How to choose the pole height of solar street light in new rural construction?

The following principles should be followed when choosing the lamp post height of solar street light in new rural construction:

 

Road width matching: Generally speaking, the height of the light pole maintains a certain proportion with the width of the road. For rural roads, the width is usually 4-5 meters, and a 6-meter high light pole is recommended. If the road is wider, the height of the light pole can be increased appropriately, such as 8 meters of light poles for two-way lanes with a width of more than 10 meters.

 

Lighting coverage: The height of the pole needs to ensure that the lighting range of the lamps can cover the entire road, and generally the distance from the lamp head to the ground should take into account the height of the vehicle to ensure that the lighting is not obstructed. For example, a 6-meter high pole with a lamp head to ground level of about 5.5 meters is suitable for most rural roads.

 

Light source power and height: The height of the light pole matches the power of the LED light fitted. Shorter poles (e.g. 4-5 meters) are suitable for low power light sources, while higher poles (6-8 meters) are suitable for higher power light sources to ensure sufficient brightness and even illumination.

 

Visual effect and safety: When choosing the height of the pole, visual aesthetics and driving safety should also be taken into consideration to ensure that the luminaire does not cause glare to drivers and at the same time provides a good view of the road.

 

Standardization and Economy: Follow local or industry standards and choose a height that is both economical and practical. For example, for roads up to 8 meters wide, 25-40 watt LED lights with 6-7 meter poles are a common configuration.

 

To summarize, the choice of pole height for solar street lights in new rural construction should be based on the actual width of the road, lighting needs, visual effect and economic budget, to ensure that it meets the lighting requirements without wasting resources.
