12.5 Lighting

Lighting systems for security operations provide illumination for visual and closed-circuit television (CCTV) surveillance of boundaries, sensitive inner areas, and entry points.  When CCTV is used as part of security operations, the lighting system will be coordinated with the CCTV system.  The specific installation environment and the intended use determine lighting system requirements.  Often two or more types of lighting systems are used within a single area.  Guidance on the use of security lighting may be obtained from TM 5-811-1, Electrical Power Supply and Distribution.
