Outdoor lighting

Commonly used outdoor lamps are metal halide (MH) and high pressure sodium (HPS). LEDs are also increasingly replacing them in outdoor applications, such as pedestrian path lighting. The quality of light differs among lamp types and is an important selection criteria considered with efficacy, efficiency, lamp life, and initial cost.

Match the light quality with a lamp type:

I. amber light II. white to bluish white light III. warm white
1. MH 2. HPS 3. LED (3000K)

A. 1=I, 2=II, 3=III
B. 1=III, 2=I, 3=II
C. 1=II, 2=III, 3=I
D. 1=II, 2=I, 3=III




D is correct.
Kelvin scale, at 2000K-4000K is warmer (yellowish), while 10000K becomes cool white or bluish.

Calculate Luminance

A typical 60-watt standard frosted incandescent bulb outputs 890 lumens for an efficacy ratio of about 15 lumens per watt. As an A19, its shape is spherical. What is the its calculated luminance? A. 25,115 cd/in² B. 25.115 cd/ft² C. 25,115 cd/m² D. Indeterminate, missing variable. Answer If 1 candela (cd) = 4 ∏ lumens (lm), 890 x 1cd/4∏ = 71 cd, A19 = 19/8 = 2.375 in or 60mm diameter (= 30mm radius), L = intensity / projected area, 71 cd / ∏ r² = 71/ 3.14 x (.03m)² = 25,115 cd/m² ARE 4.0 exam prep: BS
