Sports hall
Training, matches and cleaning draw completely different power. The difference between the levels shows up straight away on the electricity bill.
Sports lighting has its own standard (SS-EN 12193) and its own levels per level of ambition. Running the hall at competition level during a school PE class is the most common and most expensive habit in a sports hall.
The loads are large, so groups are switched with relays rather than individual drivers. Changing rooms and walkways belong to the same installation but follow SS-EN 12464-1, and should run on presence.
Training, match and cleaning as separate modes instead of a single switch.
Entire luminaire groups switch on and off without a contactor cabinet.
The luminaire has to take the hit, and the player has to follow the ball upwards.

Target values per SS-EN 12193 (sports lighting). The values are a starting point for the conversation, not a lighting design. The client's own requirements, the geometry of the room and its surfaces decide the outcome.
