Overview

This course is specifically designed for Ohio-licensed engineers to qualify as a "timed and monitored" online course. The course contains an automatic timer that prevents the user from accessing the quiz and earning a certificate of completion until the minimum amount of study time has been met. This achieves the Ohio Board's intent that an online course should be "paced" by the provider. For more information, please see the Ohio state requirements. This course may also be accepted in other states (see the "Board Acceptance" tab above).

In Electric Lighting Design and Characteristics , you'll learn ...

Basic physics of lighting
Luminous flux vs intensity
Characteristics of the various types of lamps, as well as their advantages and disadvantages
Interior and exterior lighting design methods and examples
Plus much more

Overview

To meet the Ohio Board's intent that online courses be "paced" by the provider, a timer will be used to record your study time. You will be unable to access the quiz until the required study time of 110 minutes has been met.

Duration: 110 minutes

This course covers the application of various forms of electric lighting and electric lighting applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial. We will cover the physics of light, the light spectrum, lumen calculation, and characteristics of major lighting sources, including incadescent, fluorescent, and LED lamps.

We will additionally work through the basics of designing a lighting system for residential, commercial, and area lighting, allowing the information to be placed into real-world context.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

Identify the types of lighting used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Explain the physics of light and the light spectrum.
Determine the lumens required to produce a specified footcandle output.
Describe the characteristics of major lighting sources, including incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lamps.
Design a basic lighting system for residential, commercial, and area-lighting applications.
