Road lighting - Part 1: Guidelines on selection of lighting classes

Edition date: 2014-12-03

Available languages: English, French
Summary: La décision d'éclairer ou non une route est définie dans la politique nationale en matière d'éclairage public. Elle varie donc d'un pays ou d'une municipalité à l'autre. Des lignes directrices spécifiques sont généralement disponibles au niveau national, pour chaque pays. Le présent Rapport technique ne se prononce pas sur les critères justifiant ou non l'éclairage d'une zone donnée, ni sur la façon dont il convient d'utiliser une installation d'éclairage. La publication CIE 115:2010 (paragraphe 1.2 et Annexe A) donne des orientations complémentaires sur ce sujet. Le présent Rapport technique spécifie les classes d'éclairage mentionnées dans l'EN 13201-2 et fournit des lignes directrices pour sélectionner la classe la mieux adaptée à une situation donnée. À ce titre, il fait appel à un système visant à définir des classes d'éclairage appropriées pour différentes zones publiques extérieures en termes de paramètres pertinents pour atteindre les buts exposés en préambule. Les méthodes exposées aux Articles 5, 6 et 7 doivent être considérées comme les points de départ d'une approche globale en matière d'éclairage public normal. En ce sens, les modèles ne peuvent pas couvrir la totalité des différents cas routiers ; ils présentent les paramètres généraux ainsi que leur impact sur les exigences d'éclairage. Seule la situation réelle et ses caractéristiques spécifiques (géométrie de la route, marquage, environnement visuel, difficulté de la tâche de navigation, manque de visibilité, risques d'éblouissements dus aux éléments existants, conditions météorologiques locales, usagers spécifiques tels qu'une forte proportion de personnes âgées ou malvoyantes, etc.) peuvent conduire à la détermination finale de la classe d'éclairage appropriée en utilisant des techniques d'évaluation des risques. Les besoins visuels des usagers de la route avec un volume de trafic réduit pendant certaines périodes nocturnes ou en cas de conditions météorologiques variables, ainsi que les avantages liés à la réduction de la consommation d'énergie et les améliorations potentielles pour l'environnement, ne sont que quelques facteurs qui justifient l'installation d'un éclairage public adaptatif. Il existe un large éventail d'instruments, de dispositifs et de méthodes qui peuvent être utilisés pour piloter une installation d'éclairage public de manière intelligente. Les systèmes de commande varient du système très simple aux applications les plus sophistiquées. L'Annexe B peut s'avérer utile dans le choix d'un niveau d'éclairage correct en cas d'utilisation d'un éclairage adaptatif car elle fournit une évaluation plus fine des niveaux de luminance ou d'éclairement dans la classe d'éclairage spécifique. Bien que les niveaux de luminance ou d'éclairement puissent varier pour s'adapter à un volume de trafic réduit, aux conditions météorologiques ou à d'autres paramètres, il convient de maintenir en permanence les paramètres de qualité de la classe d'éclairage applicable spécifiée dans l'EN 13201-2. Il est important de renouveler ou de remettre à neuf les installations obsolètes et non rentables. L'utilisation de conceptions et technologies nouvelles peut permettre d'obtenir des niveaux d'éclairage mieux adaptés, tout en réduisant la consommation d'énergie. La mise à niveau des systèmes d'éclairage et de commande engendrera souvent de bons rapports coût-bénéfice et de courtes périodes d'amortissement. Par ailleurs, le présent document ne donne pas de directives quant au choix des classes d'éclairage pour les gares de péage, les tunnels, les canaux et les écluses.

This Technical Report specifies the lighting classes set out in EN 13201-2 and gives guidelines on the selection of the most appropriate class for a given situation. To do this, it includes a system to define appropriate lighting classes for different outdoor public areas in terms of parameters relevant to guarantee the aims presented in introductions. The decision on whether a road should be lit is defined in the national road lighting policy. This varies by country or municipality. Specific guidelines are usually available at national level for each country. This Technical Report does not give the criteria on which a decision to light an area can be made, nor on how a lighting installation should be used. Further guidance is given in CIE 115:2010 (Paragraph 1.2 and Annex A). The methods presented in Clauses 5, 6 and 7 have to be considered as the starting points of a comprehensive approach for the normal road lighting. In that sense, the models cannot cover all the different road cases; they introduce general parameters and the impact on lighting requirements. Only the real situation and its unique characteristics (geometry of the road, marking, visual environment, difficulty of the navigation task, lack of visibility, risks of glares due to existing elements, local weather, specific users such as high rate of elderly or visually impaired people, etc.) can lead to a final determination of the appropriate lighting class applying risk evaluation techniques. The visual needs of road users under reduced traffic volumes during certain periods of night or under varying weather conditions, and the positive benefits of reduced energy consumption and potential environmental improvements, are some of the considerations which justify the installation of adaptive road lighting. There are a variety of suitable instruments, devices and methods which can be used for the intelligent control of a road lighting installation. The control systems range from very simple to the most sophisticated applications. Annex B is of assistance in choosing the correct lighting level when adaptive lighting is used as it provides a more refined evaluation of the luminance or illuminance levels within the specific lighting class. Whilst the luminance or illuminance levels may be varied to suit reduced traffic volumes, weather conditions or other parameters the quality parameters of the applicable lighting class specified in EN 13201-2 should be maintained at all times. Renewal or refurbishment of obsolete and uneconomic installations is important. It may be possible to obtain more adapted lighting levels with lower energy consumption using new designs and new technology. The upgrading of lighting and control systems will often give good cost-benefit ratios and short amortisation periods. This document does not give guidelines on the selection of lighting classes for toll stations, tunnels or canals and locks.
