: Para España, y DRAE en mano, me parece que "faro" no funciona, hablando de una plancha. ¿Tal vez en otros países?

luz de planchado
Aunque puse coincidencias con las otras dos propuestas, tras enterarme que se trata de una plancha no usaría ninguno de los dos. En este caso, asumiendo que es una luz para iluminar lo que se está planchando, y que se trata de la descripción de las partes de la plancha (que es lo que parece ser), propondría "luz de planchado", privilegiando la función sobre la ubicación de la luz. Creo que frontal o delantera aquí es redundante. El inglés técnico es muy redundante en ese sentido y traducir todo de manera demasiado literal confunde, más que aclara. En especial si hay un dibujo o esquema que muestra de qué se trata la pieza.
