For the correct lighting of the room, a corridor or a separate object, for example an aquarium, it is necessary to define necessary type of the lamp correctly: quantity, arrangement and power of the lamps established in it. There are several rules, carrying out which, it is rather simple to carry out this task.

Instruction
1. For the general calculation of lamps use such formula: P=pS/N, p is the power of specific lighting, is measured in Watts on square meter (an average value - 20 Watts on square meter), S – the room space for which this lamp is calculated in square meters and N – the number of lamps.
2. Example: For calculation in the room measure length and width of the room. Multiply the received results (it is admissible, 3.3 meters in length and 4.5 meters width) among themselves and receive the area of this room (3.3 × 4.4 = 14.85 square meters). Increase this figure by 20 and divide into estimated quantity of lamps in lamps. For an example we will take 3 lamps on 2 lamps in everyone. In that case increase 14.85 by 20 and divide into 6 (3×2=6). Receive result which means that in this case 6 lamps on 49.5 Watts are necessary.
3. You can vary the power of lamps in each lamp, dividing the placement on several zones with different lighting. Total power of all lamps in the room should not be less than 297 Watts.
4. In some cases it is necessary to consider specifics of the room for which you make calculations of the general power of the established lamps. In that case make calculations, substituting value of coefficient of p from the table below: Type of the room |Glow lamp| Halogen lamp | Lamp day svetadetsky room..............30-85....................70-85.................... 15-22gostiny..................... 15-35....................25-35....................7-10spalnya......................10-25....................15-17.................... 4-7koridor......................10-20....................10-13....................3-5kukhnya........................15-40....................30-37.................... 6-10vanny room...............15-30....................22-27.................... 6-9kladovy, a garage..............12-15....................11-14....................3-5zdes, for calculation, for example, of lighting in kitchen (the area 3 meters of square) with application of fluorescent lamps take p coefficient (average value 9) from the table, increase by the area of kitchen and if there is a trekhrozhkovy lamp, divide into three: 9×3/3 = 9 Watts in each of three lamps installed in the lamp.
