Road lights can improve traffic conditions, reduce driver fatigue, and help improve road capacity and ensure traffic safety.


2. Landscape lights:


The landscape art lamp is an indispensable part of the modern landscape. It not only has a high ornamental value, but also emphasizes the harmony and unity of the landscape of the art lamp, the historical culture of the scenic spot, and the surrounding environment.


(1), Chinese lights:


Zhonghua Lamps are generous in appearance, generally have multiple light sources, generous and decent, high illuminance, and good landscape effects. They are one of the representative series of traditional styles.


(2) Firework lights:


The firework lights have various styles and beautiful appearance. The night light can emit colorful brilliance, flashing like fireworks, which can be said to be a beautiful scenery at night. Firework lights-parameter description: firework lights are home decoration, engineering decoration A popular trend of lighting, can be divided into landscape fireworks lights, decorative fireworks lights, LED fireworks lights, energy-saving fireworks lights and other fireworks lights of different purposes.


(3) Cherry blossom lights:


The cherry blossom light looks like a tree with colorful colors. The LED tree light is a new type of simulated landscape light, which is environmentally friendly, has a long life and is beautiful.


3. Buried lights:


Buried lights have square and round shapes. They are widely used in shopping malls, parking lots, green belts, parks, tourist attractions, residential quarters, urban sculptures, pedestrian streets, building steps and other places. They are mainly buried in the ground and used to It is used for decoration or indicating lighting, and some are used for washing walls or illuminating trees, and its application has considerable flexibility.


4. Lawn lights:


Lawn lights are used for lighting facilities around lawns, as well as important landscape facilities. With its unique design and soft lighting, it adds safety and beauty to the urban green landscape, and is easy to install and highly decorative. It can be used in parks and gardens. For lawn surrounding villas, pedestrian streets, parking lots, squares and other places, 36W or 70W metal halide sodium lamps should be used, with a distance of 6 to 10 meters.


5. Wall lamp:


The wall lamp has a beautiful appearance, simple and graceful lines. It has a variety of styles and forms. It is generally placed in a community, park, or column head. It is very appreciative. It is simple to install, easy to maintain, and consumes less power. The light source is generally energy-saving lamps, and the material is generally stainless steel, aluminum, and iron. Products, the surface of the lamp body is electrostatically sprayed. The lamp body is generally welded with flat iron. After the lamp body is electrostatically sprayed, the surface is smooth, bright in color, and uniform in brightness. It has strong anti-corrosion performance requirements. There are generally four screws when installing. Fix it with enough strength to fix it.


6. Spotlight:


The purpose of spotlights is like flashlights. They are generally used outdoors and indoors. Because of the different varieties, the uses are also different.


7. Flood light:


Spotlights are lamps that make the illuminance on the designated illuminated surface higher than the surrounding environment. They are also called spotlights. Usually they can aim at any direction and have a structure that is not affected by climatic conditions. They are mainly used for large-area operation sites, mines, and building outlines. , Stadiums, overpasses, monuments, parks and flower beds, etc. Therefore, almost all large-area lighting fixtures used outdoors can be regarded as floodlights. The beam angle of the floodlights can be wide or narrow, and the range of variation is 0°~180 ° between °, where the beam is particularly narrow is called a searchlight.


8. Wall washer lamp:


Wall washer, as the name suggests, allows the light to wash through the wall like water. It is mainly used for architectural decoration lighting and also used to outline the outline of large buildings. Because the LED light source has energy saving, high light efficiency, rich color and long life Therefore, the wall washer of other light sources is gradually replaced by the LED wall washer. The technical parameters of the LED wall washer are roughly similar to those of the LED flood light.


Outdoor lighting


The above is a brief introduction about the types of common outdoor lighting fixtures. I believe that after the above lighting, everyone will have a further understanding and understanding of common outdoor lighting fixtures. Of course, among the various outdoor lighting fixtures, the landscape lights are the most Indispensable, landscape lights are an indispensable part of modern landscapes. Landscape lights not only have a high degree of appreciation, but also emphasize the coordination and unity of the landscape of art lights, the history and culture of the scenic spot, and the surrounding environment. How to choose and buy outdoor landscape lights? Install it? Take a look at the following introduction:


How to choose and install outdoor landscape lights:

1. How to buy outdoor landscape lights:


1. Understand the characteristics of landscape lights:


The landscape lights are simple in shape, reflecting the design concept of popular lighting poles; using digital color light tubes, through the intelligent digital controller to achieve color chasing, scanning, gradual change and flicker and other changes, has a strong environmental impact.


2. Understand the production process of landscape lights:


The lamp cup is made of high-quality stainless steel, a kind of high-alloy steel that can resist corrosion in the air or in chemical corrosive media. The inherent surface performance and the reflection of stainless steel at night make the landscape light a dynamic artwork, which is an extremely beautiful landscape light work.


3. Understand the customization process of landscape lights:


Landscape lights, street lights and other products, the individual products are relatively large, and the styles are relatively large, so generally the number of inventory is relatively small, or there is no inventory, and they must be customized. The time for customization is basically one to two weeks. The specifics still depend on the quantity and complexity of the product.


2. How to install outdoor landscape lights:


1. Wire pipe and steel pipe laying:


(1) The design and selection of electric wire pipes and steel pipes are hidden, and the construction shall be carried out in accordance with the construction process specifications of the electric wire pipes and steel pipe laying sub-projects. The purchase of wire pipes and steel pipes shall be strictly controlled. Junction boxes, lamp holder boxes, switch boxes, etc. shall be provided. Product certification.


(2) Pre-embedded pipes should be closely coordinated with civil construction. Firstly, the arrangement of water pipes should be satisfied, and secondly, the direction of electrical piping should be arranged.


(3) The outdoor power distribution lines are laid in the ground through HDPE pipes. The buried depth of the pipeline is 0.7m. When crossing the water system, the buried depth is not less than 0.5m. When crossing the motorway, it is laid through steel pipes. L500.W300.H700 road wells are set next to it, and reliable waterproof measures should be adopted at all circuit branches (such as the use of IP62 waterproof junction boxes).


2. Threading:


The wire inside the pipe must be strictly controlled when the wire is purchased. The standard type of the wire must meet the design requirements and have a factory certificate. After arrival, check whether the insulation resistance, the diameter of the core diameter, the raw material and the weight of each coil meet the requirements. The size of the diameter should be selected in response to the standard protective mouth. The specifications and raw materials such as nylon crimping caps and wiring noses should meet the requirements. The threading in the pipe should be carried out after the building structure and civil construction work is completed. 2.0MM iron wire, leave a margin of 10~15cm at both ends, and then clean the soil and dust of pipes, switch boxes, socket boxes, etc. When threading, pay attention to that the wires of the same communication circuit must pass through the same tube. Different circuits, different voltages, and communication and straight wires must not pass through the same tube, but the following conditions are outside: the standard voltage is below 50V; the same equipment Or the power circuit of the same assembly line equipment and the control circuit without special interference prevention requirements; several circuits of the same lantern; several circuits of the same type of lighting, but the total number of pipes in the pipe should not be more than 8. The reserved length of the wire: 15cm for the junction box, switch box, socket box and lamp holder box, and the distribution box is 1/2 of the circumference of the box.


3. Lamp installation:


(1) Lamps and light sources are selected according to the design requirements. All lamps should have a product certificate, the wiring inside the lamp is prohibited from being exposed, and the lamp accessories are complete.


(2) According to the installation place, check whether the lamp meets the requirements and check the wiring inside the lamp. The installation of the lamp must be strong, correct in position, neat and beautiful, and the wiring must be correct. For lamps above 3KG, it is necessary to pre-magnesium hooks or bolts. The metal shell of 2.4M lamps should be well grounded.


(3) After the installation is completed, after the insulation resistance of each branch circuit is qualified, the power is allowed to run. After the power is turned on, carefully check whether the control of the lamp is sensitive, preparation, switch and the control sequence of the lamp correspond, if there is a problem, it is necessary Turn off the power first, and then find the cause and correct it.


4. Grounding maintenance and safety measures:


(1) Use the TT method for grounding maintenance, set up a closed ring artificial grounding installation around the outdoor lighting box, use 50*50*5 L2500 hot-dip galvanized angle steel for the grounding pole, and use 40*4 hot-dip galvanized flat steel for the connection line to ground The pole distance is 5m, the buried depth is 0.8m, and the grounding resistance is not more than 10 ohms.


(2) The grounding terminals of all lamps in the system are connected to the PE busbar of the lighting box and grounded after being firmly connected through the PE wire.


(3) In order to prevent overvoltage from lightning strikes, a first-level surge protector is installed in the outdoor lighting box.
