Performance Testing of Lighting Technologies
The National Lighting Product Information Program (NLPIP) provides objective test results on many lighting products. The program helps lighting professionals, contractors, designers, building managers, homeowners, and other consumers find and effectively use efficient, quality products that meet their lighting needs. With the support of government agencies, public benefit organizations, and electric utilities, NLPIP disseminates objective, accurate, timely, manufacturer-specific information about energy-efficient lighting products.
