        Luminaire

        Luminaires are complete lighting units that produce, control, and distribute light.

        In addition to a light source, they consist of integral components that may include optical control devices; equipment to position, protect, and connect the light source; and components to start, operate, dim, or otherwise control and maintain their operation. Luminaires also may be equipped to receive signals from automatic or manual controls.

        Luminaires provide general or localized illumination in industrial, commercial, public, institutional, and residential applications, including indoor, outdoor, specialty, and hazardous/adverse locations.

        Through NEMA, Members advise the U.S. Department of Energy and Federal Energy Management Program on energy-efficient product recommendations for federal purchasing. ​
