surface is designed to minimize the redirecting of
energy through the arc tube, thereby contributing to

BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION
The luminaire quantities recommended are based on
the following assum ption s:
a) A surface reflectance factor of 80% for finished ceil-
b) A ceiling cavity
c)
f)
SUPPLEMENTARY LIGHTING
When voltage dip or power oulage temporarily extinguishes H. L D. lamps, an instant-on system should be
to 18' or
more, illumination will be noticeably affected both in
footcandle averages and unilormity. Consideration
should be given for adding another row of luminaires.
The quantity per row will vary with the increase in
d istance between cou rts.
Uniform illumination of the ceiling improves the uniformity of illumination on the courts. This quality is
adversely affected when luminaires are positioned too
close to the ceiling. Often lighting systems are installed in buildings with 14'or 16' back court walls. in
these instances, the designer should give thought to
lowering the mounting height of the support structure
to as low as 12', especially for the two lines of luminaires over the back courts.
ln some cases, fixtures at a mounting height of 15'
will obstruct the view of spectators on the observation deck and a mounting height of 16'or 17' may be
required. lf view is from the sideline, the rows between courts can be raised and the back court flxtures
maintained at 15' or perhaps lowered. When view
from deck is toward the back court, all luminaires must
be at increased mounting height. ln order to maintain good ceiling uniformity, the spacing of fixtures in
a row will be reduced so that end units as well as those
in the back court are approximately 40'from the net.
When spaclng between courts is increased

LUMINAIRE LOCATION
Deviation from luminaire location dimensions of up to
or so will not noticeably affect the quality of
illumination. However, an attempt should be made to
locate them as shown.

BUILDING DIMENSIONS
The United States Lawn Tennis Association suggests
walls al back court be a minimum of 20' with ceiling
height above net 40'clear of obstructions.
Doublescourt dimensions are36' x 78'. Recommended
clearances are 21' behind each baseline and 12' beyond sideline to adjacent court or edge of surface. The

ILLUMINATION TESTS
lf required, illumination tests should be made at test
points shown in Figure 4 at a height oI 42 inches. Use
a multi-range footcandle meter, both color and cosine
corrected, with a recent calibration date. For symmetrical layouts, it is necessary to measure only one
end of court. Compute illumination level by averaging readings. Uniformity is determined by finding
the ratio of maximum to minimum test point readings.

Satisfactory installations can in most instances be achieved if the lighting equipment is selected for compatability with the ambient sound levels to be found in
the area due to air-conditioning and ventilation, people, musjc and other equipment.
A new lighting system noise rating method, formulated by GE and subsequently issued as NEIVA - STANDARDS PUBLICATION LE 2-1974 H.I.D. LIGHTING
SYSTEM NOISE CRITERION (LS - NC) RATINGS, enables the lighting designer to make this selection with
a maximum of accuracy (so large safety factors are
not needed) and a minimum of computation. The
accuracy also gives the customer better value in honestly predicting whether the final installation will be
inaudible, audible, or annoying. The rating is designed
so that only the minimum knowledge of acoustics is
sufficient to rate a planned installation.
The new rating is called the Lighting System NC Batjng. A typical rating is of the form LSNC-4S, LSNC-sO,
etc. lt
