techniques.
1. PATH LIGHTING: It is specifically designed to light pathways and
walkways to provide security and visibility for walking. Usually, low-impact
lights are used, wh.ch are either installed next to the path facing down or
buried in the path Itself facing upwards.
2. DOWN LIGHTING: This technique is used for lighting-specific activity
areas. Light source is above the object that Is to be lighted like on a pole,
building, wall or tree.
TYPES OF CONTROLS
TIMERS: These are the simplest type of controls and are most popular.
Some areas In buildings may require lighting for specific durations like
security lighting, landscape lighting or building floodlighting.Timers allow
this type of control by switching on and off as per preset times. These
can have one setting (same time) for the whole year or several (seasonal/
weekly/daily) settings to take care of the changing sunset times.
PHOTOCELL OUTDOOR LIGHTING CONTROL: This type of control turns
lights on and off by sensing daylight levels. Main application of these
controls is for security purposes where lighting Is required as in fig
1.Timer duration when enough daylight is not available.
These can be used In conjunction with the timer
controls for controlling lights that are required during dusk and can be
switched off at night.

Stand-alone solar lighting is a simple and safe method to power exterior lights as they
require no wiring or transformers.
The solar PV modules produce electricity during the day using energy from incident
solar radiation and charge the battery. This stored electricity Is then used to power
lights during evening or night time as required.
Solar-powered lighting can be used for building exterior lighting purposes like lighting
for
security, park, parking lot and walkways. Costs towards trenching and installation of
underground wiring, which is required in case of conventional outdoor lights
compensates to some extent for the higher cost of the solar lighting packs, thus making
them economically feasible. Currently LED- based solar-powered street lighting
systems for outdoor lighting are available in the market. These have high colour index
and operating life of more than 50000 hours.
Electricity generated by an on-site solar PV system can also be utilized to power
exterior light
fixtures of the required load. This solar PV plant can be designed exclusively for
providing electricity for exterior lights or else it can be sized for providing electricity
for other end uses as well.
