Selection on solar street and garden light
1. Selection on solar street and garden light
1.Select proper lighting poles(height):
Usually height of poles selected according to road width,it is better that height should be same or slight longer than road width value.
One-way street pathway, 3-4meters pole
Two-way street pathway, 5-7meters pole
Four-way and main road 8-12meters pole
Garden light and other area lighting application can be selected based on lighting area.
2. Power(Lumens) selection:
We can select power(lumen output) based specific usage condition, pole height and LED lumens, all of them can decide what power for solar light, by the way, all power we mentioned here are actual output instead of nominal power value.
Usually we can select lower power in the condition of a few passby and cars, on the contrary, higher power selected for busy road, details below:
Pole: 3-4meters, 15-20W solar street light
Pole: 5-7meters, 30-50W solar street light
Pole: 8-12meter, 50-120W solar street light
PS. Twin lamp holder should be considered for some special condition.
3. Diagonal Size selection of flange and cage:
First, the both size must be suitable for integrated and correct installation.
In general condition, higher pole height and larger diagonal size of flange and cage, more cage height
3-4meters pole, diagonal size is 240mm
5-7meters pole, diagonal size is 260mm
8-12meters pole, diagonal size is 280mm
4. Thickness of poles
The thicker the lamppost, the stronger the load-bearing capacity and wind resistance.
3-4meters pole, generally 1.5m-2.5mm;
5-7meters pole, generally 2.5m-2.75mm;
8-12meters pole, generally 2.75m-3.5mm;
2. Location and space between solar street lights
According to the drawings and the geological situation of the investigation site, make sure there is no shade for solar panel, the street light spacing 20-50 meters as the reference value to determine the installation position of the street light, otherwise the installation position of the street light should be adjusted appropriately.
Road width 3-4m, 3-4 pole height, 15-20W solar light, distance between poles is 20-25m
Road width 5-7m, 5-7 pole height, 30-50W solar light, distance between poles is 25-30m
Road width 8-12m, 8-12 pole height, 50-120W solar light, distance between poles is 30-40m
