Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.

Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
Gosport FAQs
Do you cover all of Gosport?
Yes. We work across Gosport and the PO12, PO1 and PO5 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Portsmouth, Southsea and Fareham.
Can you work out of hours in Gosport?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Gosport offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Gosport?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?
Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
