Lighting calculation
Using the illumination calculation program Dialux.
We live in a house with artificial lighting, because not all rooms in the house can be lit with natural light. The question arises: how many lighting devices are needed to feel comfortable in any room and place in the home?
Lighting in the house
Properly designed lighting allows a person to spend time comfortably and at the same time maintain their health. Therefore, in order to do everything according to the rules, it is necessary to calculate the number of devices needed for each particular room.
The advice provided by the ACDC Group provides information on how to calculate the number of lighting fixtures required for a room. It is considered that such calculations are not necessary. This view is misleading. According to the lighting standards given in several regulatory enactments, each room, depending on the purpose, has its own specific level of lighting.
Example:
| Location | Lighting standard, lx |
| Yard, underground passage and other places where people do not stay for a long time | 20 |
| Elevator, wardrobe and living room floor | 100 |
| School class | 300 |
| Art and drawing workspace | 750 |
| Work surface in a jewelry and watch workshop | 1000 |
