PROPOSAL

FOR
INSTALLATION

THE

SUPPLY

AND

OF LED SOLAR POWERED STREET LIGHT

AT ILORIN
WEST LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA ALONG
LUBCON
ROAD ILORIN.

PRE-AMBLE
Proposal for the installation of standalone Solar
Powered LED perimeter lighting within Ilorin West Local
Government is Informed by the incessant Power failure by
the supply authority; thus creating security threat
particular in the night. In order to resolve this issue at
once, feasibility studies of the entire Local Government
Area was carried out with a view to installing Solar
Powered Street light that can provide enough illumination
at designated area and to create security awareness at
night.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Scope of supply
The scope of supply and installation shall be 20N0. DC
standalone Solar powered street lights. Typical operating
condition is from dawn to dusk with optional dimming
possibility for 50% of the time to save energy. The system
must be able to operate for a maximum of Two nights

even with an over cast weather of consecutive Two days.

The system is composed of the following items:
-solar panels
-charger/controller
-Gel battery(s)
-Equipment storage housing
-Wire harness
-Mounting brackets (must allow variable orientation and
inclination of the PV module
Purpose fabricated galvanized steel poles shall be used
as indicated at the strategic positions indicated on the
drawing.
Environment requirements
-water resistance
-corrosion resistance
-colour temperature:2700,2500 or
clients decision for type of colour)

Life span:> 100,000 hours
Means lumen:6,800
Means pupil lumen:11,000.
CRI>80
Expected life span over 8 years in normal operating
condition

Charger controller specification:

The charger controller should be located close to the
battery(s) and it should need minimum maintenance.
This unit can include the automatic dusk/down switch and
the dimmer/timer module. The controller should have the
following protections:
-

Overcharging

Overload
Reverse current
Thunder

After market:
All components that may be replaced during the life time
of the product need to have spare parts available at the
supplier. The spare parts need to be available for 20
years after the date of installation. Equivalent parts
replacing the installed item can be proposed with the
customer approval.
Guarantee:

The overall warranty period for all installed items is for a

minimum of 2 years.
This warranty covers all
manufacturer/workmanship defects only. The individual
warranty on each installed component should be as
follow:
- PV Modules: 20 Batteries: 2 years
- Charger controller: 2 years
- LVD Lamp: 5 years with maximum lumens output
lumens output drop of 1% per year Ballast: 2 years

Payments
For ease of operation and since most of the Materials to
be used are to be imported 80% of the contract sum will
be required as mobilization.
Completion Period
Maximum of six(6) weeks is proposed for the completion
of the project commencing from the date of site
possession.
