Notes:
(a) Design issues are listed for room or space. Refer to specfic task under Reading or Graphic Design and Materials,
for example, for task design issues and illuminance
(b) Low illuminances (less than 30 lux) are given in lux; values greater than 30 lux are given in letter categories.
(1) Consider use of heat lamps to keep foods hot.

(2) Higher levels of surgical task lighting may be required for special procedures
(3) Potential for heat build-up due to high illuminance levels; consider special optics for heat mitigation.
(4) Outdoor pools: 600 lamp lm/m2 (60 lamp lm/ft2); indoor pools: 1000 lamp lm/m2 (100 lamp lm/ft2)
(5) At night the wheelhouse must be kept as dark as possible to permit visibility
of objects on the water, hazards to navigation, and navigational lights.
(6) Potential for degradation with selected materials (plastics or adhesives).
