Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Benefits of Creating a Hazardous Area Lighting Plan?
A proper lighting plan removes the risks of blind light purchases and ensures compliance with hazardous area safety standards. We eliminate guesswork by figuring out what explosion-proof fixture is the best choice by calculating exactly how many lumens your fixtures need and determining the correct beam angles and optics for your space. Without this analysis, you risk installing lighting that’s too bright, too dim, or creates dangerous shadows and dark spots. We create these lighting plans free for commercial and industrial customers, resolving all issues in software before any money is spent.

What Is the Best Way to Start Designing a Hazardous Area Lighting Plan?
Start with either a scaled floor plan or area dimensions if it’s a large open space. We also need your fixture mounting height and desired light levels measured in foot candles. If you don’t know the required light levels, simply tell us how the space will be used, and we’ll recommend the proper levels based on industry standards. With this information, we create your initial plan and then adjust and refine it until we achieve your exact lighting requirements.
How Do I Plan the Lighting Layout for a Hazardous Area?
You don’t need to plan it yourself – our free lighting plan service handles the complex calculations. We need your building dimensions, required light levels, current fixture details, and input voltage. Our lighting plans calculate the total number of fixtures needed, their optimal placement locations, average foot candles throughout the area, and how evenly balanced the light distribution will be across your entire space.

How Do You Choose the Right Hazardous Location LED Light Fixtures?
Selecting compliant hazardous location fixtures requires understanding your specific hazard classification and environmental conditions. We analyze your space requirements, safety ratings needed, and performance specifications to recommend fixtures that provide proper illumination while meeting all safety codes. Contact us today, and we’ll help you choose the right hazardous location lighting fixtures for your specific application.
What Software Do You Use to Create a Hazardous Area Lighting Plan?
We use AGI32, the industry-leading professional lighting design software trusted by engineers and lighting designers worldwide.

What Will the Lighting Plan Show Me?
The plan provides a visual representation of foot candles across your floor area and calculates light balance using the average-to-minimum foot candle ratio. You’ll see exactly where bright and dim areas occur, ensuring uniform lighting distribution throughout your hazardous location.
How Much Does a Professional Lighting Plan Cost?
We provide professional lighting plans at no cost for our commercial and industrial customers. This comprehensive service includes initial design, revisions based on your feedback, and detailed photometric analysis – all free when you’re considering our hazardous location fixtures.
How Long Does It Take to Complete a Hazardous Area Lighting Plan?
Most lighting plans are completed within 2-3 business days after we receive your space dimensions and requirements. Complex projects with multiple areas or special requirements may take up to one week. We’ll provide a timeline estimate when you submit your project details.
Can You Modify My Lighting Plan After It’s Complete?
Yes, we offer unlimited revisions to ensure your lighting plan meets your exact needs. Whether you need to adjust fixture locations, change light levels, or accommodate layout changes, we’ll modify your plan at no additional cost until you’re completely satisfied with the design.

What Information Do I Need to Provide for a Lighting Plan?
Provide your space dimensions or floor plan, mounting height for fixtures, desired foot candle levels, and how the space will be used. Include details about any hazardous classification requirements and existing lighting if this is a retrofit project. The more detail you provide, the more accurate and useful your lighting plan will be.
