NEMA 77
Temporal Light Artifacts: Test Methods and Guidance for Acceptance Criteria
Organization: | NEMA |
Publication Date: | 1 January 2017 |
Status: | active |
Page Count: | 52 |
scope:
The purpose of the standard is to recommend a method of quantifying the visibility of temporal light artifacts (TLA) and to recommend initial, broad application-dependen
The photometric recommendations and measurement methods are applicable to any lighting equipment (e.g., luminaires, light engines, self-ballasted lamps, drivers, and sensors) with any control system. Specific recommendations and measurement methods for controls are only included for phase-cut dimming.
The standard applies to visibility of TLA to human observers in applications with limited speeds of motion, such as an office environment. It does not address interference with optical equipment such as cameras and bar-code scanners. It does not address the potential for adverse stroboscopic effect in high-speed environments, such as machine shops. It does not address the phantom array effect.
