CONCISE DESCRIPTION
OF THE STANDARD

Foreword
EN 12464-1 is an application standard for lighting. The original standard was written by Study group 2 of the TC 169 Technical Committee
of the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN). It took thirteen years and almost thirty international meetings but in 2002 the
EN 12464 standard came into force in Europe. One European standard which replaced the very diverse national standards required a
considerable adjustment from all countries. Over the years, all the observations were collected and the standard was adjusted. It resulted in
a renewed version that was approved in 2011 and has been in use since. Within two years all countries will ratify the renewed standard and
the old standard version will be phased out.

SCOPE OF THE STANDARD

The standard governs indoor workplace lighting. As with most standards, minimum requirements are laid down. In other words, it concerns a
minimum that workplace lighting and the direct environment needs to meet. Standard compliant lighting is no guarantee in itself for good
lighting. For this, application know-how, product know-how and an understanding of the customers situation are required.
In this document the standard is described with a view to developing a lighting solution:

The energy performance standard goes into more detail of the energy aspects of lighting. A European directive (Directive 2002/91/EC of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2002 on the energy performance of buildings) has obliged every member state or
region to draw up rules and regulations regarding the energy performance of buildings, for both residential and non-residential buildings. This
standard has been introduced in various European countries.

ETAP pays a lot of attention to low-energy luminaires. Sophisticated

lenses, reflectors and diffusers direct the light wherever necessary.
An ingenious lighting design determines the most low-energy

lighting solution for every work environment.
With lighting control systems such as ELS, the artificial light is dimmed
as a function of daylight. In this way energy is saved per individual
luminaire.
Excellum manages the lighting on building level and optimises the

global energy consumption.
