Its abbreviation is F. All lights are indicated by abbreviations on nautical charts.Flashing light is a light with a short light interval anda long dark interval. Its abbreviations is FI, but in nautical charts the abbreviations of the corresponding rhythms

an interrupted light.abbreviation is Oc/Occ.lights are flashing or occulting lights in which the light-intervals are exhibited in groups that are repeated at regular intervals, for example F (3) or Oc (2).Isophase light has a light interval and a dark interval of equal durations. Its abbreviation is ISO.lights are mostly of white (W), red (R), blue
(BVBu) and green (Gt) colour. In case a light changes its colour it is called alternating.Alternating light (Al) is a light that shows different colours alternately, for example ALWGR (Alternating light White/ Green/ Red).Morse Code light is a light in which appearances of light of two clearly different durations are grouped to represent a character or characters in the Morse Code.applications of the types of light are determined by the fact whether a light is conspicuous or not.most conspicuous light by far is the Flashing light. Therefore it is always used to indicate danger.least conspicuous light is the Fixed light Therefore it should merely be used to illuminate an object or an area.are exhibited from different conspicuous structures, such as towers, poles, posts, buoys, beacons, staffs, masts and lighthouses.2.
