CORRELATED COLOUR TEMPERATURE (CCT)
WHAT IS CORRELATED COLOUR TEMPERATURE
CCT stands for Correlated Color Temperature (often shortened to Color Temperature). It determines the color, not the brightness of the light source, and is measured in Kelvins (K) rather than degrees Kelvin (°K). Each white light has its own color, falling somewhere on the spectrum from amber to blue. Low CCT is on the yellow end of the color spectrum, while high CCT is on the bluish white end of the spectrum.

WHICH CCT IS BEST
Colour temperature determines the colour appearance of white LEDs. CCT is defined in Kelvin; Warm light is around 2700K, becoming neutral white around 4000K and cool white at 5000K or higher. Note that CCT cannot tell you the colour rendering capabilities of an LED.
The colour temperature of a LED light tells us how the light looks and feels. It is measured in degrees Kelvin (K) and ranges from 1,000 to 10,000. For commercial and residential lighting applications, it typically ranges from 2000K to 6500K. Knowing the temperature in Kelvin (K) will help you choose the lighting that will give you the effect and the mood you want.

COMMON COLOUR TEMPERATURES AND ESTIMATES K. VALUE
We know that colour temperature must be specified in the Kelvin (K) temperature scale. Because it specify colour temperatures and this is an accurate way to judge colour temperature.
