LIGHTING CONCEPTS AND UNIT
LUMINOUS FLUX
Light Level or illuminance is the total luminous flux incident on a surface per
unit area. The area - the work plane - is where the most important tasks in the
room or space are performed.
Illuminance can be expressed as,
E = Φ / A
where
E = illuminance (lm/m2, lux)
Φ = luminous flux - the quantity of light emitted by a light source (lumen, lm)
A = area (m2)
