In lighting design, the calculation of maintenance factor is performed by calculation considering light source, characteristics of luminaire and environmental factors. The method to calculate the current maintenance factor applied to tunnel lighting design takes into consideration only pollution factors in tunnels. In addition, the calculation method should be change in response to changes of tunnel conditions and used light sources. In this study, the calculated factor of the maintenance factor in tunnel is determine by four calculation factors generally applied to the calculation of maintenance factor. This study examined the method of calculating the maintenance factor of tunnel lighting that can be applied according to the installation conditions in designing tunnel lighting by applying the actual installation data of luminaire.
