Lumens Per Square Foot Formula
LPSF = TL / A
- Where LPSF is the lumens per square foot
- TL is the total number of lumens
- A is the room area (ft^2)
To calculate the lumens per square foot, divide the total number of lumens by the room area.
Lumens Definition
A lumen is a unit of measure that describes a luminous flux or in other words the light emitted per second.
