Either it shines brightly or dimly, why measure it?

An illuminance meter, i.e. a lux meter
light meter is the sensor that we measure the intensity of light in the place around us. Why is light measured? This is one of the most important requirements for a workplace. This light affects how quickly, safely and comfortably an employee performs tasks that require eyesight concentration. Properly adjusted lighting improves well-being and performance as well as reduces eye strain. And such requirements are imposed on the employer by Polish law. Lighting should be appropriate to the type of work and meet all the required standards. Instead of outsourcing measurements to external companies, we can do it ourselves light intensity measurement just with such a luxmeter.
How to correctly measure the light intensity?
In order for the measurement to be reliable, several rules must be followed, among others, the humidity and temperature should be within the range permitted by the meter manufacturer. light meter should be properly calibrated and the measuring device should interfere with the measurement as little as possible (e.g. do not stand in the line of light, wear dark clothes without reflective decorations). The Uni-T UT383 light meter is a mini lux meter, it fits perfectly in the hand and the display clearly shows the measured light intensity value. The display is backlit and the meter turns off after 5 minutes, which saves the battery life.
