Church Parking Lot Lighting + Light Pole Case Study

This case study focuses on the lighting design for a 56-car parking lot. The objective was to enhance visibility, ensure safety, and provide energy-efficient lighting. After a detailed evaluation, the following solution was implemented:

  • Lighting Fixtures:
    • Four 200W LED Area Lights, strategically positioned for optimal light distribution.
    • Two fixtures equipped with Type 4 lenses and two with Type 2 lenses to cater to specific directional lighting needs.
  • Poles & Accessories:
    • Four 20-foot 4-inch square poles with a 2-foot base for elevation and stability.
    • Four Photosensors for automatic on/off functionality, reducing energy consumption.
