Measurement and assessment of personal exposures to incoherent optical radiation - Part 4: Terminology and quantities used in UV-, visible and IR-exposure measurements
This standard specifies the terminology and the quantities that are used in UV-, VIS- and IR-exposure measurements according to parts 1, 2 and 3 of EN 14255.
NOTE Parts 1 and 2 were published in 2005, while part 3 is under preparation.
This standard can also be applied to the terminology and quantities used in international recommendations from, e.g. ICNIRP, CIE, etc. The purpose of this standard is to unify the definitions of quantities for optical radiation measurements since inconsistencies occur between existing publications from different origins.

EN 14255-4:2006 (E) 4 Introduction People may be exposed to adversely high levels of optical radiation (ultraviolet, visible and infrared radiation) from strong optical radiation sources in the workplace and elsewhere. In order to protect people from harm their optical radiation exposures should be determined in these cases and compared with limit values which are set by national authorities or recommended by international organisations (e.g. ICNIRP1), see [5], [6], [7], [8], [11]). Part 1 of this standard describes methods to determine ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposures in the workplace, part 2 of this standard describes methods to determine visible (VIS) and infrared (IR) radiation exposures in the workplace and part 3 of this standard describes methods to determine ultraviolet radiation exposures by the sun.
There are several quantities in which optical radiation exposures are expressed. Unfortunately some of these quantities are defined and named in different ways by different reference sources, such as standards and limit value recommendations. Additionally, some of the quantities are not always very well defined in a strong physical and mathematical sense. Hence there is a need for clarification and uniform definition of these quantities.
In this part 4 of the standard a uniform terminology for quantities is specified and the quantities are defined in a way which makes them reasonably applicable in practical use. The terminology and quantities defined may be used when parts 1, 2 and 3 of this standard are applied or when relevant standards or limit value recommendations are to be revised.
In this standard, terms which are often expressed elsewhere as summations have been reformulated and expressed mathematically as integrals. Cumbersome terms in current use, such as time integrated radiance, have been replaced by newly defined terms which clarify the relationship between, for example, radiance and radiance dose.
In order to specify and define quantities more clearly, some of the quantities have been renamed. In this standard the names of these quantities differ from the names used in other reference sources. The reason is that within the referred sources the names of these quantities are not sufficiently descriptive, e.g. "effective irradiance Eeff" and "effective radiant exposure Heff" are very general expressions (see CIE2) 17.4) but are used in some references in very specific meanings. In the definition of ICNIRP [5] "effective irradiance" is a quantity which describes the effect of UV radiation as well on the skin as on the eyes. So the quantity is mainly used for prevention purposes when it is often not known which part of the body will be exposed. So this useful quantity has a very specific meaning and it is named in this standard with the specific name "ultraviolet hazard irradiance Es". Another reason for renaming the quantity "effective irradiance" is that it is used in some applications to indicate a net effect such as the difference between incident and emitted heat radiation. In order to avoid misunderstandings the term "effective irradiance" is not used in this standard. The more specific term "ultraviolet hazard irradiance" is used instead. NOTE Terms and quantities which are not covered by this part of the standard can be found in other reference sources like CIE 17.4, CIE S 007 or CIE S 009.

3.2 Definitions NOTE Quantities for the irradiance, radiance and radiant exposure, which are calculated by using spectral weighting functions, are named in reference to the specific action spectrum in question. For any specific effect "x", if a spectral weighting function x(λ) exists, the "x-irradiance Ex" can be calculated equivalent to equation (4); e. g. the name "blue-light irradiance Eb" is used for the wavelength integral of the spectral irradiance which is spectrally weighted with the blue-light hazard weighting function b(λ). The blue-light hazard weighting function b(λ) is related to the action spectrum of the blue-light hazard of the eye. Likewise, other names of quantities which allow the assessment of a specific effect are chosen in relation to the action spectra in question. The same procedure may be applied for other spectrally weighted quantities such as radiant exposure Hx , radiance Lx , etc. 3.2.1 boundaries of a wavelength-range
