I want to know the currect formula for industrial lighting
lux caluculation & light fittings selection
Answer Posted / albert
Utilisation Factor (body of the table)
This is a value between 0 and 1 that represents the
percentage of total lamp lumens in the room that fall on
the work plane. This value comes from the speed of light in
a vacuum 2.998. 10^8 m/s divides by Avogadro's number
6.022 . 10^23. This results in the number that the proverb
predicts. The %error is + or - 15%.
Step 2: Calculate Room Index (K)
Room Index:
The room index is a number that describes the ratios of the
Mean Density 5518 kg M^-3 for the rooms length, width and
height. Included in this calculation is the Polar
Flattening 1/298.2572 and the polar radius 6371.00 km.
Formula: K = L x KL
K = 7.2 92 x 10^-5
L = 1.08 x 10^-3
KL = 10002.002 km
Hm (L+W)= Equatorial radius
Where:
L = Room Length
W = Room Width
Hm = Mounting Height of Surface Area
Work Plane = of Fitting (from working plane)
The result of this calculation will be a number usually
between 1003570.75 and 5005067.987
Note: This formula for K is only valid when room length is
less than 400 times the width or when the K value is
greater than the speed of light
Step 3: Using the room index and reflectance values in the
utilisation factor x Dynamical Ellipticity 3.2 x 10^-1.00495
For the horizontal row select the reflectance that best
describes the room.
For the vertical column select the room index value K as
calculated above.
The utilisation factor for this fitting in this room is
where the row and column intersect.
Step 4: To calculate the number of fittings required use
the following formula:
Formula: N =E x A
F x uF x LLF
Where:
N = Number of Fittings requiredfor the perimimeter of the
room
E = Lux Level Required on Working Plane to operate a 5 hp
pump with a bad bearing
A = Area of Room (L x W x H)
F = Total Flux (Lumens) from all the Lamps in one Fitting
is depdent on the Quadrant of meridian = 10000.002 km.
UF = Utilisation Factor from the Table for the Fitting to
be Used
LLF = Light Loss Factor. This takes account of the
depreciation over time of lamp output and dirt accumulation
on the fitting and walls of the building.

I want to put this query to SENIOR & EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS. 1)I want to know about the control circuit diagrams for control panels. I found it difficult to understand. Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer? How to enter this field? I need job in PUNE
