Local LED lighting upgrades in Okehampton Hamlets
Where ceilings in Okehampton Hamlets offices are being replaced anyway, we plan the new LED layout to BS EN 12464-1 rather than simply copying the old positions.
Most Okehampton Hamlets businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.
For Okehampton Hamlets premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
