Lumen Method
The number
formula:
of
lamps is
given
by
the
where,
N =
number of lamps required.
E =
illuminance level required (lux)
A =
area at working plane height (m2)
F =
average luminous flux from each
lamp (lm)
UF=
utilisation factor, an allowance for the
light distribution of the luminaire
and the room surfaces.
MF=
maintenance factor, an allowance
for reduced light output because of
deterioration and dirt.
Example 1
N
=
( 200 lux x 60m x 24m )
000 lumens x 0.4 x 0.75 )

54 lamps.
Spacing

714 lux
Example 2
3/2 =
Spacing / 4
Spacing
1.5 x 4 = 6 metres
24 / 6 = 4 rows of lamps
Total lamps 54 / 4
= 13.5 goes up to
nearest whole number = 14 lamps in each
row.
60
re-considered.
The spacing previously was 6 m between
rows and 4.28 m between lamps.
Spacing
rows
= 24 / 5
Spacing

60 / 11
between
= 4.8 metres
between
= 5.45 metres
Installed Flux
Example 3
(a)
(b)
What is the installed flux per m 2 of
floor area.
(a)
Installed
flux
lamps/fitting x F
=
(lm) =
N x no.
4 x 25 x 2 x 4400
=
880,000 lumens
(b)
The

50 x 10 = 500 m2.
flux
880,000 / 500

Therefore

Spacing / Hm ratio:
2.33 / 2.75 =

ratio is
0.85 : 1.0
2.14 / 2.75 =
0.778
ratio is
0.78 : 1.0
