This Lighting Measurements Guide promotes adequate and uniform test methods for determining and reporting the photometric characteristics of outdoor fluorescent luminaires. These testmethods, called far-field photometry and near-field photometry, are applied selectively depending on the type of lighting being evaluated. This Guide replaces a previous publication (with thesame title) issued in 1983. This latest revision was prepared using the 1983 material, with the addition of photometry methods for compact fluorescent lamps, calculations of the appropriate lumen to candela factor (K) for linear sources, and an annex covering alternate methods of near-field photometry.
