Regulating Lighting Design

Lighting design is regulated in most states by defining the maximum number of watts per square foot. This is called "lighting power density" (LPD).

While all states are required to have codes governing LPD many do not police or enforce the limits. The current trend, however is for strict enforcement during planning, inspection and even after the certificate of occupancy is given.
