IMPROVES OVERALL AESTHETICS
Fixtures that deliver volumetric light typically create ceilings cluttered with distracting spots of bright light. Often fixtures that provide a quiet ceiling produce a cave effect that makes the room feel closed-in and unattractive. RT5TM lighting solves both problems and gives you volumetric lighting with a quiet ceiling. With the RT5, you will discover how beautiful fluorescent lighting can be.
"The lighting produces a very natural feel that shows colors and textures extremely well without glare or shadows. This contributes to an extraordinary experience for our customers and enables our employees to complete each transaction in a time-efficient and accurate manner." --Ginger Equi, Manager, Belk

A FEELING OF SPACIOUSNESS
The unique optical design of the RT5 fixture allows it to distribute light uniformly onto room and cubicle walls, from the bottom nearly to the top, eliminating the cave effect common with parabolics. This even illumination opens up the room, making it feel brighter and more spacious.
"Once RT5 was tested, we were immediately sold on the fixture's performance and, just as importantly, its aesthetics. We embraced performance-focused lighting and design as a key strategic business initiative and as a forum that could enhance optimal job performance." ­Rob Byers, Architect, Gensler

QUIET, PLEASE
With its recessed refractor, high-angle control and balanced fixtureto-ceiling luminance ratio, the RT5TM luminaire produces a quiet ceiling that is not dominated by bright openings. The design also creates the perception of higher light levels. No other luminaire that produces volumetric light has been able to deliver a quiet ceiling.
"The new lighting system creates a better and more enjoyable environment for both the students and faculty by reducing glare on computers and reading/instruction areas. Plus, the fixture is pleasing to the eye without drawing attention to the ceiling." ­Ann Whitley, Media Specialist, Winnona Park Elementary School

A COMPLEMENT TO ANY SPACE
The sleek, textured lines of the reflectors and refractor. The elegant curves--a perfect intersection of two quarter-circles. The tilted end plates adding a visual depth unique in fluorescent lighting. All of these things make RT5 a graceful fixture that will enhance the ambiance of any room without drawing attention to the luminaire.
"After an extensive search for the perfect lighting application, the RT5 fixture was selected because of its sleek design and ability to deliver the ideal amount of light to walls, cubicles, work surfaces and people." ­John Preece, Principal, MDI Architects

OVERCOMING THE PROBLEM OF PARABOLICS
The main shortcoming of parabolic lighting is that it delivers light primarily to the workplane and avoids sending light into the "volumetric zone." The light is harshly concentrated in some areas, while much of the volume of the space is left in the dark. RT5 fixtures deliver and control light in the "volumetric zone," eliminating the problems associated with parabolics.
"RT5 represents one of the only lighting products that is perfectly suited for both direct and indirect lighting. In the past, we've had to use parabolics in the office setting and acrylics in the clinical setting. Now, RT5 allows us to use the same fixture in both paradigms, providing a more consistent and visually pleasing lighting solution across the board." ­John Preece, Principal, MDI Architects

energy savings

REDUCES ENERGY CONSUMPTION
Not only does RT5TM volumetric lighting enhance an indoor environment, but it also is designed to be good to the natural environment. Compared to a standard 18-cell, three-lamp T8 parabolic, the RT5 fixture provides up to 33% energy savings. It also helps to exceed stringent energy regulations, such as California's Title 24, ASHRAE 90.1 and IECC. The fixture's high efficiency is due to an optimized combination of well designed components--from the highly reflective paint and patent-pending refractor, to the innovative lamp and ballast.

AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO LUMINAIRE OPTICS
Producing the right amount of light at high angles while avoiding glare is critical to the success of volumetric lighting. Careful attention must be paid to the distribution of brightness over the luminaire aperture. The RT5 fixture achieves its simple and pleasing appearance by exhibiting brightness over the entire aperture. The two-piece refractor system uses a combination of diffusing film and precisely extruded prisms to efficiently diffuse light, thereby achieving the proper balance. The result is a low-brightness refractor that illuminates and complements the highly reflective barrel, provides outstanding lamp obscuration, and creates a smooth distribution at all angles and distances.

ADVANCED LAMP TECHNOLOGY
To give the RT5 luminaire greater efficacy than a standard T5 or T8 lamp, our designers led the development of the most advanced T5 lamp technology. This cutting-edge lamp provides the highest T5 efficacy in the industry. Plus, the fixture is designed to keep the T5 at its optimal operating temperature for maximum efficacy. The lamp passes the Federal TCLP (Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure) test for classification as non-hazardous waste, though recycling of lamps is always recommended.

FRIENDLY TO THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
RT5 volumetric lighting was specifically engineered to meet the needs of sustainable design. The result may be the most environmentally friendly lay-in fixture ever developed. The T5 lamp offers exceptional performance in a smaller package, thereby requiring fewer natural resources, such as glass and phosphors, to produce. The combination of this lamp with the innovative luminaire design created a shallow fixture that utilizes less steel to produce and contains less embedded energy. In addition, the optical design of the fixture optimizes the performance of the lamp and ballast system to deliver the appropriate amount of volumetric light throughout the workspace while consuming up to 33% less energy than the most popular alternative. RT5 volumetric lighting truly enhances both the working environment and the natural environment, making it an ideal choice to use when addressing the needs of sustainable design.

VOLUMETRIC LIGHTING AND RT5
By: Kevin Leadford, Principal Engineer, Lithonia Lighting An age-old problem in electric lighting concerns the management of light in the so-called "glare zone". This generally refers to light exiting a luminaire at vertical angles between roughly 50 and 90 degrees above nadir (Figure 1). Glare hinders visibility and is a known source of discomfort. It is therefore a primary consideration in luminaire design. However, it is also well understood that light emitted into this zone can have very positive effects on the perception of an architectural space and the rendering of its contents and occupants. RT5TM luminaire balances these two concepts with specific regard to the modern office environment. The "Glare Zone" Revisited The visual system is most sensitive to glare when the light source is directly in the center of the line of sight, and this sensitivity diminishes as the light source is moved away from that line of sight toward the periphery. Assuming a horizontal gaze, this implies that luminaire brightness must be more strictly controlled in directions approaching horizontal. A similar argument can be made relative to reflected images of lighting equipment in computer video displays, although recent advances in display technology have all but eliminated this once crucial consideration. Today's computer displays utilize a much larger radius of curvature, and flat screens are becoming more and more prevalent with time. At typical orientations and viewing positions, this reduces the reflected field of view such that only very distant portions of the ceiling are visible. Anti-reflectance technologies are routinely incorporated, and screen brightness also has been significantly improved. But most importantly, software developers have overwhelmingly chosen to present information in positive contrast (dark characters on light background). While certain niche applications may still require special attention, the collective impact of these advancements has substantially mediated the problem at large. Lamp shielding has long provided an effective means for achieving light control relative to glare. When comprised of highly reflective material, the shielding additionally can be used to intercept light that otherwise would be emitted near the horizontal, and to redirect that light downward through the principles of specular (mirror-like) reflection (Figure 2). The result is both effective and efficient. Figure 2 Figure 1

VOLUMETRIC LIGHTING AND RT5
One potential problem with this approach is that the luminance of the reflected image of the lamp typically is very near that of the lamp itself. Thus, great care must be taken to control the manner in which the reflector "flashes" the lamp image. The glare potential is high, and so is the tendency for this flash to attract attention as a result of its dynamic nature relative to occupant movement within the space. Another characteristic of this control method is that it tends to produce relatively sharp cutoff. In fact, sharp cutoff often has been considered a key performance attribute for various lighting products. The sharper the cutoff, the stricter the light control in the glare zone. Although highly effective in certain applications, sharp cutoff also can be problematic. In most cases, the photometric distribution tends to be so downwardly concentrated that it results in highly directional illumination. While the illumination may be extremely uniform over a relatively low horizontal task plane, the upper regions of the space are quite the opposite. The modeling of three-dimensional objects can be harsh, the uniformity of illumination at higher elevations is poor, and vertical surfaces tend to be rendered with abrupt scallops, resulting in something commonly referred to as the "cave effect" (Figure 3). Volumetric Lighting, What and Why The term "volumetric lighting" simply refers to lighting that is less directional and more uniform throughout the entire volume of a space (Figures 4a and 4b). Volumetric lighting extends beyond the work plane to adequately illuminate the entirety of the interior, resulting in a better balance of luminance throughout the visual field. The space feels brighter, larger, more public, and more relaxing. Facial rendering is more natural, consistent, and complimentary. Shadows tend to be softer and less pronounced, and the appearance of the space is less defined by sharp, arbitrary transitions in surface brightness. Volumetric lighting does a better job of rendering architecture, its contents, and its occupants true to form. The attributes of volumetric lighting are well understood and appreciated, as evidenced by the popularity of indirect and direct/indirect suspended lighting. In this case, the ceiling is essentially transformed into a light source. Figure 4b Figure 4a Figure 3

VOLUMETRIC LIGHTING AND RT5
Suspended lighting is good, but it becomes less effective as the suspension length is reduced, and many applications do not afford the luxury of high ceilings. Additionally, suspended lighting tends to make a definitive architectural statement that is not appropriate for all applications. The need exists for a highly efficient recessed luminaire capable of providing quality volumetric lighting. However, volumetric lighting is dependent upon high angle illumination, and this becomes a challenge in terms of glare management. As mentioned previously, specular optics directly image the extreme brightness of the lamp. The solution lies in recognizing that luminous intensity is the product of luminance and area. For a given intensity value, the brightness of the luminaire can be reduced if the area from which that brightness emanates can be increased in size. This is another way of saying that the solution is to create a luminaire whose brightness is relatively uniformly distributed over the entire luminaire aperture, and this implies that diffusing optics, rather than specular, must be employed. RT5 Optics The challenge with diffusing optical systems is that they tend to be inefficient. Light often is reflected multiple times before exiting the luminaire, and this drives luminaire efficiency down. Materials exhibiting extremely high reflectance (98%+) are available, but incorporating them would constitute a material dependency that may or may not be appropriate for lighting equipment. Performance over time is a concern, and a relatively small amount of dust or other contaminants can have a powerfully detrimental impact on such systems. RT5 represents a breakthrough in luminaire optical design because it is an effective light diffusing system that also happens to be very efficient. It achieves its performance and control by carefully combining elements of light diffusion, shielding, and Fresnel reflection. The primary purpose of the refractor is to efficiently and uniformly diffuse the extreme brightness of the T5 lamp over its entire surface while illuminating the adjacent reflector. The size of the refractor allows for greatly reduced maximum luminance, which strongly decreases the glare potential in direct view. The refractor achieves its abnormally high efficiency by employing a two-stage strategy. An upper diffusing layer gently softens the lamp image, while the prism geometry of the lower refractor acts to distribute brightness evenly in the across-lamp dimension (Figure 5). The reflector uses highly reflective diffuse paint to ease the luminous transition from the refractor to the ceiling by distributing brightness across the entire luminaire aperture.

VOLUMETRIC LIGHTING AND RT5
This further reduces the potential for glare while providing the soft, high-angle brightness that is critical to volumetric lighting. This approach additionally results in a luminaire whose appearance is static with respect to occupant movement, thereby reducing its ability to distract or command attention. Although relatively low in brightness, the refractor still may be too bright for direct view at angles very near horizontal in the across-lamp dimension. Remember that in this dimension, the prisms are designed to distribute light broadly. This is what gives rise to the use of shielding in that plane, albeit minimal. In the along-lamp dimension, the refractor uses the principle of Fresnel reflection to control high-angle brightness. When light enters or leaves a refractive material in air, some of the light is transmitted while some is reflected (Figure 6). The proportion that is either reflected or transmitted is dependent upon the incidence angle. At angles perpendicular to the refractive surface, most of the light is transmitted; at grazing angles, most of the light is reflected. Figure 7 plots Fresnel reflection for acrylic as a function of incidence angle. Through proper choice of refractor geometry, this phenomenon can be used to control high-angle brightness in the along-lamp dimension. The result is a refractor that naturally and smoothly becomes less luminous with increasing vertical angle. While deceptively simple in appearance, RT5 represents a significant advancement in lighting. It saves energy while providing high quality volumetric lighting in a recessed configuration.

Figure 1. Parabolic Light Distribution

Parabolics are designed to direct light into the cut-off zone, while restricting light into the shielded or glare zone. In other words, parabolics deliver light to the work plane and suppress high-angle brightness. Due to the high-angle cutoffs as shown in Figure 1. parabolics can create areas where light is concentrated and areas where there is no light. These areas of minimum light are referred to as "dark spots".

Financial Review
COOPER STOCK PERFORMANCE
The following graph compares the total shareholder return on Cooper's Class A common shares for the five-year period December 31, 2001 through December 31, 2006 to the total returns for the same period of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and a Cooper Peer Group Index. The cumulative total return is based upon an initial investment of $100 on December 31, 2001 with dividends reinvested. We currently operate in two primary business areas: Electrical Products and Tools. The 15 companies in the Cooper Peer Group Index were selected based on their presence in similar markets affected by similar economic and market trends to Cooper, their recognition by the investment community as Cooper peers and the comparability of their market capitalization to Cooper's market capitalization. The members of the Cooper Peer Group Index are: Acuity Brands, Inc.; Danaher Corporation; Dover Corp.; Eaton Corp.; Emerson Electric Co.; Hubbell Incorporated (Class B); Illinois Tool Works; Ingersoll-Rand Co. Ltd.; Newell Rubbermaid Inc.; Parker-Hannifin Corp.; Pentair Inc.; Snap-On Inc.; SPX Corp.; The Stanley Works; and Thomas & Betts Corporation. The Cooper Peer Group Index has been weighted in accordance with each corporation's market capitalization (closing stock price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding) as of the beginning of each of the five years covered by the performance graph. The weighted return for each year is the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the percentage that each corporation's market capitalization represents of the total market capitalization for all corporations in the Index for such year by (b) the total shareholder return for that corporation for such year.
