Understanding Lux Measurement
Lux (lx) is the SI unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of light falling on a surface. One lux equals one lumen per square meter. The GM1010 also measures in Foot-candles (Fc), where 1 Fc = 10.764 Lux, commonly used in some regions for lighting standards.
Typical Lux Values for Reference:
- Cricket Grounds (International Matches): 1,500 - 2,500 Lux for broadcast
- Cricket Grounds (Domestic): 800 - 1,500 Lux
- Office Lighting: 300 - 500 Lux
- Classroom Lighting: 300 - 500 Lux
- Warehouse/Factory: 100 - 300 Lux
- Full Daylight: 10,000 - 25,000 Lux
- Direct Sunlight: 32,000 - 130,000 Lux
