LIKELITE supplied a complete LED roadway lighting configuration for an urban roadway lighting upgrade project in Calgary, Canada.
The project involved the replacement and upgrade of roadway lighting using 2,000 sets of 100W LED Roadway Lights, configured for AC 110–120V / 60Hz operation and specified with CSA certification, IP66 protection and 10KV surge protection.
The project was designed around three primary requirements:
Reliable roadway illumination + reduced operating energy consumption + long-term outdoor performance
LIKELITE supported the project with product supply and roadway lighting engineering services, including onsite metering, lighting and circuitry design, photometric layout and installation support.

Project Scope
From Existing Roadway Lighting to LED Upgrade
The project was developed as an urban roadway lighting upgrade rather than a simple product replacement.
The engineering scope included:
Existing roadway lighting assessment
Onsite metering
Lighting and circuitry design
LED roadway luminaire selection
Photometric layout
Electrical layout
Installation coordination
Project installation support
The purpose was to establish an LED lighting system suitable for the project's electrical and roadway conditions while improving energy efficiency and maintaining reliable outdoor operation.
LED Roadway Lighting Configuration
100W LED Roadway Lights
The selected luminaire configuration was based on a 100W LED Roadway Light with a CREE SMD3030 LED source and a nominal luminous efficiency of 110 lm/W.
The 120° beam angle provides broad light distribution for roadway applications. Final optical performance is dependent on roadway geometry, mounting height, pole spacing, installation angle and project-specific photometric calculations.

Engineering Design Process
Site Data Before Product Finalization
Roadway lighting performance depends on the relationship between the luminaire and the existing road infrastructure.
For the Calgary project, the engineering process included site-related assessment and lighting design support before finalizing the roadway lighting configuration.
01 — Existing System Assessment
The existing roadway lighting system was reviewed to establish the basis for the LED upgrade.
Relevant information includes:
Existing luminaire type
Existing wattage
Pole height
Pole spacing
Roadway width
Existing electrical conditions
Existing lighting performance
02 — Onsite Metering
Onsite metering provides actual project data for evaluating the existing lighting condition and supporting the proposed LED configuration.
03 — Lighting Layout
LIKELITE can develop roadway lighting layouts using:
DIALux Evo
LitePro Dlx
AGi32
AutoCAD
These layouts allow the project team to evaluate the proposed luminaire arrangement before installation.
04 — Luminaire Configuration
The 100W LED roadway light was specified according to the project's electrical, environmental and lighting requirements.
05 — Installation
The approved LED roadway lighting configuration was supplied for project installation, with installation-related technical support included within the project service scope.
Photometric Design
Roadway Lighting Calculation Before Installation
For roadway Projects, luminaire wattage alone does not determine the final lighting result.
Photometric calculations can be used to evaluate:
Road surface illumination
Average illuminance
Minimum illuminance
Uniformity
Luminaire spacing
Mounting height
Beam distribution
Luminaire orientation
LIKELITE supports roadway lighting calculations through DIALux Evo, LitePro Dlx and AGi32 according to project requirements.
For a complete project documentation package, the final website project page should include the actual approved calculation report and project-specific photometric results where available.
Project Installation
2,000 LED Roadway Lights
The project quantity was:
2,000 sets
The installation scope covered the deployment of 100W LED Roadway Lights for the urban roadway lighting upgrade.
The project installation process can include:
Existing Fixture Removal → Mounting Inspection → LED Luminaire Installation → Electrical Connection → Luminaire Adjustment → System Commissioning
Final installation procedures depend on the existing pole, bracket and electrical infrastructure at each project location.
Environmental and Electrical Performance
Designed for Outdoor Roadway Operation
The Calgary project configuration incorporates several protection and reliability features.
IP66 Protection
The IP66 enclosure is designed to provide protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, supporting outdoor roadway applications.
10KV Surge Protection
The specified configuration includes 10KV surge protection for improved resistance to transient electrical surges in outdoor lighting systems.
Aluminum Alloy Housing
The aluminum alloy housing provides mechanical protection and supports thermal management during continuous outdoor operation.
-20°C to +45°C Operating Range
The specified operating temperature range is -20°C to +45°C.
For Projects with operating conditions outside this range, LIKELITE can evaluate the required driver, thermal and material configuration separately.
Energy Saving Performance
Up to 30% Energy Saving Target
One of the main objectives of the Calgary roadway lighting upgrade was to reduce operating energy consumption.
Before & After Comparison
DIALux EVO Lighting Simulation Verification
The project specification indicates an energy-saving target of:
30%
The actual energy-saving percentage of a roadway lighting retrofit depends on:
Existing luminaire wattage
Existing lighting system efficiency
New LED connected load
Daily operating hours
Lighting control strategy
Number of operating hours per year
Therefore, the 30% figure should be presented as the project target / reported project specification unless supported by a measured energy audit or utility data.
This distinction keeps the project page technically credible for engineering and procurement audiences.
Project Value
Why This Calgary Project Matters
The value of this project is not limited to replacing 2,000 lighting fixtures.
The project demonstrates the combination of:
Project-scale LED supply + roadway lighting engineering + electrical compatibility + outdoor protection + photometric design support
For municipalities and EPC contractors, this approach helps connect product procurement with the actual engineering requirements of roadway infrastructure.
