Project Scope

The project focused on the upgrade of highway lighting infrastructure using LED Highway Lights.

LIKELITE's project scope included lighting engineering support and product supply.

The available service scope included:

Lighting & Circuitry Design

Onsite Metering

DIALux Evo Layout

LitePro DLX Layout

AutoCAD Layout

AGi32 Layout

Project Installation

The final engineering scope was determined according to project requirements.


Why LED Highway Lighting Was Selected

Highway lighting operates across large outdoor areas and requires stable lighting equipment suitable for continuous infrastructure operation.

For the Düsseldorf application, the selected LED Highway Light configuration combined:

High Luminous Efficiency

130 lm/W

The high-efficiency LED configuration was used as part of the energy-efficiency upgrade.

Outdoor Protection

IP66

The fixture enclosure is specified for outdoor highway lighting applications.

Surge Protection

10KV

The fixture configuration includes 10KV surge protection.

Wide Input Voltage

85VAC–305VAC (±20%)

The wide input-voltage range provides flexibility for roadway electrical systems within the specified operating range.

Aluminum Alloy Housing

The lamp body uses aluminum alloy for the outdoor lighting fixture structure.

Project Engineering

Lighting & Circuitry Design

Highway lighting replacement requires more than fixture selection.

The lighting system must be considered together with:

  • Existing roadway infrastructure

  • Fixture mounting conditions

  • Electrical circuits

  • Lighting positions

  • Road geometry

  • Operating requirements

LIKELITE supported the project with lighting and circuitry design according to the confirmed project scope.


DIALux Highway Lighting Layout

DIALux Evo was available as part of the engineering service scope.

Other supported engineering tools included:

  • LitePro DLX

  • AutoCAD

  • AGi32

The purpose of the lighting layout was to evaluate the proposed LED fixture configuration within the project roadway environment.

A final DIALux result should always be based on the actual:

road geometry + mounting height + pole spacing + photometric data + project lighting criteria.

Therefore, project-specific Lux and uniformity values should only be published when supported by the actual calculation report.


Onsite Metering

For Projects requiring field verification, LIKELITE can support:

Onsite Metering

The field assessment can be used to understand existing lighting conditions before or during the retrofit process.

Typical assessment items may include:

  • Existing illumination

  • Lighting distribution

  • Existing fixture condition

  • Dark areas

  • Roadway lighting performance

  • Electrical information

The exact measurement scope depends on the project requirements.


Highway Lighting Upgrade Process

01 — Existing Lighting Assessment

Review the existing highway lighting system, available drawings and fixture information.

02 — Technical Data Collection

Collect relevant information regarding roadway layout, mounting conditions and electrical requirements.

03 — LED Fixture Selection

Select the appropriate LED Highway Light configuration according to project requirements.

04 — Lighting Simulation

Prepare DIALux Evo, LitePro DLX, AutoCAD or AGi32 layouts as required.

05 — Engineering Confirmation

Confirm fixture power, quantity, optical configuration and electrical requirements.

06 — Production

Manufacture the 120W LED Highway Lights according to the confirmed technical specification.

07 — Delivery

Supply the project quantity of:

9,000 sets

08 — Installation

Provide project installation support according to the confirmed project scope.


Energy-Saving Performance

The Düsseldorf highway lighting upgrade reported:

25% Energy-Saving Improvement

This result is associated with the specific project configuration and operating conditions.

Energy performance can vary according to:

  • Existing fixture wattage

  • Existing fixture quantity

  • Replacement wattage

  • Operating hours

  • Lighting schedules

  • Electrical conditions

  • Control strategy

  • Actual system load

Therefore, the 25% figure should be treated as a project reference result rather than a universal guaranteed saving rate.

For future highway Projects, LIKELITE can calculate the expected energy consumption based on the customer's existing lighting data and proposed LED configuration.


Compliance & Certification

The project product configuration was specified with:

CE

Including:

LVD + EMC

RoHS

Restriction of hazardous substances requirements.

GS

Specified German product safety certification.

VDE

Specified German electrical safety certification.

TÜV

Specified third-party testing/certification configuration.

Final certification documents and applicable standards should be verified against the exact production model and project requirements before procurement.


Project Delivery Capability

A highway project involving thousands of fixtures requires coordinated production and delivery.

For this Düsseldorf reference application:

9,000 Sets

of LED Highway Lights were specified.

The project supply configuration was:

120W + 130 lm/W + IP66 + 10KV Surge Protection

This type of bulk supply is suitable for highway retrofit projects requiring standardized fixture configurations across a large installation area.


Quality & Technical Configuration

The project fixture configuration included:

CREE SMD3030 LED

Aluminum Alloy Body

IP66

10KV Surge Protection

130 lm/W

Ra 80

5000K ±300K

30,000 Hours

85VAC–305VAC (±20%)

The technical configuration should be matched to the actual highway conditions before final production.
