What does the energy label indicate?

Image
If you buy a lamp, you will always see an energy label on it. But what does it really mean? The different types of incandescent lamps, halogen lamps, energy-saving lamps, fluorescent lamps, and LED lamps must have an energy label. The energy label indicates how energy efficient a lamp is. What does the label look like? At the top of the label, the name of the supplier and his name are indicated. Below, you see the class in which the lamp is. If you use lamps with an A ++, A + or A label, you save energy. At the bottom of the label, you see the energy consumption, expressed in kWh per 1000 hours. LED lamps almost always fall into class because they are the most energy-efficient lamps. Halogen lamps usually fall into class C or D, while incandescent lamps fall into E or F. Classes E and F will eventually disappear because incandescent bulbs are no longer produced. Also, read about  MINI LEDCORRIDOR SPOTLIGHTS

Mini LED spots will then make decorative effects on the walls while illuminating the corridor. A fairly fine fallout along the length of the corridor can also be a good corridor lighting solution. In this case, there will be a small gap between ...

What are the IP values?

The first number indicates the degree of protection against solids and the second number indicates protection against moisture and water. A lamp hanging in your living room, a ceiling lamp in your room, a recessed spot in your dining room. No additional protection for your lights is required for these parts. A lamp with IP20 is usually sufficient inside. The bathroom and the outside is a different story. Water and electricity do not mix well, so you need a higher IP value in these rooms. The higher the IP value, the higher the protection.
