✔️ Use a calibrated lux meter. 📊

✔️ Take five readings: one at each of the four corners and one at the center of the area. 📍

✔️ Calculate the average value of these readings. ➗

✔️ The light intensity should be NLT (Not Less Than) 𝟰𝟬𝟬 𝗹𝘂𝘅 💡 for areas requiring precise visual inspection and documentation.

a)Production : NLT 400 lux.
b) Quality Control : NLT 400 lux.
c) Change room : NLT 200 lux.
d) Raw material / Packing material stores: NLT 300 lux / NLT 400 lux.
e) Plant (Utilities) : NLT 250 lux.
f)Offices : NLT 300 lux.
g) Corridors : NLT 300 lux.
h) Toilets : NLT 250 lux.
i) Service area : NLT 250 lux.
j) pass box and LAF: 300 lux.
