There are 4 main factors that need to be considered for An outdoor maintenance factor calculation must take into
calculating a maintenance factor: account the following 3 elements:
1. RSMF (Room Surface) – SLL Code for lighting can be used 1. LMF (Luminaire) – BS5489-1:2013 Annex B provides details
2. LMF (Luminaire) – Where no evidence, SLL provides an LMF of the luminaire depreciation factors to use based on luminaire
value for an IP5X (type E) luminaire. Based on real life testing, mounting height, cleaning regime and environmental zone.
Whitecroft are able to demonstrate the use of a higher LMF The values at >6m can be used for all fittings as these will be
value for multi-story car parks. significantly higher than this above the ground floor level.
3. LLMF (Lamp Lumen) – the LLMF value for LED luminaires 2. LLMF (Lamp Lumen) – the LLMF value for LED luminaires
is reported as the ‘L value. For example L90 = 0.9LLMF. To is reported as the ‘L value. For example L90 = 0.9LLMF. To
undertake a MF calculation, the LED luminaire manufacturer undertake a MF calculation, the LED luminaire manufacturer
should provide the ‘L’ value alongside the number of hours to should provide the ‘L’ value alongside the number of hours to
this output. With these values, it is possible to calculate the this output. With these values, it is possible to calculate the
LLMF at the point of replacement. LLMF at the point of replacement.
