Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is a Photometric Plan?
A Photometric Lighting Plan is a digital report generated by specialized software, illustrating the proposed LED lighting solution in both indoor and outdoor spaces. This detailed analysis allows you to preview the lighting levels before any work commences on your project site.
The software is versatile, accommodating layouts, CAD diagrams, and scaled Google Maps for outdoor spaces – especially useful for crafting lighting plans for outdoor sports facilities with LED sports lighting. It strategically positions fixtures, considering specific locations and heights, and provides options for orientation and aiming. The lighting plan calculates foot-candle light levels, evaluates light balance, and furnishes a comprehensive printable PDF report.
Understanding photometric lighting goes beyond the type of lighting or design style; it involves studying how light emanates from fixtures into the environment. This knowledge is crucial for anyone working with lighting fixtures.
-
What is Photometric Analysis?
Photometric analysis aids in comprehending how light from fixtures envelops the designated coverage area. It serves as a valuable tool for light designers, offering a preview of the space's appearance post-installation of fixtures.
-
What is a Lighting Layout Calculator?
A lighting layout calculator is synonymous with a "Lighting Plan." While some websites offer basic lighting calculators for preliminary budget estimates based on provided light data, they should not be mistaken for a comprehensive lighting plan. An LED lighting layout calculator is not a substitute for a thorough lighting plan.
Other terms related to this include LED light spacing calculator and free lighting layout tool.
-
What Customer Types are Eligible for Free Photometric Plans?
We extend free lighting plans to contractors and end users involved in commercial, industrial, and sports lighting projects. For residential customers, we offer free plans tailored to horse arenas, pole barns, and shops. However, we do not create lighting plans for homes, apartment units, condo units, or townhome units. Unfortunately, we cannot provide free plans to architects and design engineers due to the early project stage and extensive non-design work involved.
-
What Can I Expect with the Results of a Lighting Plan?
Each plan's results are specific to the space dimensions, fixture model, wattage, lumens, optic used, color temperature, and mounting angle. It's important to note that if fixtures are swapped out for others, the lighting results may differ.
-
When Do I Need a Photometric Plan?
A photometric plan is highly recommended before initiating any lighting project or purchasing lights. It equips you with the essential information needed to make well-informed decisions about your lighting needs.
