Standard reaffirmed:
FOR SSOE USE ONLY - This document is the property of SSOE, Inc. The technical information herein may be disclosed only to those company employees who
need it in the performance of official duties. Reproduction or disclosure to others is prohibited.
Scope/Purpose:
This standard identifies the design criteria for interior lighting design in factory, office, and support
areas.
Cross Reference: (DS)
1.
DS-16-L003 - Emergency and Exit Lighting Systems
2.
DS-16-L004 - Lighting Fixtures
3.
DS-16-L005 - Lighting Control Equipment
4.
DS-16-P007 - Low Voltage Distribution Systems
Governing Codes and Standards:
1.
NEC - National Electrical Code
2.
IES - Illumination Engineering Society - Lighting Handbook
Special Considerations:
1.
Task lighting requirements should be identified where appropriate.
2.
Permanent fixture use as construction phase lighting should be considered.
3.
Accessibility for maintenance purposes should be a design consideration.
4.
Alternate phase connections of adjacent fixtures to avoid stroboscopic effects.
5.
This standard does not address special lighting requirements such as theatrical/stage lighting,
video conferencing, etc.
6.
Illumination levels outlined below are general guidelines. Always follow the clients standards
where they apply.

4.1.4
Branch circuits for 120 volt incandescent lighting in pipe chases or similar
areas may be fed from a receptacle panelboard within the area.
4.1.5
Architectural lighting such as down lights or other types requiring 120 volts
may be fed from a receptacle panelboard.
277 volt circuits shall be fed via single pole 20 amp circuit breakers. Circuit
loading -4432 VA maximum.
4.2.2
120 volt circuits shall be fed via single pole 20 amp circuit breakers. Circuit
loading -1920 VA maximum.
Wiring System
4.3.1
4.3.2
In office and cafeteria areas the standard wiring method shall be individual
conductors in electrical metal tubing, with junction boxes and flexible conduit
connections to each fixture. Alternates including, flexible manufactured
wiring systems, etc. must be approved by client on a project by project
basis.
Task Lighting
5.1
Task lighting shall be provided in man pit and maintenance pit areas. These fixtures
will only provide general low level illumination.
5.2
Task lighting along assembly lines or at designated production areas will require
higher levels of illumination.
5.3
In general task lighting shall be fluorescent, twin tube, and type T-8, 32 watt lamps
with 4100K color temperature.
5.4
The direction that each of these fixtures shall be aimed will be based upon the
specific task performed.
6.2
6.3
Construction drawings shall clearly delineate the boundaries of the classified areas,
both in plan view and cross section, with the Class, Division, Group and Temperature

DS16L001
An appropriate number of light fixtures for a given area will be designated as night
lights (minimum of 10%). It will be the responsibility of the designer to determine
what is appropriate to provide enough light for walking areas and for watchmen and
security personnel, by consulting with client personnel during the design of lighting
systems.
