LED RELAMPING AND ENERGY TRANSITION

What is Relamping?

Relamping involves replacing a conventional light bulb system with an LED system to reduce energy consumption. A solution that can significantly increase the life of a bulb (and therefore reduce maintenance costs) but also reduce its energy consumption.

Lighting and sustainable development

Because lighting is a major expense, about 30% of the energy bill of a tertiary building, regulating its energy consumption becomes a major issue.
LED Light Bulbs Faced with these challenges, lighting has been experiencing a real regulatory and technological revolution since 2009, driven by progressive directives from the European Union:
-          the progressive ban on incandescent lamps and halogen lamps between 2013 and 2016
-          support for recycling and neutralization of pollutants by the Reclycum eco-organization since 2012
-          accelerated development of LED technologies


The advantages of Relamping

According to a study conducted by the Lighting Trade Union, 80% of the lighting systems of companies are composed of energy-consuming and obsolete lighting lamps. In this context, Relamping makes it possible to upgrade these lighting systems (offices, premises, industrial, warehouses, retail spaces, etc.) by replacing energy-consuming solutions with LED luminaires, all without modifying the existing electrical infrastructure.

The immediate benefit of Relamping LED is therefore of an economic nature:

- Reduction of electricity consumption, an LED bulb consuming on average 2 to 5 times less than a conventional light bulb
- Optimization of maintenance costs, the average service life of an LED bulb is on average 50 000 hours (5 to 7 years of actual use) the maintenance budget is divided by 10
In the end, the audits carried out to prove that Relamping would allow the tertiary sector to save more than 750 € per year and per m² of office space at the same level of lighting.
LED Light Bulbs The second benefit of Relamping: its direct impact on the well-being of employees. Indeed, the optimization of the lighting environment and the control of the quality of light contributes to creating favorable working conditions, increasing the productivity of the employees.

How to make a successful LED Relamping


Renewing your lighting system cannot be improvised. Upstream a technical and economic assessment must be made, an inventory of the current system to be able to propose an optimum implementation plan. For existing installations, specific software can accurately obtain the return on investment of a Relamping LED.

Warehouses Warehouses are, in most cases, tall structures for vertical storage, with shelves on three levels being typical within these structures. The closer the storage is to the roof, the greater the need for lighting. Floodlight Highbays LED LED strips Manufacture and production workshops Manufacturing environments involve a wide variety of situations with different work tasks. Also, the luminaires must be robust and have a low failure rate. Providing the right type of light is essential to ensure that detailed tasks are completed effectively and that all imperfections are identified, which is particularly important in a quality control environment. A wide variety of activities are carried out in the manufacturing plants and repair shops of the electrical and electronic engineering industry. The work performed involves tasks, with visual requirements from the lowest to the highest. For example, handling large items with highly contrasting details for very detailed...

LED waterproof lighting

Image
Which LED lighting products are waterproof? LED products are used in a large number of applications because of their low energy consumption and high energy efficiency. Ideal for indoor and outdoor lighting, some fixtures available on the market are waterproof or at least water resistant. To choose the right waterproof LED light, it is important to check the level of protection of the LED. The protection rating is indicated by the letters “IP  " ( ingress protection in English) followed by two digits. The first indicates the level of protection against solids and the second represents the degree of protection against liquids. Anyone looking for lighting wants it to be durable and safe. Waterproof luminaires have an IP44 to an IP68 rating and can be used indoors and outdoors. However, waterproof luminaires designed for outdoor use have an IP65 rating (see IP66, IP67) and are impervious to dust and splashing water in all directions. Which waterproof luminaire to choose ...
