 Flood Lighting
A floodlight is a luminarie which concentrates the light in a
solid angle determined by an optical system (mirrors or
lenses), in order to achieve a high luminous intensity.
Lamps suitable for floodlights range from pressed glass
lamps and halogen lamps and even high pressure mercury
lamps, metal halide lamps and low pressure and high
pressure sodium lamps. They all have different voltages
and each provides a kind and special type of light, colour
effects and efficiency.

 Installed load efficacy ratio

EEE F427 Electric Power Utilization and Illumination

How is the lighting performance assessed
from Installed load efficacy ratio (ILER)?
ILER ratios of 0.75 or more may be considered to be satisfactory
to good.
Existing installations with ratios of 0.51 0.74 certainly merit
investigation to see if improvements are possible.
Of course there can be good reasons for low ratio, such as having
to use lower efficacy lamps or less efficient luminaries in order to
achieve the required lighting result but it is essential to check
whether there is scope for a more efficient alternative.
Existing installations with an ILER of 0.5 or less certainly justify
close inspection to identify options for converting the installation
to use more efficient lighting equipment.

 Room Index

Room Index is defined as follows:

Where L = length of interior; W = width of interior;

Hm = the mounting height, which is the height of the
lighting fittings above the horizontal working plane.
