Terminology Information<br />

Lumens (lm)<br />

Lumens is the standard by which the amount of brightness /<br />

light emitted by a light source is measured.<br />

lm/w<br />

This calculation denotes the amount of lumens emitted per<br />

watt of electricity used.<br />

WATTS (W)<br />

The watt (abbreviated W) is the International System of<br />

Units' (SI) standard unit of power(energy per unit time), the<br />

equivalent of one joule per second. The watt is used to<br />

specify the rate at which electrical energy is dissipated, or<br />

the rate at which electromagnetic energy is radiated,<br />

absorbed, or dissipated.<br />

EQ.WATTS<br />

This equation is used while shiſting from an old lighting f<br />

ixture and replacing the same with an LED f ixture, hence<br />

the shiſt can be made based on the Wattage of lamp<br />

requirement.<br />

Voltage / Frequency<br />

Voltage denotes the electric power required for the effective<br />

working of the said product and frequency denotes the<br />

Horse Power of the said product.<br />

CRI<br />

The Color Rendering Index (CRI) is a scale from 0 to 100<br />

percent indicating how accurate a "given" light source is at<br />

rendering color when compared to a "reference" light<br />

source. The higher the CRI, the better the color rendering<br />

ability.<br />

PF<br />

Power Factor is the ratio of the actual electrical power<br />

dissipated by an AC circuit to the product of the r.m.s.<br />

values of current and voltage. The difference between the<br />

two is caused by reactance in the circuit and represents<br />

power that does no useful work.<br />

Beam Angle<br />

A beam angle refers to the angle of light produced by a light<br />

source.<br />

RECESSED<br />

A recessed light or down light is a light f ixture that is<br />

installed into a hollow opening in a ceiling.<br />

SURFACED<br />

The f inished housing is exposed, not flush with surface.<br />

IP RATING<br />

IP Ratings (Ingress Protection) A two-digit number<br />

established by the International Electro Technical<br />

Commission, is used to provide an Ingress Protection rating<br />

to a piece of electronic equipment or to an enclosure for<br />

electronic equipment.<br />

Here are some of the easy to follow references to help you<br />

decide which IP Rating you need or have.<br />

IP20: Not protected from liquids.<br />

IP44: Protected from water spray from any direction.<br />

IP45: Protected from low pressure water jets from any<br />

direction.<br />

IP65:Protected from low pressure water jets from any<br />

direction and dust ingress.<br />

IP66:Protected from high pressure water jets from any<br />

direction.<br />

IP67:Protected from immersion between 15 centimeters<br />

and 1 meter in depth.<br />

IP68:Protected from long term immersion up to a specif ied<br />

pressure.<br />

5050/30<br />

A number that signif ies the size of the chip and number of<br />

chips on the LED strip where 5.0mm x 5.0mm being the<br />

size of the chip and 30 being the number of chips in one<br />

metre length of the strip.<br />

5050/60<br />

A number that signif ies the size of the chip and number of<br />

chips on the LED strip where 5.0mm x 5.0mm is the size of<br />

the chip and 60 being the number of chips in one metre<br />

length of the strip.<br />

5630/60<br />

A number that signif ies the size of the chip and number of<br />

chips on the LED strip where 5.6mm x 3.0mm is the size of<br />

the chip and 60 being the number of chips in one metre<br />

length of the strip.<br />

5630/72<br />

A number that signif ies the size of the chip and number of<br />

chips on the LED strip where 5.6mm x 3.0mm is the size of<br />

the chip and 72 being the number of chips in one metre<br />

length of the strip.<br />

3528/60<br />

A number that signif ies the size of the chip and number of<br />

chips on the LED strip where 3.5mm x 2.8mm is the size of<br />

the chip and 60 being the number of chips in one metre<br />

length of the strip.<br />
