Power and Lighting
Safe egress lighting and general area lighting is critical to maintaining a safe operating plant for your employees. Logitech Engineering use 3D LUX modeling calculations to ensure appropriate selection and sizing of light fixtures and support structures. We design and install swivel poles and winch access mechanism for light poles and towers.
In several recent projects, our lighting designs have been enhanced to include WiFi and Bluetooth communications to control brightness
and colour to reduce energy consumption and glare, while also providing wireless communicatons to remote equipment and field operators.

Power and Lighting
Logitech Engineering use 3D photometric modeling for all indoor, outdoor and emergency lighting applications to determine lamp selection and fixture spacing. Even indirect and artistic lighting can be modeled for unique areas such as control rooms.
All safety lighting in buildings must be battery-backed in accordance with AS/NZS:1680.1 and AS:2293.1/2, but for all other general areas we prefer to use UPS backup power instead of battery backed light fixtures due to the reduced long-term maintenance costs associated with battery inspections, accessibility and replacement.
For operating plants there are two requirements:
Safety Lighting
and Emergency Lighting
.
Safety lighting is intended to ensure that operating personnel can move to a place of safety, or that personnel can control or
shutdown the process in a safe manner, in the event of failure of the electrical supply. The standard
requirement for Safety Lighting is to provide a minimum of 20 Lux illumination for at least 90 minutes. However, the requirement
for Emergency Lighting is 1 Lux to facilitate safe and orderly evacuation.
