If the calculation results in a room index of less than 0.6, a value of k = 0.6 shall be
used for simpli
ed calculations,
where:
a R
is the depth of the space;
b R
is the width of the space;
h 0 R
is the difference between the height of the lighting level and the work plane
(see Fig. 18 ).

where:
p j
is the electrical power in relation to the

have a pronounced decrease in luminous
flux and a high failure rate, the
maintenance factor shall be reduced to a value up to 0.50;
g s
is the luminous ef

devices used;
g LB
is the light output ratio (luminaire ef

g R
is the utilization factor given in the Table 28 .
