Frequently Asked Questions
- What are candle (international) [c] and decimal candle units?
- They are historical units of luminous intensity previously used before the modern candela was adopted. Candle (international) measured intensity based on a standard lamp, while decimal candle represented light from a defined candle standard.
- Why would I convert between these two obsolete units?
- Conversion helps interpret and compare lighting data from historical sources or documents, making it easier to translate older standards into familiar terms.
- Are these units still used in modern photometry?
- No, both units have been superseded by the SI candela, which is now the official standard for luminous intensity measurements.
Key Terminology
- Candle (international) [c]
- An obsolete photometric unit of luminous intensity based on a specified standard lamp used before the adoption of the candela.
- Decimal candle
- A historical unit of luminous intensity defined by the light emitted from a standardized candle, used in 19th-century photometry.
- Luminous intensity
- A measure of the wavelength-weighted power emitted by a light source in a particular direction, perceived by the human eye.
