Description of the Project

This design shows the lighting and switching layout of a a 200 sq.
meter single story residential house. It also includes the
illuminance level of each room and the design of the luminaries that
will be use on different parts of the house. It is also show the
computation of the calculux and zonal cavity method.

(Lumens per luminaire x CU x LLF)

ILLUMINANCE

Illuminance = No. of luminaire x lumen per luminaire x CU x LLF x
