CSA C22.2 NO. 250.0:21 is a harmonized standard developed by ANCE, CSA Group, and UL for luminaires. It is the fourth edition of NMXJ-307/1-ANCE, the fifth edition of CSA C22.2 No. 250.0, and the fifth edition of UL 1598.

These include amateur movie lights, aquarium lights, cabinet lights, decorative lighting strings, combination fan/IR lamps used for heating, electric signs, exit signs, junction boxes for swimming pool fixtures, lamp adapters, low-level path marking and lighting systems, low-voltage landscape lighting, low-voltage lighting fixtures for use in recreational vehicles, low-voltage marine lighting, luminaires for hazardous locations, luminaires for recreational vehicles in the United States, marine navigational lights, marine-type fixtures, portable electric displays, portable hand lamps, portable luminaires, portable sun/heat lamps, self-ballasted lamps and lamp adapters, stage and studio luminaires, submersible luminaires, swimming pool luminaires, temporary lighting strings, therapeutic lamps, track lighting systems, under-cabinet lights, and unit equipment for emergency lighting.

The standard also references requirements for light emitting diode (LED) components and subassemblies integral to a luminaire, which are covered by UL 8750 and CSA C22.2 No. 250.13.
