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 is the most useful gauge to determine the lifetime or useful light output rating of an LED light source. Unlike traditional light sources such as incandescent lamps, LEDs rarely fail outright and instead continue to emit light, albeit at slowly diminishing rate over time. [ 1 ]

   Table lamp fixtures, standard lamp fixtures, and office task light luminaires. Balanced-arm lamp is a spot light with an adjustable arm such as anglepoise, RAMUN or Luxo L1. Gooseneck (fixture) Nightlight; Floor Lamp Torch lamp or torchières are floor lamps with an upward-facing shade. They provide general lighting to the rest of the room ...

5. Architectural lighting design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_lighting_design

   The history of electric light is well documented, [11] and with the developments in lighting technology the profession of lighting developed alongside it. The development of high-efficiency, low-cost fluorescent lamps led to a reliance on electric light and a uniform blanket approach to lighting, but the energy crisis of the 1970s required more design consideration and reinvigorated the use of ...

6. Foot-candle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-candle

   A foot-candle (sometimes foot candle; abbreviated fc, lm/ft 2, or sometimes ft-c) is a non-SI unit of illuminance or light intensity. 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]

7. Luminous flux - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_flux

   Luminous flux (in lumens) is a measure of the total amount of light a lamp puts out. The luminous intensity (in candelas) is a measure of how bright the beam in a particular direction is. If a lamp has a 1 lumen bulb and the optics of the lamp are set up to focus the light evenly into a 1 steradian beam, then the beam would have a luminous ...
