Can a R30 light bulb be used in place of a PAR30 in an indoor fixture?

Yes, the bulbs are the same diameter as designated by the number 30. It stands for 30/8ths or 3~3/4 inches. There will not be as much light transmitted downward by the R30 as with a PAR30 bulb.The letters in a PAR lamp stand for parabolic aluminized reflector which forces the light forward and out of the bottom of the lamp.Make sure that the wattage of the two lamps are the same. The maximum size wattage for the fixture will be on the fixtures nameplate. For incandescent bulbs do not exceed this wattage rating with a larger wattage bulb as the fixture may not be able to dissipate the heat generated by a larger wattage bulb. The new LED bulbs should not have this problem with heat dissipation.
