Abstract:
1. A lighting control device for controlling a turn-on state and a turn-off state of a lighting apparatus provided in a room in which an air-conditioning apparatus is provided, the lighting control device comprising: temperature sensing means that is provided in the air-conditioning apparatus and senses temperature of the room to allow the air-conditioning apparatus to perform air-conditioning control such that the temperature of the room sensed by the temperature sensing means lies within a preset temperature range; temperature acquisition means that acquires, as a sensed temperature, the temperature sensed by the temperature sensing means; determination means for determining that a switching condition for switching the lighting apparatus between a turn-on state and a turn-off state has been met, when the sensed temperature acquired by temperature acquisition means coincides, within a preset tolerance range, with a criterion temperature which is set separately from the preset temperature range on the basis of a body temperature of a person; and switching means for switching the lighting apparatus between the turn-on state and the turn-off state, when the determination means determines that the switching condition has been met.
