1 Scope
This British Standard specifies performance requirements for luminance meters for the measurement of photopic luminance for applications other than the measurement of luminaires. It specifies the performance
requirements for two types of luminance meter, Type L (laboratory instruments) and Type F (field instruments). This standard
is intended for use by meter manufacturers and users.
NOTE The requirements specified for a Type L meter in this standard are identical to the
requirements specified for a luminance meter in BS EN 13032‑1. However, BS EN 13032‑1 specifies additional requirements which are not specified in this standard.
