I require a lighting contour plan for 4 number external downlights on a annexe building to satisfy the planning officer to enable discharge of a planning condition. I'm able to supply a CAD drawing of the building plan and elevations
the specific wording is:Lighting 6.8 Pipistrelles are one of the more light tolerant species but nevertheless, any new external lighting, if required, should be kept to a minimum in order to minimise disturbance to foraging and commuting bats and wildlife in general. Measures should include the use of lighting only where absolutely necessary utilising highly directional warm white LED lighting, an example being down spots at 2.5 m high using warm white (2700 K) 8W LED lamps, 550 lumens, 35 degree beam angle. These could be individually activated by PIR sensors on a 5 minute cut off to further reduce their impacts. These will assist in lighting only the areas where lighting is required and minimising light spill either directly or through reflected light.
