Abstract
A new measure called Colour Rendering Capacity (CRC) has been developed to describe a particular aspect of colour rendering properties of light sources, that is, the maximum possible number of different surface colours obtainable under a given source. The CRC is a relative measure expressed as a dimensionless parameter between zero and unity, depending on the spectral power distribution of the source only. The CRC has been calculated for some commonly used sources and the result discussed with respect to other studies concerned with the colour rendering performance of light sources.
