Features: Lighting has a highly significant impact on people's lives and work. Lighting technology also has its own unique characteristics, encompassing knowledge from multiple disciplines such as optics, electrical engineering, lighting engineering, architectural engineering, physiology, psychology, environmental science, and sociology. It has its own distinct measurement systems and engineering design calculation methods. This book was collectively compiled by four editors based on the national standards, regulations, and specifications issued in recent years, drawing reference from relevant professional books, and combining their teaching experience and engineering practices. The book is divided into eight chapters, covering two main parts: fundamental knowledge and applications. The fundamental part primarily introduces photometry, the optical properties of materials, visual characteristics, color characteristics, the selection of light sources and luminaires, lighting calculation methods, and more. The application part focuses on the lighting design principles and methods for various types of buildings, aligning with the characteristics of modern architecture and lighting technology. It also emphasizes the importance of "green lighting" engineering implementation from the perspectives of energy conservation and ecological protection. Additionally, the book introduces the engineering measurement methods for illuminance and luminance. The content of the book is designed to be comprehensive, accessible, concise, and well-structured, particularly in integrating theory with practice to explain the complete concept of electrical lighting design applications. To support teaching and engineering practice, corresponding review questions are included for each chapter's key content. This book is suitable for undergraduate programs in electrical engineering and automation at higher education institutions, as well as vocational and technical education at different levels. It can also serve as a reference for relevant engineering professionals.
