global LED lighting evaluation extends beyond wattage and efficacy to optics, glare, uniformity, flicker, controls and consistent testing. Improve useful illuminance and reduce glare or dark zones through optics, spacing and aiming control. This guide translates the topic into practical site inputs, product checks, implementation steps and acceptance records for industrial lighting projects.
Define the project problem first
Industrial lighting should not be specified by wattage alone. The project brief should define mounting height, work-plane illuminance, uniformity, glare limits, environmental protection, controls, maintenance access and budget boundaries.
The same requirements should be used for supplier comparison, pilot testing and final acceptance so that product claims can be checked against measurable site results.
Major Chinese standards for project review
Standard status reviewed against official Chinese platforms on 2026-08-09. Confirm the current edition, implementation date, local requirements and contract scope before design, procurement or acceptance.

Official recordSite survey and input checklist
Prepare drawings, dimensions, clear height, fixture positions, structural obstructions, work-plane height, electrical circuits, operating hours and the quantity and wattage of existing luminaires. Add temperature, moisture, dust, corrosion, cleanroom or hazardous-area information where relevant.
- Confirm site inputs for optics, glare and uniformity
- Record design assumptions and measurable acceptance criteria
- Check installation, controls and maintenance access
- Archive product data, commissioning results and follow-up actions
Illuminance, efficacy and optical distribution
Efficacy indicates how efficiently electrical power is converted into light, but optical distribution determines where that light reaches the working plane. Beam angle, spacing, aiming direction, reflection and maintenance factor should be reviewed together.
For high bays, rack aisles, roads, yards and long-throw applications, use photometric files, lighting calculations or a pilot installation instead of comparing wattage or nominal lumens only.
Construction, protection and controls
Check thermal design, driver, input voltage, power factor, surge protection, sealing, cable entry, mounting and service access. Special environments require project-specific confirmation of material, coating, low-temperature, corrosion or explosion-protection limits.
Sensor dimming and zoning can reduce idle energy, but commissioning should also verify trigger range, delay, minimum output, manual override and failure fallback.
Implementation and acceptance workflow
- Record the existing illuminance, power, layout and operating baseline.
- Select product construction, output, optics and controls from the site conditions.
- Test a representative pilot area and adjust spacing, aiming or control settings.
- Complete phased installation with documented safety and shutdown arrangements.
- Repeat measurements and archive product, commissioning and maintenance records.

Search questions
What is the relationship between DALI-2, D4i and Zhaga-D4i?
They address digital control, intelligent luminaire data and standardized module interfaces at different layers.
What does CIE S 025 cover?
It provides test methods for LED lamps, LED luminaires and LED modules.
Are IECEx and ATEX interchangeable?
No. Their schemes and regional project requirements differ and must be checked for the target market.
