A luminaire with a visual comfort probability (VCP) rating of 90 suggests what about its glare?

  1. Most people would find it objectionable due to glare.

  2. Most people would not find it objectionable due to glare.

  3. It is designed for high-performance environments.

  4. It is intended for decorative purposes only.

The correct answer is: Most people would not find it objectionable due to glare.

A luminaire with a visual comfort probability (VCP) rating of 90 indicates that the design of the lighting minimizes glare, making it more comfortable for the majority of viewers. The VCP is a measure of how likely people are to experience discomfort due to glare when illuminated by a particular light source. A rating of 90 signifies that most individuals in the space would not find the lighting objectionable due to glare, suggesting that the luminaire is effective in creating an environment that is visually comfortable. This high rating reflects good design practices in lighting to enhance occupant satisfaction and reduce eye strain, which is particularly important in settings where people perform tasks requiring visual acuity.
