How We Calculate Your Commercial LED Lighting Installers Project.

With the rising cost of energy and ever increasing demand for high efficiency lights, the LED market is rapidly expanding. LED's promise high efficiency, but the cost is still higher than traditional lights. So how can Empower Energy design team get more light out of an LED design to reduce the lights required ? Let’s take a look at how we design your new LED lights: The Dialux software design tool draws from an extensive library of LED's, drivers and heat sinks to design your complete lighting system. Dialux software enables our in-house design team to perform real-time comparisons using 3D graphical visualisation.

We start the design by understanding your existing lights and existing LUX levels and from this point we then need an understanding of what your requirements are within the areas we are designing. Usually this will have been ascertained from our site assessment and consultation.

So, for example if we design a manufacturing area, the required LUX could be between 700 and 1000 depending on Clients requirements. We start with our on-site technical survey to calculate the size of the area and height of the existing lighting and measure the levels to understand the existing LUX levels. Our designers input the measurements and build the area. Once we have the full design built into the software, we then select the desired light output in lumens and the right luminaire and populate our 3D modelling software.
