本文件旨在帮助设计专业人士指定或理解性能照明和控制系统的要求。剧院和礼拜场所的公共集会空间有许多相似的照明要求，但仍然不同。本文件考虑了为现场表演提供一个成功、有效的空间所涉及的因素。作为对这些主题之前文件的全面审查和修订，本文件包含了与当代剧场和礼拜建筑、房屋和舞台区域的照明位置、典型的照明仪器和布局、照明对机械和声学元件的影响相关的最新设计和应用信息，以及用于活动和演示的照明控制装置。 在本文件中，术语“剧院”指现场表演的场所，包括所有必要的辅助设施。剧院可以在演讲厅、音乐厅、教堂、平台、电影放映厅、部分餐厅和运动场等设施中找到。

This document was developed to assist design professionals in specifying or understanding the requirements of performance lighting and control systems. The public assembly spaces in theaters and worship spaces share many similar lighting requirements and yet remain different. This document considers the factors involved in achieving a successful, functioning space for live performances. As a complete review and revision of prior documents on these topics, this document incorporates the latest design and application information associated with contemporary theatrical and worship architecture, lighting positions in both the house and stage areas, typical lighting instruments and layouts, the effects of lighting on mechanical and acoustical elements, and the lighting controls used for activities and presentations. In this document, the term "theater" means a space to present live performances, including all necessary ancillary facilities. Theaters may be found in facilities such as lecture and concert halls, churches, platforms, motion picture houses, portions of restaurants, and sports arenas.
