If we replace these lights for 50 Inset Kit LED, the consump- tion drops to 650 W / h, 5.694kw/year, which represents a direct saving of 2,250 euros per year, not to mention improving of the environment in that area. Other very simple solutions that can be implemented quickly and produce significant savings are replacing compact fluorescent lamps by LED technology in the corridors with presence detector, since the constant on and off, shorten the life of compact fluorescent lamps and the equipment. The same happens in the rooms and toilets with compact fluo- rescent and halogens, which has a high consumption and damages, and are per- fectly replaceable with 13 W LED Down- lights with IP65 versions for bathrooms. New changes in legislation ERP - DIM1/DIM2 Up to today, when choosing the lamps, the consumers had no way of knowing if the data contained in them were true. Luckily, as of now, thanks to the flow and consumption regulations and a mandatory more accurate energy labe- ling, consumers and lamps installers can compare different manufacturers with the same criteria. This will also gua- rantee that the lamps meet the quality standards of the European Union and that the advantages of LED technology are met. In September of 2013 takes effect Phase 5 of the regulation 244/2009, Ecodesign requirements for non-directio- nal household use lamps, DIM 1, which states that they will have to specify the minimum performance increase (life, etc.) of all types. Regarding the DIM2, the regulation 1194/2012, Ecodesign requirements for directional lamps, LED lights, forces a gradual withdrawal of low voltage lamps when they are equal to or less than 450 lm with an energy efficiency index (EEI ) greater than 1.2, and if it has more than 450 lm with an EEI under 0.95 and 2,000 hours of life. Halogen bulbs direct to grid connection will be withdrawn if they have less than 450 lm, the EEI is less than 1.75 and less than 1,000 hours of life. Incandescent reflector lamps shall be removed when they have less than 2,000 hours of life, and if they have more than 450 lm and the IEE is less than 1.75. Finally, the LED reflector, HID and CFLi, when the EEI is greater than 0.5. In addition, the Technical Building Code, Section H3, clearly regulates the energy efficiency of lighting facilities of the hotels where it is stated that the common areas (areas used by any person or user, such as hallways, lob- bies, corridors, stairwells, people transit spaces, public toilets, etc.) the value of energy efficiency of the installation VEEI (W/m2) per 100 lux, can not exceed 4 W/m2, and the rooms 10 W/m2. It also regulates the building installed capacity can not exceed 18 W/m2 in restaurants and 12 W/m2 in public housing. It is also important to note that the Eu- ropean Union Regulation 1194/2012 of the Commission, which comes into force on September 1, 2013, unifies the crite- ria on performance cones of LED lamps. Thus, the reference lumen equivalence relations are the same for all manufac- turers and the consumer will know that ifhebuysalamp35WLEDPAR20at 90 ° it gives 200 lm.; thereby improving transparency and accurate information to the consumer. ■
