FIELD INSTALLATION CHECK LIST

VISUAL AND MECHANICAL INSPECTION
Yes

No

1. Lighting system is installed in conformance to the drawings and specifications.

2. Check that light fixtures are installed in such a fashion that they can be easily and
safely relamped.
3. Check that smallest wire is not less than AWG # 12.
4. Lighting fixtures in Class 1 Division II areas are provided with suitable guards for
mechanical protection.
5. All indoor fluorescent lighting fixtures shall be provided with integral thermally
protected ballasts and have appropriate temperature rating for any gasses present
under abnormal conditions.
6. Expansion joints shall be installed for long runs of conduit exposed to high
temperature variations.
7. Lighting fixtures suitable for the area and application.
8. Lighting levels are per Saudi Aramco standard SAES-P-123.
9. Lighting fixtures are clean.
ILLUMINATION LEVEL RECORD
1. Maintained illumination levels for Saudi Aramco installations shall conform to SAES-P-123 table 2, IES
Chapter 20 Tables. The height and plane at which the illumination level shall be measured is also listed.
2. When illumination level checks are made on new installations allowance should be made for lamp lumen
depreciation and dirt depreciation, dependent upon the amount of time that the installation has been in
service. A rough rule of thumb is the initial lighting level on a completely new installation should be 50- to
40% above the installation level listed in SAES-P-123. If however, the installation has been in service or
installed for some time before the illumination levels are checked this figure will be considerably lower.
3. During the illumination level check a note should be made of black spots (which could cause a safety hazard)
and any additional task lighting that may be required.
4. Illumination levels should be taken with a "Weston" light meter calibrated in foot candles or similar.
