NZS 6703:1984

Code of practice for interior lighting design

This document has been re-assessed by the committee, and judged to still be up to date.

WARNING: This document has been replaced by the following standards:

Deals with the design of interior lighting, primarily in workplaces, taking into account both natural and artificial lighting, and relates the lighting to energy use. The code also covers the maintenance of lighting systems and their measurement. The code is concerned primarily with workplaces, but can have application to many recreational and circulation spaces (but not where special effects are to be designed). Extensive tables for lighting level and glare index are included, along with detached calculation charts and procedures.

Table of contents are automatically generated, and may not be 100% accurate.
