The objective of this study is to evaluate the electric lighting energy consumption carried out by Daysim program. A comparison between the measurement and simulated exterior global horizontal illuminance shows differences about 10% and it is very similar to the measurement. The interior illuminance simulated by Daysim are 18.9% lower than the measurement and simulated lighting energy consumption is 10% lower than the measurement. Corrected annual lighting energy simulation results show that the best case is the combination of occupancy switch-off and dimming system with automatic controlled blinds (E-3). In case of no blinds, it occasionally derives the minimum lighting energy consumption but it causes the glare, so we need to be careful for choosing the control strategy. For the overcast sky, the lighting energy consumption is not changed significantly by control strategy while the lighting energy in the clear sky is changed noticeably. So we must know the right strategy for each case to control the electric lights and blinds.

In this paper, we studied dc leakage current properties analysis of LED lamps of road and landscape lighting when leakage current appeared in dc power line. Generally, converter of LED lighting is divides to insulated type and non-insulated type according to components. When electric leakage happened in AC power line, earth leakage breaker(ELB) senses leakage current and interrupts electric circuit. In dc power source, We need experimental verification about dc electric leakage for electricity safety. In normal wiring conditions and in the water, in case of using insulated type of converter, dc leakage current did not occur. However, in case of using non-insulated type of converter, dc leakage current occurred and passed through into the ground. We found that there is a hazard of electric shock by dc leakage current. We expect that the results of these studies would be helpful for electrical safety of LED lamps for road and landscape lighting.

The office is an excellent candidate for implementing daylighting techniques because of the relatively high electric lighting power densities and long daytime use pattern. The quantity of light available for a space can be translated in term of the amount of energy savings through a process of a building energy simulation. To get significant energy savings in general illumination, the electric lighting system must be incorporated with a daylight - activated dimmer control. A prototype configuration of an office interior has been established and the integration between the building envelope and lighting and HVAC systems is evaluated based on computer modeling of a lighting control facility. First of all, an energy-efficient luminaire system is designed for both a totally open-plan office interior and a partitioned office. A lighting design and analysis program, Lumen-Micro 2000 predicts the optimal layout of a conventional fluorescent lighting fixture to meet the designed lighting level and calculates unit power density, which translates the demanded amount of electric lighting energy. A dimming control system integrated with the contribution of daylighting has been applied to the operating of the artificial lighting. Annual cooling load due to lighting and the projecting saving amount of cooling load due to daylighting under overcast diffuse sky are evaluated by a computer software, ENER-Win. In brief, the results from building energy simulation with measured daylight illumination levels and the performance of lighting control system indicate that daylighting can save over 70 percent of the required energy for general illumination in the perimeter zones through the year. A 25 % of electric energy for cooling may be saved by dimming and turning off the luminaires in the perimeter zones.

This research aimed to develop an leakage detector of analyzing the electric potential generated from the electric leakage of electric equipment of the fountain. To accomplish this goal, the potential gradient was analyzed against path 1 ~ path 4; this was done by taking the lighting of a fountain as the electric leakage point based on code analyses in Korea and other countries. Lighting 1 was taken as the electric leakage point, and the earthing point was set against lightings(2~3). It appeared that the allowable touch voltage against the 1 type(under 2.5 V) exceeded 60.0%. Therefore, the lighting of fountain turned out to be the most dangerous point, and electric shock could be formed by the electric leakage of electric equipment in underwater as well as by the lighting. An leakage detector was developed based on this risk; this detector is capable of analyzing the electric potential of a electric equipments of the fountain in underwater. Then, a verification test was carried out. This leakage detector can be used to measure electric potential in various submerged areas such as swimming pools, flooded spaces, and fountains.

Although the domestic electric power consumption of lighting have shared 20${\sim}$30 % of the national electric power consumption, the spread of lighting control system which can reduce the electric power consumption have been insignificant. The government have set the demonstration project and given the incentive to promote the spread of lighting control system since 2008. The M&V (Measurement and Verification) methodology for lighting control system have not been set yet in our country, but the direct measurement was suggested in US. The direct measurement methodology can increase the accuracy of measurement, but it cost much money to burden a customer. This study have suggested a new M&V methodology which cost low and is simple relatively. I had measured the amount of electric consumption through both the direct measurement and the new M&V program computation, and have analyzed the deviation. The amount of electric consumption measured by the new M&V program computation have agreed with one by the direct measurement within the error range of the instrumentation in case of lab scale test, and the 4${\sim}$8 % deviation have existed in case of field evaluation.

Recently, BIPV system which is good enough for maintenance and functions with the shading system is being used. However BIPV system with the shading system is different from existing PV module because of using flexible PV module. Prior to the application of the BIPV system, the clearness index was calculated by Erbs et al.(1982) and analyzed for the amount of electric power generation of sky irradiance with measured data. To predict electric lighting energy savings in daylit space, electric lighting power savings with amount of PV module electric power generation was compared by using Relux 2010 software in this study.

Technology for electric lighting has been evolving from Incandescent Lamp(IL) through Fluorescent Lamp(FL) and currently to Solid State Lighting(SSL) such as LED for more than 130 years of time. However, it took more than 100 years until the transition from IL to FL across overall society. That is because the transition is the Socio-Technical Transition(STT) which involves various social elements. This study investigated and analyzed the theories regarding STT, and applied the Multi-Level Perspective(MLP) theory to the case of electric lighting. A qualitative contents analysis was used with secondary data as research method, and the analyzed result was visualized based on the frame of MLP theory. The STT of electric lighting from IL to FL took place as the order of Technical Niche, Socio-Technical Regime and Landscape. Specifically, in Technical Niche level: Establishing Market Niche, Price-Performance Improvement, Learning Process and Support of Powerful Group took place. In Socio-Technical Regime level: Changes in Social Network, Changes in Technology and Changes in Rules. In Landscape level: Macro-Political Development, Socio-Economic Trends and Macro-Economic Trends took place in consecutive order.

Optical analysis is necessary to optimize light emitting diode (LED) safety street lighting. In this study, optical analysis was conducted for 100 W LED safety street lighting. Experimental research on such a single LED was the first undertaken. Simulation modeling based on the optical properties of the single LED has compared between average road illuminances and has them analyzed with Korean Industrial Standards for LED safety street lighting (KS C7658:2009). The simulation results demonstrated that the illumination performance (average road illuminance) was 75.3 lx at a height of 4 m and an area of $32\;m^2$, 45.25 lx at a height of 5 m and an area of $72\;m^2$, and 30.05 lx at a height of 6 m and an area of $128\;m^2$. 100 W safety street lighting (model CE180-ST-OS) designed by simulation was also compared between product and 100 W simulation modeling, and error rates averaged 5.6%. The 100 W LED safety street lighting base designed in simulation modeling was proven by comparison experiments. Through the simulations and the corresponding analysis, it was found that the tested 100 W LED safety street lamp had reasonable performance. The design method for LED safety street lamps has been summarized based on the optical analysis.

In this paper, we propose a sensor-based LED lighting system that can significantly reduce standby powers. The proposed LED lighting system has the more advanced power circuit and control mechanism compared to existing one. The whole power circuit consists of two subcircuits. One is designed to apply electric powers to controller, PIR(Pyroelectric Infrared Ray) sensor and CdS, and the other one is designed to apply electric powers to LED module. Such a power circuit configuration makes the standby powers reduction of LED lighting system possible. From the experimental results, we confirmed that the standby powers saving performance of the developed power circuit is superior to that of the conventional one.
