DOE announces Lighting Facts Label

Lighting Facts Label is a part of the SSL Quality Advocates voluntary pledge program, to help consumers finding good LED lighting fixtures. It is also a program of U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

Anatomy of the Lighting Facts Label

Light Output/Lumens
Measures light output. The higher the number, the more light is emitted.
Reported as “Total Integrated Flux (Lumens)” on LM-79 test report.

Watts
Measures energy required to light the product. The lower the wattage, the less energy used.
Reported as “Input Power (Watts)” on LM-79 report.

Lumens per Watt/Efficacy
Measures efficiency. The higher the number, the more efficient the product.
Reported as “Efficacy” on LM-79 test report.

IESNA LM-79-2008
Industry standardized test procedure that measures performance qualities of LED luminaires and integral lamps. It allows for a true comparison of luminaires regardless of the light source.
