2. Lumen method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_method

   In lighting design, the lumen method, (also called zonal cavity method), is a simplified method to calculate the light level in a room. The method is a series of calculations that uses horizontal illuminance criteria to establish a uniform luminaire layout in a space. In its simplest form, the lumen method is merely the total number of lumens ...

3. Lumen maintenance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_maintenance

   Lumen maintenance compares the amount of light produced from a light source or from a luminaire when it is brand new to the amount of light output at a specific time in the future. For instance, if a luminaire produced 1,000 lumens of light when it was brand new and now produces 700 lumens of light after 30,000 hours, then it would have lumen ...

4. Light fixture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_fixture

   A light fixture (US English), light fitting (UK English), or luminaire is an electrical lighting device containing one or more light sources, such as lamps, and all the accessory components required for its operation to provide illumination to the environment. [1] All light fixtures have a fixture body and one or more lamps.

5. Foot-candle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-candle

   The foot-candle is defined as one lumen per square foot. This unit is commonly used in lighting layouts in parts of the world where United States customary units are used, mainly the United States. [1] Nearly all of the world uses the corresponding SI derived unit lux, defined as one lumen per square meter.

6. Daylighting (architecture) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylighting_(architecture)

   Another prescriptive approach is a method that uses two types of side-lighting, and three types of top-lighting to determine if a minimum of 75% daylighting is achieved in the occupied spaces. A third approach uses indoor light measurements showing that between 108 and 5,400 lux have been achieved in the space.

7. Photometry (optics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photometry_(optics)

   A comparison of the watt and the lumen illustrates the distinction between radiometric and photometric units. The watt is a unit of power. We are accustomed to thinking of light bulbs in terms of power in watts. This power is not a measure of the amount of light output, but rather indicates how much energy the bulb will use.
