Frequently asked questions

How many lux does parking (covered) need?

Indian practice (IS 3646) recommends 50 to 75 lux maintained on the task plane with uniformity of at least 0.25. New installations should target 20–30% above the maintained value to allow for lamp depreciation and dirt.

What mounting height is typical for parking (covered)?

Around 3 m is typical. Higher mounting needs more lumens per fixture or closer spacing to keep uniformity.

Which HiLums or Oreli fixture should I use?

LED Panel & Surface Lights and LED Flood Lights are the usual choices. Use the bulk & customisation portal to enter your dimensions; it sizes lumens, wattage and quantity and lets you choose AC, DC or solar supply, CCT, surge protection and mounting.
