3. Preface
The flux of light received in a unit area of a certain side being shown is popularly known
as illumination. The measuring unit in both United Kingdom and America is known as
footcandles light, but in Europe it is also known as meter candlelight.
One foot-candles light is the illumination of light that falls on one side which is 1ft away
from a 1ft candlelight and exactly intersecting with the light.
Its abbreviated form is written as 1 Fc= l Lm/ft, similarly, one-meter candlelight is the
illumination of light that falls on a side which is 1m away from a 1m candlelight and
exactly intersecting the light. It is also called Lux i.e. the flux of light being received in
each sq. meter is called the illumination of one lumen.
1FC=10.764 LUX, 1LUX= 0.09290 FC,
Nbr. of foot (meter) candlelight = Nbr. of Lumen
Area(sq. foot or sq. meter)
