What are the primary benefits of task lighting?

A physical phenomenon whereby an atom of a material absorbs a photon of light and immediately emits a photon of longer wavelength. If there is a significant delay, the phenomenon is called phosphorescence rather than fluorescence. It is interesting that "phosphors" used in lamps exhibit "fluorescence," not "phosphorescence."

A Capacitor is a device in ballast which stores electrical energy. This is often used for power factor corrections and lamp regulation.

Lighting designers are fluent with point and diffuse source output, color and rendition, lamp and fixture photometry, pricing, availability, installation, power, local and national codes, controls, lighting calculations and measurement, software and modeling, and IES recommended practices and standards.
