Lights Defined
The following is in context to Energy Use, because it's common for a single word to have multiple meanings you will find additional research links near the bottom of the page.
"For the RECS, all of the light bulbs controlled by one switch were counted as one light. For example, a chandelier with multiple lights controlled by one switch is counted as one light. A floor lamp with two separate globes or bulbs controlled by two separate switches would be counted as two lights. Indoor and outdoor lights were counted if they were under the control of the householder. This would exclude lights in the hallway of multifamily buildings. (See Floodlights, Fluorescent, High-Intensity Discharge, and Incandescent Lamps.)"
