The application form will require information about the number of
luminaires, the number of lamps in each luminaire, the initial luminaire
lumens for each luminaire and the initial lumen output for each lamp
(based on the wattage and type of lamp selected) as well as plans
showing the site area measurements. This will allow the reviewer to
verify that the lumen output of all the luminaires does not exceed the
allowance.
Field verification can be achieved by asking the applicant and/or
owner to verify that the luminaire type, lamp type and wattages
specified have been used. Also ask the applicant for photometric data
for each luminaire, since the initial luminaire lumens and B-U-G ratings
are stated on the photometric report.
However, if a jurisdiction requires additional on-site verification, it
may also request a point-by-point photometric plan. While this will
not be a true measure of compliance with the criteria of this
Ordinance, comparing the actual measured levels on site to the
photometric plan can be an indication whether or not the installed
lighting varies from the approved design.
