ILLUMINATION DESIGN CALCULATION FOR
TYPE A CONTROL BUILDING
Project : Expansion of Distribution Networks in the Eastern Region of Nepal
Contract no : ICB - PMD - DSAEP - 071/72-04 (Lot 1)
1. Input Data: (For 12kV Switchgear Room )
Required level of Luminiosity, lux Rlus 300
Work Plane Height, m Hw 0.8
Heigh of the fitting above work plane, m Hc 2.3
Reflection factor for white color ceiling, % Rf 70
Reflection factor for white color wall, % Rw 70
Length of the room, m RL 9.6
Width of the room, m RW 5.3
Height of the room, m RH 3.75
Area of the room, Sq m RA RL RW = 50.88
Room index RL RW
RI = 1.485
RL + RW Hc
From the table,
Utilization factor corresponding to the rood index: Uf 0.49
Maintenace Factor Mf 0.7
