How to use a goniophotometer to measure LED light according to EN13032-1?

Photometric performance of LED (Light Emitting Diode) modules used in general lighting applications is outlined in EN 13032-1 , a European standard. For LED modules that will be part of a larger lighting system, this standard establishes the bare minimum in terms of photometric performance. This includes standards for luminous flux, luminous intensity distribution, chromaticity, and color rendering. The goniophotometer, a device used to measure the angular distribution of light produced by a light source, is one of the test techniques and measurement processes required by the standard to assess the photometric performance of LED modules. EN 13032-1's goal is to standardize the process of measuring and reporting the photometric performance of LED modules used in general lighting applications. The standard aids in making sure that LED lighting systems achieve the expected performance and quality and gives customers the data they need to make educated purchases. To determine an LE
