Monitoring of the lighting conditions of a street illuminated with road lights equipped with LEDs

摘要

The concept of LED use in road lighting is new and not widely known. On the lighting market many LED luminaire constructions have appeared. Lighting parameters given by the manufacturers (distributors) are questionable. Moreover, there are no many practical solutions of road lighting with the use of LED luminaires. There is lack of experience showing how such LED luminaires work in real conditions. It was decided to monitor road lighting conditions on one of the Warsaw streets where LED luminaires had been installed. In this paper the report of monitoring will be presented.
