Highway Lighting Solution Overview

Highway lighting requires more than selecting a high-power LED luminaire.

A suitable highway lighting system must consider:

• Road width
• Number of lanes
• Pole height
• Pole spacing
• Mounting arrangement
• Road surface
• Traffic conditions
• Existing electrical infrastructure
• Required illumination
• Uniformity
• Glare control
• Energy consumption
• Maintenance requirements

LIKELITE approaches highway lighting as an engineering application, combining luminaire selection, photometric calculation, electrical design and project installation support.

La Plata Highway Lighting Application

Project Application Reference

The La Plata application is based on a highway lighting upgrade involving:

6,000 Sets of 150W LED Highway Lights

The selected product configuration provides:

• 150W rated power
• 130 lm/W luminous efficiency
• CREE SMD3030 LED
• 120° beam angle

20%

The actual energy-saving percentage for a specific installation should be verified against the existing system, operating schedule and measured energy consumption.

Highway Lighting Design

From Road Geometry to Luminaire Selection

LIKELITE's highway lighting design process begins with project parameters rather than a fixed wattage recommendation.

Typical design inputs include:

Road Information

• Highway classification
• Number of lanes
• Road width
• Median width
• Shoulder width
• Road surface
• Interchange areas
• Curves and ramps

Pole Information

• Pole height
• Pole spacing
• Pole position
• Arm length
• Mounting angle

Electrical Information

• Input voltage
• Frequency
• Existing circuits
• Distribution arrangement
• Surge protection requirements

Lighting Requirements

• Target illuminance
• Uniformity
• Longitudinal uniformity
• Glare considerations
• Color requirements

The final luminaire wattage should be selected after evaluating the complete roadway geometry.

Photometric Design

DIALux Evo Highway Lighting Calculation

LIKELITE can provide professional photometric design using:

DIALux Evo

The calculation can be used to evaluate:

• Average illuminance
• Minimum illuminance
• Uniformity
• Longitudinal uniformity
• Calculation grid
• Luminaire arrangement
• Roadway lighting distribution
• False-color illumination map

AGi32 Lighting Calculation

For projects requiring alternative professional lighting simulation, LIKELITE can also support:

AGi32

AGi32 can be used as an additional calculation platform for highway and roadway lighting layouts.

Project-specific calculation files should be developed from the actual:

Road Geometry + Pole Layout + Luminaire Photometry + Mounting Parameters

AutoCAD Highway Lighting Layout

Engineering drawings can be prepared using:

AutoCAD

Typical project drawings may include:

• Pole locations
• Luminaire positions
• Road geometry
• Lighting circuits
• Cable routes
• Distribution points
• Installation locations

Highway Lighting Circuitry Design

A highway lighting system also requires electrical coordination.

LIKELITE can support:

Lighting & Circuitry Design

The engineering scope may cover:

• Luminaire electrical configuration
• Circuit arrangement
• Input voltage
• Distribution layout
• Surge protection
• Control requirements
• Installation coordination

For the La Plata application, the specified luminaire input is:

AC220V / 50Hz

150W LED Highway Lights

High-Efficiency Highway Luminaire

The La Plata highway lighting application uses:

150W LED Highway Lights

with a specified luminous efficiency of:

130 lm/W

Based on the supplied specification:

150W × 130 lm/W = approximately 19,500 lm

Therefore, the nominal calculated light output is approximately:

19,500 lm per luminaire

This is a product-level nominal calculation.

It is not equivalent to measured roadway illuminance.

Optical Configuration

LED Source

CREE SMD3030 LED

Beam Angle

120°

Color Temperature

5000K ±500K

Color Rendering

Ra 80

The optical configuration should be evaluated together with:

• Pole height
• Pole spacing
• Road width
• Mounting angle
• Road geometry

A 120° beam angle should therefore not be evaluated independently from the complete roadway design.

Outdoor Protection

IP65 Highway Lighting Housing

The specified highway luminaire uses:

IP65

for outdoor protection.

The housing configuration includes:

ALU + PC

with:

Aluminum Alloy Lamp Body

and a specified operating temperature of:

-20°C to +45°C

This configuration is intended for outdoor roadway applications.

Electrical Protection

10KV Surge Protection

Highway lighting infrastructure can be exposed to electrical transients and lightning-related surges.

The specified product configuration includes:

10KV Surge Protection

and:

1.5KV Voltage Resistance

The final protection system should be coordinated with the project's electrical distribution and grounding design.

Energy-Saving Highway Retrofit

20% Reported Energy Saving

The La Plata application provides a reported energy-saving figure of:

20%

LED retrofit energy savings depend on the comparison between the existing and proposed systems.

Key variables include:

• Existing luminaire wattage
• New luminaire wattage
• Operating hours
• Dimming schedule
• Control system
• Circuit losses
• Maintenance condition

LIKELITE can support onsite metering and project data collection covering:

• Existing pole spacing
• Existing luminaire wattage
• Road dimensions
• Pole height
• Installation position
• Existing lighting condition
• Electrical information

This information can then be incorporated into the lighting calculation.

Project Installation Support

The engineering service can extend from design to installation coordination.

Installation planning may consider:

• Pole condition
• Mounting compatibility
• Luminaire orientation
• Cable connection
• Electrical safety
• Existing infrastructure
• Maintenance access

The objective is to ensure that the selected luminaire performs according to the approved project design.
