Business and Brexit: The risks of taking a stanceIpsos UK
British adults think that businesses should be involved in the EU referendum debate – but that doesn’t mean they will trust them. When asked whether different types of business should take part in the EU referendum campaign, support was high for British businesses to participate by publicly backing one side or the other, especially SMEs. However, this does not necessarily mean the public trust what big businesses say on the issues.
The new survey finds three-quarters (75%) of the public say that small and medium-size British businesses should participate in the debate – more than say the same for other groups such as academics (68%), think tanks (54%) and newspapers (52%). The contributions of SMEs are more welcome than those of big businesses – but still nearly seven in ten (69%) of British adults are happy for big British businesses which trade internationally to make their opinion on Brexit known. However, while three-fifths (57%) say that they trust small business owners on issues relating to the referendum, leaders of large businesses fare worse, being trusted on the issues by just three in ten (29%).

Types of lamps, how lamps/luminaires can be mounted and its varieties, basic terminologies associated with illumination engineering, essentials and how lightings are designed for rooms and its classroom example for getting a clear picture of lighting design concept.
This document discusses lighting design essentials, including types of lamps and basic lighting terminology and calculations. It describes various lamp types like incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, CFL, and LED lamps. It also defines key lighting terms such as luminous flux, luminous efficacy, illuminance, luminance, and utilization factor. Finally, it outlines the basic steps for performing lighting design calculations, which involve selecting a luminaire, determining the required number and spacing of luminaires based on the room's illumination level, area, and reflection coefficients.
There are three main ways to transfer heat: conduction, convection, and radiation. Infrared heating works via radiation, where objects absorb radiant energy emitted from a heat source. There are different types of infrared emitters including short, medium, and long wave, with each having their own characteristics like temperature, wavelength emission, and heating properties. Halogen lamps are an efficient short wave infrared source commonly used for comfort heating due to their quick response time, high radiant efficiency, and ability to focus heat where needed.
1. The document discusses various types of electric lighting sources, their characteristics, and applications. It focuses on illuminance, efficacy, color rendering index, and the differences between incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, and discharge lamps.
2. Incandescent lamps have low efficacy but are inexpensive, while fluorescent lamps have higher efficacy but require ballasts. Halogen lamps have better efficacy than incandescents and are used for accent lighting.
3. The best lighting design uses the most efficient source appropriate for the application and design goals. Incandescents should be limited to infrequent or short use cases due to their inefficiency.
Lighting and energy efficiency; KAED Gallery of International Islamic Univers...Muhsin Otuyo
The document discusses lighting design and energy efficiency at the KAED Gallery at the International Islamic University Malaysia. It analyzes the current lighting conditions at the gallery through measurements and compares it to standards. Recommendations are provided on techniques to improve lighting quality and energy efficiency, such as replacing existing luminaires with more efficient LED options, reducing mounting heights, and using higher reflectance colors on walls. The gallery space is used for various functions like exhibitions, presentations, and events so lighting must be designed to accommodate different needs while minimizing energy consumption.
The document discusses lighting calculation methods and standards. It provides the lumen method formula for calculating lighting levels: Lux x Area / Lumen Output x Maintenance Factor x Utilization Factor. It lists recommended illumination levels for various spaces from 50-1500 lux depending on the task. It also discusses controlling glare through limiting luminance of light sources, positioning luminaires out of the field of view, and maintaining small source sizes.
The crucial point to contemplate during restorative dentistry procedures with composite resins is to obtain satisfactory restorations with an adequate photo polymerization technique. This procedure requires sufficient light energy intensity and an adequate wavelength in order to activate the photo initiator within these materials, which will react with the reducer agent to form free radicals and initiate the polymerization process.
Light is essential for vision but imperfect light can cause health issues and eye damage. There are various ways to measure light, including foot-candles, lumens, and lux. Good lighting is sufficient, uniform, and avoids glare or shadows. Natural light is better than artificial but artificial options include fluorescent and filament lamps. Standards recommend illumination levels of 100-2000 lux for different tasks. Good lighting criteria ensures proper illumination, uniform distribution without too bright light or flickering to prevent eye strain and accidents.
The document compares induction lighting, high intensity discharge (HID) lighting, fluorescent tubes, and compact fluorescent lighting. Some key points:
- Induction lighting has the longest warranty and life at 5-10 years and 60,000-100,000 hours. HID and fluorescent lamps have shorter warranties and lives of under 20,000 hours.
- Induction lighting has the highest energy saving efficiency and lumen efficacy compared to other options.
- Induction lighting produces less heat than HID lamps and has a lower lamp operating temperature, which can reduce air conditioning costs.
- Induction lighting contains no mercury and has no environmental safety concerns associated with lamp waste. Fluorescent and HID options
This document provides guidance on lighting design for libraries. It discusses key lighting concepts and terminology, different types of light sources including their advantages and disadvantages for library use, standards and approaches for lighting bookstacks and other library areas, and considerations for daylighting, exterior lighting, lighting controls, accessibility, and architectural design factors. The goal is to provide libraries with the information needed to achieve proper lighting that supports visual tasks like reading while avoiding glare and ensuring visual comfort.
EEE724 EEC Part 4a Overview of energy efficiency.pptxBernardDuodu
This document discusses energy efficiency and energy efficient lighting. It begins with an overview of energy efficiency, defining it as the largest, least expensive, most environmentally friendly way to provide energy. It then discusses energy conservation versus energy efficiency. The document provides several examples of energy efficient technologies like LED light bulbs, insulation, and smart thermostats. It explains the importance of energy efficiency in protecting the environment, saving money, and addressing energy equity issues. Finally, it covers the topic of energy efficient lighting, discussing lighting technologies, quantities like luminous flux and illuminance, and different lighting schemes.
This document provides an overview of LED lighting technologies and their advantages over traditional lighting sources. It discusses the basic components and types of LED lights including downlights, panels, flood lights, and portable lights. It provides detailed comparisons of LEDs to incandescent, fluorescent, compact fluorescent, and metal halide lights in terms of energy efficiency, lifespan, environmental impact, light quality, and other factors. Specification sheets and their proper use in recommending LEDs are also covered.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
