Getting Started With LED Pole Lights

 


Why are LED pole lights important?


The installation of power-efficient light fixtures is often overlooked when it comes to securing the outer premises. High-quality LED pole lights are installed to illuminate the exteriors of the residential areas, walkways, and parking lots for proper brightness and to secure the outdoors. Let’s follow a simple guide to upgrading to LED parking lot lights from conventional outdoor light fixtures.


Getting started with LED pole lights


First of all, be familiar with the requirements of your premises. Second, do adhere to the city council or municipality guidelines when installing LED light fixtures. 


Prepare a plan and consult with a lighting expert regarding the number of lights required to illuminate your premises. Do check the wind speed and also the type of soil presence of the area. 


Installation guide


Step 1





The first step is to purchase the LED pole lights that meet the requirements of your premises. Secondly, detach the rubber gasket and adapter plate from the bracket.



Step 2





Fix the square or round pole bracket. Make sure that the fixture surface should be matching with the installation holes.


Put the square/round pole bracket against the fixture surface and the rubber bracket between the pole brackets and the required fixture surface. Then attach the pole brackets with the bolt.


Attach the bolster plate with the inside surface and then tighten the plate with bolts. 


Step 3





Push the wires which are attached with the square/round pole brackets through the hole. It protects the wire from damage. 


Connect the pole wire with the power wire. Make sure both connection and wire are connected correctly. 


Attach the rubber gasket and junction box cover with the help of the bolts. 


Step 4





Make sure that you adjust the body of the lamp to the required angle. Tighten it with bolts.


Precautions


  • Consult with a lighting professional before installing the LED pole lights.     


  • Use protective gloves and gear for protection against injuries.

  • If there is fire or smoke visible from the fixture during the installation process, turn off all power outlets and secure the premises.

LED Tubes: Advantages of LED T8 Light Solutions

Since the launch of LED technology,  The new generation of T8 LED tubes delivers optimum brightness at low power consumption. These tubes are divided into three types. Type A: Ballast Compatible Type B: Not compatible with the ballast  Type A + B: Can work with or without the help of ballast The ballast section controls energy distribution to ensure that the required voltage, current, and waveform are present when a traditional light source like the fluorescent tubes or HID lamps is turned on and operated.  T8 LED bulbs do not require this additional electricity consumption; therefore, eliminating the ballast saves you energy right away because you aren't wasting energy to ballast draw. Each modified fixture uses a few watts less without a ballast. T8 retrofits assist the older fixtures by using the ballast feature to control power consumption and distribute uniform brightness. Usually, the use of ballast has lowered down, giving way to new generation T8 LED tubes. ...
