LIKELITE provides engineered LED stadium lighting solutions for football stadiums, sports grounds, training facilities and large outdoor sports complexes.
A stadium lighting system is not designed by wattage alone. The lighting configuration needs to consider the playing area, pole arrangement, mounting height, beam distribution, aiming direction, electrical system, operating requirements and lighting-control strategy.
LIKELITE supports EPC contractors, lighting contractors, engineering companies, sports facility operators, distributors and project buyers with lighting design, product configuration, circuitry design, simulation and project installation support.
Football Stadium Lighting Engineering
Football stadiums require controlled and distributed illumination across a large playing area.
A suitable LED stadium lighting design considers:
Football field dimensions
Existing pole locations
Mounting height
Luminaire quantity
Beam angle
Aiming direction
Playing-area coverage
Lighting uniformity
Glare considerations
Electrical load
Dimming requirements
Maintenance access
Local electrical requirements
Outdoor environmental conditions
LIKELITE develops the LED configuration according to the actual stadium conditions rather than applying one fixed wattage to every project.
LIKELITE Stadium Lighting Solution Process
01. Site and Project Assessment
The first stage is to establish the project design basis.
Typical project information includes:
Football field dimensions
Existing pole layout
Pole height
Existing luminaire specifications
Existing electrical system
Operating schedule
Required lighting level
Training or competition use
Dimming requirements
Project location
Local electrical requirements
For retrofit projects, onsite metering and existing-system assessment can be used to establish the replacement strategy.
02. Lighting Simulation and Layout
Professional lighting simulation is used to determine the appropriate luminaire quantity, position and aiming direction.
LIKELITE supports:
DIALux Evo Layout
Litepro DLX Layout
AGi32 Layout
AutoCAD Layout
The design can evaluate:
Luminaire Position → Mounting Height → Beam Angle → Aiming Direction → Field Coverage → Lighting Distribution
The final product configuration should be confirmed through the actual project lighting calculation.
03. LED Stadium Light Configuration
For large football stadiums, LIKELITE can configure high-output LED Stadium Lights according to the field size and required lighting performance.
A representative configuration from the Ottawa, Canada football stadium lighting upgrade includes:
| Specification | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Product | LED Stadium Lights |
| Power | 150W |
| Quantity | 500 sets |
| Luminous Efficiency | 130 lm/W |
| Input Voltage | 110-120V AC |
| Beam Angle | 120° |
| CCT | 5000K ±400K |
| CRI | Ra 70 |
| Protection | IP67 / IK09 |
| LED Source | OSRAM SMD3030 |
| Power Factor | PF >0.95 |
| Surge Protection | 4KV |
| Dimming | Supported |
| Operating Temperature | -35°C to +45°C |
| Frequency | 60Hz |
| Product Weight | Approx. 4.5 kg |
| Warranty | 3 Years |
| Certification | CSA |
This is a project reference configuration, not a universal specification for every football stadium.
04. Beam Distribution and Aiming
120° Beam Configuration
The representative configuration uses a 120° beam angle.
For stadium applications, beam angle selection must be coordinated with:
Pole position
Mounting height
Field dimensions
Aiming direction
Required coverage
Distance from pole to playing area
A wide beam can provide broad coverage, but the final aiming angle must be verified through lighting simulation.
The objective is to place light where it is required while avoiding unnecessary spill and excessive contrast.
05. North American Electrical Configuration
110-120V AC / 60Hz / PF >0.95
The Ottawa reference configuration is designed around:
Input Voltage: 110-120V AC
Frequency: 60Hz
Power Factor: PF >0.95
Surge Protection: 4KV
This electrical configuration is particularly relevant to North American stadium retrofit applications.
Final circuit design and installation should always be verified against the actual site electrical system and applicable local requirements.
06. Dimming and Stadium Operation
The LED Stadium Lights support dimming.
This allows the lighting system to be configured for different operating conditions, subject to the project's control system.
Typical applications include:
Training
Regular field operation
Competition
Maintenance
Partial-field operation
Reduced-output operation
Dimming can reduce unnecessary energy consumption when full output is not required.
07. Outdoor Protection and Mechanical Construction
IP67 / IK09
Outdoor stadium luminaires must operate under changing weather and environmental conditions.
The representative LIKELITE configuration uses:
IP67 / IK09
Housing construction:
Die-casting Aluminum ADC12 + PC Lens + Glass
Operating temperature:
-35°C to +45°C
The product uses:
OSRAM SMD3030 LED
with a stated lifespan of:
30,000 hours
Actual service life depends on installation environment, thermal conditions, electrical operation and maintenance.
08. Lighting and Circuitry Design
Stadium lighting requires coordination between the luminaires and the electrical infrastructure.
LIKELITE can support:
Lighting Design
Circuitry Design
Electrical Load Planning
Circuit Grouping
Dimming Configuration
Surge Protection
Existing-System Assessment
Installation Planning
The objective is to ensure that the LED lighting system is engineered as part of the stadium's electrical infrastructure rather than treated as an isolated product purchase.
Ottawa, Canada Football Stadium Lighting Upgrade
Reference Application
Location: Ottawa, Canada
Application: Football Stadiums
Project Type: Stadium Lighting Upgrade
Product: LED Stadium Lights
Power: 150W
Quantity: 500 sets
Luminous Efficiency: 130 lm/W
Certification: CSA
Warranty: 3 Years
Energy-Saving Improvement: 20%
The Ottawa reference application demonstrates how LIKELITE's stadium lighting configuration can be adapted to a North American football stadium environment.
The reference system uses 500 sets of 150W LED Stadium Lights, with 130 lm/W luminous efficiency, 110-120V AC input and 60Hz operating frequency.
The project reported approximately:
20% Energy-Saving Improvement
The application should be used as engineering reference information. Actual stadium lighting performance must be verified using project-specific lighting calculations and onsite measurements.
Stadium Lighting Retrofit
Existing Stadium → LED Stadium Lighting
For retrofit projects, LIKELITE recommends evaluating the existing system before finalizing the replacement configuration.
The assessment can include:
Existing Lighting System
→ Onsite Metering
→ Pole and Mounting Assessment
→ Lighting Simulation
→ LED Configuration
→ Electrical Design
→ Installation
