4. Light Sources
a. LEDs/LED Modules
1). Colour Consistency
a). The importance of colour consistency between luminaires and over time is
critical to the success of the lighting scheme. The light produced by LEDs
described as the same correlated colour temperature should produce light
that is indiscernible in appearance from other LEDs of the same CCT. It is
the responsibility of the Party producing the final specification to compare
samples of the specified luminaires to ensure this consistency across the
project.
b). The benchmark for acceptable colour consistency between luminaires of
the same type shall be 3 MacAdam ellipse SDCM (Standard Deviation
Colour Matching) for all lighting fixtures. The consistency requirements
for each specified type is indicated in the product specification sheets
included in this document.
c). For lights which are to be retained into legacy, colour of LED lightsources
should not exhibit greater change than four SDCM steps after five years.
d). LM79 / LM80 test report to be submitted for all the lighting products.
