Abstract
The use of solar radiation as source of an illumination system for workstations is proposed. For this, a system to collect solar radiation with a parabolic mirror was built. The visible portion of the spectrum of this radiation is then transmitting through a fixture of optic fiber and emitted as a punctual light in the work area. To characterize the system, operation tests with solar radiation were conducted in order to describe the behavior of the emitter by photometry tests like Candlepower distribution and cone of dispersion.
