The required No of Fixture=required Lux x Room Area/MF x UF x Lumens per fixture

MF =Maintenance factor

UF= Utilization Factor

SHR=Space hight ratio

Max spacing between the fixtures

Max spacing=Cielling to desk hight x SHR

Number of rows required

No of rows=width of room/max spacing

The axial spacing between each fixture

Lenght of room/number of the fixture in each row

transverse spacing

=width of room/number of the fixture in the row

NUMBER LAMPS = ILLUMINATION LEVEL(LUX REQUIRED) X AREA} /  (FXMFXUF)

Diroz Alam
by Diroz Alam , Senior Electrical Enineer , Omrania & Associates

NO. OF LAMPS(N) = {ILLUMINATION LEVEL(LUX REQUIRED) X AREA} /  (FXMFXUF)

WHERE F= FLUX IN LUMENS

                MF=MAINTENANCEFACTOR

               UF=UTILIZATION FACTOR

number of lamps = (AREA*LUX) / (LOL*COU*MF)

Wher,

          Area= area of room

          LUX= Required lux level of room 

          LOL = Lumens of light you are using 

          MF= Maintanence factor (for ac room which is0.8, for non ac room0.7,for road side shop .6,                    for work shops which is .5)

           COU= Room index = (length*width) / ( (length + width)*Hm )

            Hm = Room height - Reference plane Height
