A municipal road lighting upgrade project in Ajman, United Arab Emirates was carried out to modernize the existing roadway lighting system and improve energy efficiency through LED lighting and intelligent control.
For this project, LIKELITE supplied 2,000 sets of 80W LED Street Lights. The project specification included ECAS, EESL, QCC and TRA compliance requirements, together with IP66 protection, 10KV surge protection and Lumileds SMD2835 LED technology.
The lighting system also incorporated Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control, allowing the roadway lighting operation to respond to movement, ambient light conditions and programmed operating schedules.
The project specification reported an estimated 20% energy-saving improvement following the lighting upgrade.
The equipment and engineering services were configured around the municipal roadway application and the project's electrical, lighting and control requirements.
LED Street Light Configuration
The selected street light uses an 80W LED configuration with Lumileds SMD2835 LED light sources.
The specified lamp luminous efficiency is 150 lm/W, corresponding to a nominal theoretical light output of approximately 12,000 lumens per 80W luminaire before application-level optical and system considerations.
The luminaire uses an aluminum-alloy body with ALU+PC material construction.
Key product parameters include:
Rated Power: 80W
Input Voltage: AC 220–240V ±10%
LED Source: Lumileds SMD2835
Efficiency: 150 lm/W

CCT: 5000K ±300K
CRI: Ra 80
IP Rating: IP66
Surge Protection: 10KV
Voltage Resistance: 1.5KV
Housing: Aluminum alloy
Material: ALU + PC
Power Supply: AC
Frequency: 50Hz
Lifespan: 30,000 hours
Operating Temperature: -20°C to +45°C
Smart Municipal Lighting Control
One of the key elements of this project was the integration of three lighting-control functions:
Microwave Motion Sensor
The motion sensor can detect movement within the configured sensing area and support lighting operation based on roadway activity.
Light Control
Light-control functionality allows the system to respond to ambient lighting conditions and operate according to the required daylight/night-time conditions.
Timer Control
Timer control allows the lighting operating schedule to be configured according to the project's required operating periods.
The three functions can be coordinated as part of the municipal lighting control configuration.
For final deployment, sensor sensitivity, detection range, dimming levels and timer schedules should be confirmed according to actual site conditions and the approved control strategy.
Lighting Design and Engineering Service
The Ajman project included engineering-oriented lighting design support.
The service scope included:
Onsite Metering
Existing roadway lighting conditions can be measured to establish project-specific design information before the upgrade.
DIALux Evo Layout
DIALux Evo can be used to develop the roadway lighting layout and evaluate illumination performance.
LitePro DLX Layout
LitePro DLX provides an additional format for lighting layout and project coordination.
AutoCAD Layout
CAD drawings support coordination between roadway geometry, pole positions, luminaire locations and installation requirements.
AGi32 Layout
AGi32 can be used for lighting calculation and engineering review where required by the project team.
These engineering formats allow the lighting system to be reviewed against the actual municipal roadway configuration before installation.
Energy-Saving Performance
The project specification reports a 20% energy-saving improvement following the lighting upgrade.
The reported improvement is associated with the replacement of the existing lighting system with the specified 80W LED Street Lights and the use of intelligent lighting controls.
Actual project energy savings should be verified using measured electricity consumption before and after the upgrade.
The verification should consider:
Existing luminaire power
New luminaire power
Operating hours
Sensor settings
Timer schedules
Dimming strategy
Actual number of operating fixtures
This provides a more accurate basis for municipal project reporting and acceptance.
UAE Compliance and Project Documentation
The project specification included:
ECAS / EESL / QCC / TRA
For municipal lighting projects in the UAE, product compliance documentation forms part of the technical and procurement process.
The project documentation package can include:
Product datasheet
Electrical specifications
Photometric data
ECAS documentation
EESL-related documentation
QCC documentation
TRA-related documentation where applicable
Installation instructions
Warranty documentation
Control-system specifications
Documentation should always correspond to the actual products and configuration supplied to the project.
Designed for UAE Outdoor Conditions
The project luminaire was specified for outdoor municipal roadway use with an operating temperature range of -20°C to +45°C.
The equipment specification also included:
IP66 protection
10KV surge protection
1.5KV voltage resistance
Aluminum-alloy housing
30,000-hour stated lifespan
The actual operating performance and service life will depend on installation conditions, electrical quality, ambient temperature, maintenance and other site-specific factors.
Installation and Project Execution
The project involved 2,000 sets of municipal LED Street Lights and required coordinated installation.
The implementation process can include:
Existing pole and fixture inspection
Installation-position confirmation
Electrical connection
Sensor and control configuration
Luminaire installation
System commissioning
Lighting-performance verification
Control-function testing
LIKELITE's stated service scope included Project Installation.
The final installation should follow the approved project drawings, site requirements and applicable local electrical and safety regulations.
Project Logistics
The specified single-package dimensions were:
50 × 16 × 7 cm
The stated gross weight per packaged luminaire was:
7.15 kg
For 2,000 sets, project logistics should be coordinated with the installation schedule, delivery batches, warehouse requirements and municipal project timetable.
