It is obvious from the shapes ofthese polar curves that the extensive type of distribution wouldbe used in rooms having low ceilings or low fixtures or where itis desirable to light a large area. The intensive distribution isused for medium and average conditions where more than onelamp or outlet are required. The focusing distribution is usedwhere the lamps are placed comparatively high above thereference plane. PRINCIPLES OF INTERIOR ILLUMINATION 265 In Fig. IGO are shown the illumination curves for one and fortwo 250-\vatt tungsten lamps equipped with extensive, intensiveand focusing types of reflectors. The details are given in thefollowing table:. Fig. 159.âCharacteristic curves Mazda 100, 150, 250-watt, 100-125-volt, bowl-frosted lam^js with focusing reflectors.

The False Ceiling.âAnother class of direct lighting consists inplacing the lamps above false ceilings of milk or opal glass,the object being to secure a well-diffused ill
