Had to replace a lamp, but the same was no longer available. Great advice, found a suitable replacement and delivered it quickly.

Applications for street lights and car park luminaires

Modern LED street lights are versatile — suited to any location requiring permanent, reliable illumination:

Public roads and junctions
Cycle paths and footpaths
Car parks and company premises
Industrial and commercial estates
Campus sites, schools, and public facilities

Advantages of LED street lights

Modern LED street lighting is not just about energy efficiency. Excellent photometric values and the long-lasting performance of LED street lights increase safety while reducing costly and time-consuming maintenance and repair work. LED luminaires also offer flexibility in colour temperature and brightness, allowing street lighting to be adjusted to suit season, weather, and traffic volume — saving additional energy without compromising uniform illumination or leaving dangerous dark spots. LED street lights also make a positive contribution to climate and environmental protection.

Maintenance	Low	Regular lamp replacement required
Controllability	Dimmable, remote-controllable	Limited
IP rating	IP65–IP66	Varies

Light control for street lighting

Modern control systems allow street lights to be adjusted even more flexibly to traffic and weather conditions. Many professional LED pole-mounted luminaires support DALI or proprietary control protocols for centrally managed street lighting — time-controlled, demand-driven, or via remote maintenance. This further reduces energy consumption and maintenance requirements.

Electrician's tip: When planning street lighting, pay attention to the luminous intensity distribution (LID) of the chosen luminaire. For roads and car parks, asymmetric light distribution is ideal: it illuminates the relevant surface evenly, minimises light pollution, and meets the requirements of EN 13201 (road lighting). For standard-compliant planning, we recommend a light calculation.

Solar street lights

As well as mains-powered models, street lights are also available with integrated solar technology — particularly useful for remote locations without a mains connection or for pilot projects as part of municipal energy-saving initiatives. WATT24 primarily stocks professional mains-powered models; our lighting experts are happy to advise on the right solution for your specific requirements.

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about LED street lights

What are street lights and where are they used?

Street lights are pole-mounted luminaires for public road lighting and the illumination of car parks, cycle paths, footpaths, and commercial premises. Modern LED street lights are increasingly replacing older sodium vapour or mercury vapour lamps, offering significantly higher energy efficiency and a much longer service life.

What IP rating do street lights need?

Street lights installed outdoors require at least IP65. Professional pole-mounted luminaires for roads and car parks are often rated IP66, providing protection against powerful water jets and suitable for permanent mounting on poles.

What does asymmetric light distribution mean for street lights?

Street lights with asymmetric light distribution direct light precisely onto the road surface or area below the pole, without spilling into adjacent areas or the night sky. This reduces light pollution and improves uniformity of illumination on the relevant surface.

Can street lights be dimmed or remotely controlled?

Yes — modern LED street lights can be dimmed via control systems and adjusted to suit traffic volumes, weather conditions, or time of day. This saves energy and increases the flexibility of street lighting installations. Many models support DALI or proprietary control protocols.

What does it cost to upgrade street lighting to LED?

The cost of an LED street lighting upgrade depends on the number of lighting points, the chosen product, and installation costs. LED street lights typically pay for themselves quickly through significantly lower energy costs and reduced maintenance. A light calculation is recommended for accurate project planning.
