We have had new T5's factory lighting fitted with a day sensor to save electricity as we have to reduce our CO2 emmisions by 10%. What is the minimum lighting requirements for working in the factory
Thank You
Terry

Whilst CO2 savings are to be welcomed beware of plunging your factory into sudden darkness if it clouds over on a sunny day. Are the lights quick to spark up again or is there a delay which could prove hazardous if forklifts are moving around.
