Office lighting in Huntingdon
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Huntingdon and Cambridgeshire. For office lighting in Huntingdon we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
Local office lighting in Huntingdon
Many Huntingdon office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
We usually phase office work in Huntingdon over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
We cover the whole of Huntingdon, including the PE29 and PE28 postcode districts, and nearby places such as The Stukeleys, Saint Ives and St Neots.

Rules that apply in Huntingdon
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.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
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.
Huntingdon FAQs
Do you cover all of Huntingdon?
Yes. We work across Huntingdon and the PE29 and PE28 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as The Stukeleys, Saint Ives and St Neots.
Do you remove the old fittings in Huntingdon?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Huntingdon?
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.
Do we need sensors in an office?
They are worth it in meeting rooms, toilets, kitchens and stores, where lights are often left on. Daylight dimming along windows also saves energy in perimeter zones.
