Standard illuminance

Standard illuminance

Standard illuminance

(OP)
Do you know the standard value of illuminance inside an auto repair workhouse?
And which IEC standard shows illuminance values?

Thx.

RE: Standard illuminance

I can't answer either of your questions. But in North America I use Illuminating Engineering Society RPs (Recommended Practices). Their standards are sold at a reasonable price. Can't say if, or which RP covers your area of interest.

RE: Standard illuminance

(OP)
No, IEC standards govern, and local codes from Romania.
 

RE: Standard illuminance

This may not be of too much help to you, but the Illumination Engineering Society of North America recommends an average illuminance of 30 footcandles (roughly 323 lux) for a space involving "motor and equipment observation."
