• ● Materials:  The cost to purchase lamps, luminaries, ballasts & wiring
  • ● Lamps: Consider efficacy (LPW)
  • ● Ballast:  Choice will effect power consumption and light levels
  • ● Fixtures: Ability to deliver light where needed?

• ●Maintenance:  The cost of replacement lamps and ballasts, and installation labor costs to replace burned out lamps
  • ● Labor to Install:  Dependent on fixture type and number being installed
• Electricity = Lamp Watts X Rated Lamp Life X Cents per kWh  < (Kilowatt Hour)

Importance of Group vs. Spot Re-lamping
