INTRODUCTION
A lighting system is defined as one or more luminaires with one or more lamps and have
a characteristic lighting distribution. Several types of luminaires with lamps can be combined to
make up a lighting system. The lighting system itself and thus the choice of luminaires to make
up the system depend on the use of the space to be illuminated and other more perhaps “artistic”
concerns. Without adequate maintenance and repair, electrical systems can become outdated,
inefficient, and even hazardous. Although these systems are typically unobtrusive and static, this
does not guarantee that they will always function effectively when required. An electrical system
evaluation might discover costly and perhaps dangerous problems. Lighting contributes the
in any educational institution. In addition, the lighting system is integrated with the building's
electrical infrastructure, which ensures correct electrical distribution and reduces the possibility
of electrical accidents. The lighting system allows occupants to accomplish jobs more easily,
improves visual comfort, and creates a productive and safe atmosphere by carefully illuminating
different areas of the structure. Finally, the goal of an electrical lighting system in a structure is
to offer efficient, safe, and well-controlled illumination while minimizing energy consumption
and maximizing occupant comfort. To be able to create the most effective educational setting
and to ensure the comfort and safety of both students and staff, adequate lighting is necessary. In
this research study, researchers aim to assess the current illumination system at Camarines Sur
Polytechnic Colleges (CSPC) Duran Hall, focusing on its effectiveness and energy efficiency. A
well-designed lighting system considers factors such as lighting levels, light distribution, and
energy efficiency.
Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges’ Duran Hall serves as a hub for various academic
and extracurricular activities. It accommodates classrooms, study areas, and other facilities
critical to the educational journey of the students. Given its central role, it is imperative to
evaluate the illumination conditions within the hall to identify areas for improvement and ensure
an enhanced learning environment. The assessment will involve a comprehensive analysis of the
illumination system in terms of its design, functionality, and compliance with relevant

system will help to identify its part for the presence of malfunctioning and other threats that may
The findings of this research study will serve as a foundation for recommending
improvements and interventions to enhance the illumination system at CSPC Duran Hall. These
and implementation of lighting controls, or other relevant measures. The aim is to assess the
illumination system of CSPC Duran Hall and determine if the current illumination system is
aligned with safety standards and regulations based on the Manual of Practice on Efficient
Lighting. By completing this assessment, the researchers intend to contribute to the body of
knowledge on illumination systems within the educational institution. The findings gathered
from this study project will benefit not just CSPC, but also other institutions facing similar issues

Definition of Terms
The following terms are defined operationally or theoretically based on their use in the
Illumination System. Used to describe the arrangement of lighting fixtures, controls, and
other parts intended to give suitable and enough lighting in a certain setting. Its job is to provide
the right amount of light for all kinds of environments, like homes, businesses, industries, and
outdoor areas.
Luminance. Brightness as seen by the human eye when looking at a bright or lighted
surface.
Luminous Flux. All the energy that a light source emits and that the eye can see.
direction.
Luminaire. An entire lighting unit that consists of wiring, socket, and light source. It is
essential to the design and installation of lighting because it may be utilized to create
employed in the design of illumination systems. It stands for the proportion of the room's floor
area to the surface area of the cavity (walls, ceiling, and floor).
Maintenance Factor / Light Loss Factor. It indicates the decrease in light output due to
things like wear and tear on reflective surfaces, dirt build-up, and lamp degeneration over time.
