The SI unit of luminous intensity is the candela.
Not directly, as you are comparing apples with oranges in two senses: (a) a lumen is an SI unit, whereas a candlepower is an Imperial unit, and (b) lumens are used to measure luminous flux, whereas candlepower is used to measure luminous intensity.
Candela measures luminous intensity, which is the amount of light emitted by a source in a particular direction. It is a unit of measure for how bright a light source appears to the human eye.
Candela measures the brightness of a light source in a specific direction, while lux measures the amount of light that falls on a surface per unit area. Candela is a measure of luminous intensity, while lux is a measure of illuminance.
The intensity of the resulting wave is the measure of its power per unit area.
Candela (symbol: cd) represents luminosity, the intensity of emitted light. It's not a metric symbol, but a photometric symbol.
The SI unit for luminous intensity is candela (cd).
The unit of luminous intensity is a candela.
In the SI the unit of luminous intensity is candela(cd).
candela--------------------------------------------The official international definition of candela (1979) is:"The candela is the luminous intensity, in a given direction, of a source that emits monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 x 10e12 hertz and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of 1/683 watt per steradian".
Luxmeter measures luminous intensity. The SI unit of luminous intensity is candela (cd).
Candela (cd) is the unit of luminous intensity of a light source in a specific direction. It is also called candle.
The SI unit of Intensity of light is CANDELA.
Not directly, as you are comparing apples with oranges in two senses: (a) a lumen is an SI unit, whereas a candlepower is an Imperial unit, and (b) lumens are used to measure luminous flux, whereas candlepower is used to measure luminous intensity.

Candela is a unit of luminous intensity while watt is a unit of power. These two are not directly convertible to each other as they measure different things.
The meter is a unit of length, the candela is a unit of luminous intensity.
Candela is the basic SI unit of luminous intensity. In other words it is a measure of how bright/intense the human eye perceives the light in a given direction.
