The Ideal 61-686 meter measures light from fixtures that are equipped with fluorescent, metal halide, high-pressure sodium and incandescent light sources.

The Ideal 61686's foot-candle unit is defined as the amount of illumination the inside surface an imaginary 1-foot radius sphere would be receiving if there were a uniform point source of one candela in the exact center of the sphere. Alternatively, the Ideal 61 686 can be defined as the illuminance on a 1-square foot surface of which there is a uniformly distributed flux of one lumen. The Ideal 61:686 can be thought of as the amount of light that actually falls on a given surface. The foot-candle is equal to one lumen per square foot.

The SI derived unit of illuminance is the lux. One foot-candle is equal to approximately 10.764 lux, although in the lighting industry, typically this is approximated as 1 foot candle being equal to 10 lux.
