照明设计意图应在整个施工过程中进行监控，尤其是在最终安装过程中。正确的灯具、光源、驱动器、镇流器和控制装置应正确安装，并按照用户接受和业主满意的标准执行？这是运营需要。调试描述了为实现建筑物及其系统（包括照明）的这一目标而进行的过程。这是一个质量保证过程，用于验证建筑物及其安装的系统在最初和整个建筑物寿命期间是否满足业主和设计师的性能标准。 本文件由照明工程学会与照明控制协会联合编制，描述了调试照明和控制系统的技术要求，以在新施工中达到业主的性能标准。本文件未具体说明重新调试，或将调试过程应用于之前未调试过的现有设施，尽管可以应用相同的基本过程。

The lighting design intent should be monitored throughout the entire construction process, particularly in the final installation. The correct luminaires, light sources, drivers, ballasts, and controls should be properly installed and perform according to criteria that achieve user acceptance and satisfy the owner?s operational needs. Commissioning describes a process undertaken to achieve this goal for buildings and their systems, including lighting. It is a quality assurance process used to verify that buildings and their installed systems satisfy owner and designer performance criteria initially and throughout the life of the building. This document, developed by the Illuminating Engineering Society in association with the Lighting Controls Association, describes the technical requirements for commissioning lighting and control systems to achieve owner performance criteria in new construction. Retro-commissioning, or application of the commissioning process to an existing facility that has not previously been commissioned, is not specifically addressed in this document, although the same basic process can be applied.
