==== Security lighting for nuclear power plants in the United States ==== For [[Nuclear power in the United States|nuclear power plants in the United States (U.S.)]], per the [[Nuclear Regulatory Commission|U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)]], [[Nuclear safety and security#Title 10 CFR Part 73 (U.S. NRC)|10 CFR Part 73]], ''[security] lighting'' is mentioned four times. The most notable mentioning contained in [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/part-73#p-73.55(i)(6) 10 CFR 73.55(i)(6) Illumination], which clearly identifies that licensees "-shall provide a '''<u>minimum [[Illumination (lighting)|illumination]] level of 0.2 [[Foot-candle|foot-candles]],</u>''' measured horizontally at ground level, in the isolation zones and appropriate exterior areas within the protected area-". [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-I/part-73#p-73.55(i)(6) <sup><nowiki>[Ref]</nowiki></sup>] This is also the minimum illumination level specified in [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-I/part-73/appendix-Appendix%20H%20to%20Part%2073 Table Hβ2 Minimum Night Firing Criteria of 10 CFR 73 Appendix H], for night firing. Per [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/part-73#p-73.46(b)(7) 10 CFR 73.46(b)(7)] "-Tactical Response Team members, armed response personnel, and guards shall qualify and requalify, at least every 12 months, for day and '''night''' '''firing''' with assigned weapons in accordance with Appendix H-"; therefore on said respective [[shooting range]] '''[at night]''' per [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-I/part-73/appendix-Appendix%20H%20to%20Part%2073 Appendix H, Table H-2], "-all courses [shall have] 0.2 '''<u>[[Foot-candle|foot-candles]]</u>''' at center mass of target area-" applicable to [[Handgun|handguns]], [[Shotgun|shotguns]], and [[Rifle|rifles.]] [https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-I/part-73/appendix-Appendix%20H%20to%20Part%2073 <sup><nowiki>[Ref]</nowiki></sup>] 1 [[foot-candle]] is approximately 10.76 [[lux]], therefore the minimum illumination requirements for the above sections also reflect '''<u>2.152 [[lux]]</u>'''.
