Municipal Lighting Solutions/Municipal Road Lighting Solutions for Urban Infrastructure

LED Street Lighting + Intelligent Lighting Control + Engineering Design

LIKELIT provides integrated municipal lighting solutions for city roads, urban streets, residential roads, public infrastructure and roadway renovation projects.

The solution combines:

LED Street Lights + Lighting Design + Electrical Design + Intelligent Lighting Control + Lighting Simulation + Project Installation

A representative reference configuration is the Johannesburg Municipal Road Lighting Upgrade in South Africa, based on:

6,000 sets of 120W LED Street Lights

with NRCS LOA, IP66 protection, 125 lm/W luminous efficiency and an intelligent control system combining:

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

The reference configuration is designed for municipal roadway upgrades where lighting performance, energy consumption, electrical protection, control flexibility and project engineering all need to be considered together.

Municipal Road Lighting Challenges

Municipal roadway lighting projects normally involve more than replacing conventional lamps with LED fixtures.

Engineering teams need to consider:

• Existing roadway conditions
• Pole height and spacing
• Road width
• Existing electrical infrastructure
• Lighting requirements
• Traffic patterns
• Operating hours
• Energy consumption
• Local certification requirements
• Surge protection
• Environmental conditions
• Intelligent control
• Installation requirements

A suitable municipal lighting solution therefore needs to connect the lighting fixture, optical design, electrical system, control strategy and installation process.

Reference Configuration — Johannesburg, South Africa

Municipal Road Lighting Upgrade

Location: Johannesburg, South Africa
Application: Municipal Road Lighting
Product: LED Street Lights
Power: 120W
Quantity: 6,000 sets
Certification: NRCS LOA
Warranty: 2 Years
Energy-Saving Result: 28%
Control System: Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

Reference Technical Configuration

LED Street Lighting Solution

120W LED Street Lights

The reference configuration uses 120W LED Street Lights with a specified luminous efficiency of:

125 lm/W

The LED source is:

Lumileds SMD2835

The optical configuration uses:

120° Beam Angle

with:

5000K ± 300K CCT

and:

Ra 80 CRI

This configuration can be adapted according to actual road geometry, pole arrangement and lighting calculation requirements.

The final wattage should not be selected only according to the existing lamp wattage. It should be determined from the actual roadway conditions and lighting design.

Intelligent Municipal Lighting Control

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

Municipal roads often have different traffic conditions throughout the night.

LIKELIT integrates three control functions into the reference solution.

Microwave Motion Sensor

Motion detection can be used to adjust lighting operation according to detected movement.

This provides greater flexibility for roads where traffic activity changes during different periods of the night.

Light Control

Light-control functionality can respond to ambient lighting conditions and support automatic lighting operation.

Timer Control

Timer control allows municipalities or operators to define operating schedules according to project requirements.

Combined Control

The three functions can work as:

Motion Detection + Ambient Light Detection + Time Schedule

The actual control parameters should be configured after reviewing road usage, traffic conditions and municipal operating requirements.

Lighting Engineering & Simulation

A municipal lighting solution should be verified before installation.

LIKELIT provides multiple engineering design workflows.

Onsite Metering

Existing roadway conditions can be measured before the final lighting configuration is selected.

Typical information includes:

Road Width
Pole Height
Pole Spacing
Existing Fixture Wattage
Electrical Supply
Operating Hours

DIALux Evo Layout

DIALux Evo can be used to model the roadway and evaluate the proposed LED Street Light arrangement.

The design process can assess:

• Fixture position
• Mounting height
• Road geometry
• Optical distribution
• Calculation area
• Illuminance
• Uniformity

Litepro DLX Layout

Litepro DLX can be used for lighting layout and engineering coordination according to project requirements.

AutoCAD Layout

AutoCAD support covers:

Lighting Layout + Circuitry Layout + Engineering Coordination + Installation Drawings

AGi32 Layout

AGi32 calculations can be provided where required by the engineering workflow or project specification.

Electrical Protection

Municipal roadway lighting operates in exposed outdoor environments.

The reference configuration includes:

IP66

for outdoor protection.

10KV Surge Protection

for electrical surge protection.

1.5KV Voltage Resistance

for the specified electrical configuration.

The system operates at:

AC230V / 50Hz

Final electrical protection and installation requirements should follow the local project specification and applicable standards.

Municipal Lighting for South African Conditions

The Johannesburg reference configuration demonstrates how a municipal roadway lighting solution can combine:

NRCS LOA

AC230V / 50Hz

IP66

10KV Surge Protection

125 lm/W

Intelligent Lighting Control

Engineering Lighting Simulation

The exact product and control configuration should be reviewed against the requirements of each South African municipal project.

Energy-Saving Strategy

Reference Energy-Saving Result: 28%

The Johannesburg reference case specifies:

28% Energy Saving

Energy performance is affected by multiple factors, including:

• Existing fixture wattage
• Replacement wattage
• Annual operating hours
• Existing control schedule
• LED operating schedule
• Motion sensor settings
• Ambient light control
• Traffic conditions

Therefore, the 28% figure belongs to the supplied Johannesburg reference configuration and should not be presented as a guaranteed savings percentage for every municipal roadway project.

For a new project, LIKELIT can evaluate the existing system and calculate the expected energy performance based on actual operating conditions.
