Discover the optimal solar street light configuration for 6-meter poles and 6-meter-wide roads. Learn how to meet Chinese lighting standards with cost-effective lighting design, spacing, and simulation.
Meet China’s National Lighting Standards with High Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness
1. National Standard Reference (CJJ 45-2015)
Road Type | Avg Illuminance (Em) | Uniformity (Ehmin/Em) |
---|---|---|
Secondary road / residential street | 10–15 lux | ≥ 0.25 |
2. Recommended Solar Street Light Configuration
- LED Lamp: 30W–40W, ≥160 lm/W, 4000K, Ra≥70, Type II lens
- Solar Panel: 90W–100W monocrystalline, ≥21% efficiency
- Battery: LiFePO₄ 12.8V 24Ah, 5–8 years life, 3–5 rainy days backup
- Controller: MPPT with light + timer control
- Design: Integrated, IP65+, 120° × 60° light beam
- Pole: 6m hot-dip galvanized steel, 140–160mm base, wind resistance ≥ Grade 10
3. Installation & Spacing Suggestion
- Installation: Single-side layout
- Tilt Angle: 5°–15°
- Recommended Spacing: 20–25 meters (optimal: 22 meters)
Simulation achieves 12–15 lux average illuminance with 0.28–0.35 uniformity, sufficient for pedestrian and bicycle safety.
4. Cost Estimation (USD)
Component | Estimated Price (USD) |
---|---|
30W LED Light | $18 – $25 |
100W Solar Panel | $28 – $35 |
24Ah LiFePO₄ Battery | $32 – $40 |
MPPT Controller | $8 – $12 |
6m Steel Pole + Foundation | $45 – $60 |
Total (Per Set) | $130 – $170 |
Note: Pricing varies by quantity, certifications (e.g., CE, UL, BIS), and shipping terms.
5. Optimization Tips for Cost-Effectiveness
- Use multi-mode dimming to save energy at night (e.g., 50% after midnight).
- Choose certified, durable components for lower maintenance cost.
- Incorporate modular design for easier replacements and upgrades.
6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q1: Can this setup handle several days of cloudy weather?
- A: Yes, with a 24Ah battery, it supports 3–5 days of backup power under dimmed lighting modes.
- Q2: How often should the battery be replaced?
- A: LiFePO₄ batteries typically last 5–8 years under normal usage.
- Q3: Do the solar panels require cleaning?
- A: Yes, we recommend cleaning every 3–6 months to maintain optimal efficiency, especially in dusty regions.
- Q4: Is the illumination sufficient for pedestrians and bikes?
- A: Absolutely. The average illuminance of 12–15 lux meets Chinese standards for residential and minor roads.
- Q5: Can motion sensors or IoT be added?
- A: Yes, PIR sensors, NB-IoT, or LoRa modules can be integrated for smart control and remote monitoring.

FAQ
Battery and Analysis
What are the possible reasons for zero or low voltage in a single battery?
2) The battery is continuously overcharged by high-rate and large current, causing the battery core to expand and the positive and negative electrodes to directly contact and short-circuit, etc.;
3) There is an internal short circuit or micro-short circuit in the battery, such as improper placement of the positive and negative electrode plates, resulting in a short circuit between the electrode plates, or contact between the positive and negative electrode plates, etc.

Battery fundamentals and basic terms
What is the purpose of battery packaging, assembly and design?
2.Battery voltage limitation, to get a higher voltage need to connect multiple batteries in series
3. Protect the battery, prevent short-circuit to extend the life of the battery
4. Size limitation
5. Easy transportation
6. Design of special functions, such as waterproof, special appearance design.
Battery Types and Applications
What type of batteries can be used in remote controls?
In principle, recharged secondary batteries can also be used, but when actually used in remote control devices, secondary batteries have a high self-discharge rate and need to be charged repeatedly, so this type of battery is not practical.
APMS system
How does the APMS system enhance battery life?
With its dual-system intelligent management mode, APMS reduces frequent charge-discharge cycles, optimizes energy usage, and significantly extends battery lifespan.
