| BSI | 2016 | 54 |
This European Standard specifies measurement conditions and procedures for measuring the photometric quality parameters of road lighting installations, i.e. the quantities that quantify their performances in accordance with EN 13201‑2 lighting classes.
Parameters used for quantifying the energy performance of road lighting installations are not considered.
A methodology to evaluate the road lighting performances considering tolerances in the design parameters is described in the informative Annex A.
