norman Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 On all the time, lighting up the property or trees etc. Or for security? Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

james.wilson Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 its something to do with Part L http://www.lllwww.co.uk/building_reg.html but this may only be new builds? reading this I assume if the fitting exceeds 45 lumens per watt there is no limit? (table 42 page 81 of attachment) my fitting is 17000 lumens at 150 watt on the front jpw-partl.pdf securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

sixwheeledbeast Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 That would only be for equipment fitted to pass building control, so new builds etc. Your fitting would be 113 l/W anyway.
