Energy efficiency should not devalue a major public asset

Instead of an evenly lit corridor, this Zebra crossing effect causing discomfort and possibly even confusion in the mind of the travellers, is exactly what could go wrong when a fluorescent fitting is retrofitted with an LED tube. Under the guise of energy efficiency someone had sold the concept of an LED tube. Mounting an LED tube into a fixture designed for fluorescent light created this appalling outcome.

How are emergency light classifications assigned?

Author | Surya Bedi

Australian Standard AS2203.1-2005 requires a minimum light level of 0.2 lux at the floor under emergency lighting conditions. We outline the emergency luminaire testing & classification process, which takes into account maximum spacings between emergency lights for a range of mounting heights.

How can light increase student safety and enhance performance?

Lighting is one of the top consumers of electricity in school halls. Multi-purpose areas with high ceilings require lighting to be dynamic. The Kascade offers well balanced illumination that prevents unwanted contrast or glare, it has a very high colour rendering index of Ra>90 for clear distinction between object colours and offers high impact resistance IK 10.

How LM-79 testing can help assess LED luminaire quality & performance

Author | Surya Bedi

LM 79 is the Illuminating Engineers Society North America (IESNA) approved testing method to generate electrical and photometric measurements of solid state lighting (LED) products. It was first used in the US Energy Star program in 2008 and has since become the international standard method for integrated LED products.

Lighting Controls & Building Code of Australia Compliance
