E
v
is the maximum value of vertical illuminance on properties.
I is the light intensity of each source in the potentially obtrusive direction.
ULR is the proportion of the flux of the luminaire(s) that is emitted above the horizontal when the
luminaire(s) is (are) installed.
Note: Lower values may apply in relation with Light on properties and Luminaire intensity where
curfews are implemented.
