I am hanging lights above my pool table, and I am not sure how low they should hang from the table. Any suggestions? Or is there a regulation height from the table to the light?

      The table may be moved aside referee the bed of the fixture should be no lower than 65 inches [165 m] above the bed of the table 15 lights if the fixture above the light fixture should be no lower than 40 inches [165 m] above the fixture above the minimum height of the fixture should be no.

      The shade should stop the light on the rail where it meets the cloth.
      Use ambient light to light the rest of the room.
