What Is This Tool?
This tool converts illumination measurements from nox, a unit specialized for near-dark light levels, into candela steradian per square meter, a conventional unit equivalent to lux used widely in lighting engineering.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the illuminance value in nox you wish to convert.
- Select 'nox' as the source unit and 'candela steradian/sq. meter' as the target unit.
- Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in candela steradian/sq. meter.
Key Features
- Converts very low illuminance values from nox to candela steradian/sq. meter.
- Provides a straightforward interface for fast unit translation.
- Helpful for lighting design, astronomy, and environmental applications.
- Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required.
Examples
- 5 nox converts to 0.005 candela steradian/sq. meter.
- 100 nox converts to 0.1 candela steradian/sq. meter.
Common Use Cases
- Describing natural night illumination like moonlight or starlight in astronomy.
- Planning exterior lighting with consideration for dark-sky environments.
- Testing low-light conditions in optical sensor calibration.
- Designing indoor and outdoor lighting based on standardized photometric units.
- Calibrating light meters used in photography and instrument measurements.
Tips & Best Practices
- Use this tool primarily for low-illuminance scenarios as nox is designed for near-dark conditions.

Limitations
- Accuracy may be affected when measuring extremely low light levels.
- Not suitable for converting high-intensity illumination values.
- Applies mainly to scenarios involving very low illuminance.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the unit nox measure?
- Nox is a specialized unit that quantifies very low illuminance levels, typically encountered in near-dark conditions such as moonlight or starlight.
- How is candela steradian per square meter related to lux?
- Candela steradian per square meter is numerically equivalent to lux, measuring luminous flux incident per unit area.
- Why convert from nox to candela steradian/sq. meter?
- Converting to candela steradian per square meter translates low-level illuminance into a standard photometric unit useful for lighting design and measurement.
Key Terminology
- Nox
- A historical unit measuring very low illuminance, equal to 0.001 lux, used in near-dark or night-time lighting contexts.
- Candela steradian per square meter (cd·sr·m⁻²)
- A unit of illuminance equivalent to lux, measuring luminous flux incident on a surface per unit area.
- Illuminance
- The amount of luminous flux falling on a surface per unit area, commonly measured in lux or equivalent units.
