, parabolic aluminized reflector, or similar bulb shape and which has a diameter of 2.25 to 2.75 inches.

     (15)(a) "Unit heater" means a self-contained, vented fan-type commercial space heater that uses natural gas or propane, and that is designed to be installed without ducts within a heated space.

     (b) "Unit heater" does not include any products covered by federal standards established pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Sec. 6291 et seq., or any product that is a direct vent, forced flue heater with a sealed combustion burner.
