LED Lighting Requirements
1
As part of the overall Sustainable Lighting Strategy for Abu Dhabi, the DMA/DoT requires quality
energy efficient technologies and solutions which are LED or equivalent to be put forward where
ever possible. Where specific tasks may indeed be proved better performed by an energy-efficient
lighting technology other than LED then either the relevant Municipality or DoT will accept their
inclusion as an option in the design proposals and view the technical details before making a final
decision.
Where the total lighting installation needs to meet tight project budgetary constraints, then both
LED options and traditional energy-efficient technology fixture options shall be tabled to either the
relevant Municipality or DoT with full comparison costings and technical data in order for the final
decision to be made.
The additional technical specification requirements for LED fixtures necessary to ensure quality
solutions are proposed is detailed within this specification alongside the basic lighting specification
and design requirements.
Solar Lighting Requirements

2
The DMA/DoT strives to be a leader in sustainability and as part of this aim it is required that for
every park and public realm lighting project the Consultant shall explore the current viability and
options for solar lighting solutions in the marketplace and propose where best it can be offered for
incorporation into the project.
Particular attention should be paid to areas of the project which might provide specific advantages
for having some solar lighting technology and/or their cost of implementation can be mitigated by
other factors. These include, but are not limited to, interactive/awareness zones, integrated with
local structures, isolated areas without current electrical infrastructure, dedicated sports areas,
childrens play areas, sculptures/arts or specific paths.
Either the relevant Municipality or DoT may require detailed cost/payback analysis to develop any
approved options through to Detailed Design and Tender Issue.

The useful life of the luminaire in terms of lumen output must be as specified by one of the following
two methods.
a/ As per LM-79-08 or approved International equivalent. Simplified B20-L70 threshold. A minimum
of 50,000 operating hours before reaching the B20-L70 lumen output degradation point with no
catastrophic failures. The B20-L70 lumen output must be capable of providing the luminance level
and uniformity.
b/ Site performance method. A life time of number of hours specified by the site based on
expected site lighting useful life must be capable of providing the luminance levels of uniformity.
36
LED Useful life testing and verification procedure

Simplified B20-L70 threshold. Perform LM-79-08 (or approved International equivalent) testing on
the luminaire at both time intervals of 0 hours and 6,000 hours. The luminaire shall be operated
continuously in the appropriate UL 1598/153 environment or equivalent except when it is removed
to perform the LM-79 light output tests. If the light output determined at 6,000 hours is 96% of the
light output determined at 0 hours, the luminaire meets the simplified B20-L70 threshold for useful
life.
37
LED Site Performance method

a/ Perform lumen depreciation testing per LM-80-08 (or approved International equivalent) on the
light sources (s) (module/array) for a minimum of 6000 hours (longer testing period is encouraged).
Identify the installed (in luminaire) operating temperature of the LED using the Ts point under
operating ambient temperature of 50-degreesC. From this interpolated curve, determine the lamp
lumen depreciation (LLD) value and useful life that meets the needs of the site defined hours of
operation to end of useful life as well as the luminance level and uniformity required.

Project Performance Requirement - The following factors shall be applied to
determine the performance requirements for all luminaire types:
38
Light Loss Factors (LLF)

LLF = LLD x LDD (Lamp Lumen Depreciation x Luminaire Dirt Depreciation)
a/ Assume Lamp Lumen Depreciation (LLD) 0.70 for dedicated luminaires except where
recommended otherwise by the luminaire manufacturer. Assume the appropriate effects from
life/temperature on the lumen output of the luminaire. Note: For LED fixtures the figure used should
only match the stated Lumen Depreciation value given by the manufacturer for 50,000-hour
operation at minimum 50degreeC ambient temperature. Manufacturer shall provide data to
demonstrate the 50,000-hour lumen depreciation factor at the minimum 50degC temperature as
required by either the relevant Municipality or DoT. The method of calculation of lumen depreciation
for 50,000 hrs shall be reviewed and declared consistent with their data by the LED chip

Architectural Floodlighting
The illuminance requirements for open public realm spaces such as public squares and parks are
given in the above tables. Precise requirements for the architectural illuminance of buildings,
facades and structures cannot be given so specifically because the values are affected by many
more variables. However, the general recommendations of the below table are a useful starting
point and are DMA/DoT maximum average illuminance limits for design. Better design criteria
should be obtained and provided to either the relevant Municipality or DoT on the reflectance of the
surface material, its state of cleanliness and the district brightness; it is assumed that the building
surface is reasonably matt; specular finishes will require additional special consideration.
Version 0
Page 17

Successful building floodlighting depends on much more than achieving the recommended
maximum average illuminance and there is only an indirect relationship between illuminance,
luminance and the visual effect produced.
The simplified procedure comprises of 5 steps:
Approximate
Reflectance
Determination of required illuminance;

Choice of lamps and floodlights best suited to the project;
Calculation of the number and wattage of floodlights and/or architectural feature lights
needed to give the required illuminance;
Determination of best mounting positions for floodlights;
Specification of aiming directions for the floodlights.

Coloured Light Conversion Factors when using Filters

It is important to remember that the colour of surface material is accentuated if light of the same
colour is used. Also attractive effects are sometimes achieved by using light of different colours at
different times and/or in specific locations. The following table gives the factors by which the
calculated illuminance based upon white light, has to be increased in order to achieve the same
apparent value visually where coloured filters are proposed. These factors take into account the
fact that coloured light is more conspicuous but also the transmission losses of different filter
colours.
Where ever colour is proposed these are only general guidelines and it is always suggested to use
actual filter transmission values, physically test and if necessary mock-up the proposal before
finalizing the design and fixture specifications.

Coloured Light when using Coloured and RGB LEDs

Coloured LEDs, emit coloured light directly from the chip without additional filtering required. As
such the values obtained within lighting design software from luminaire photometry can accurately
compared against white light fixtures and the resultant illuminance and luminance figures a good
guide to effectiveness.
Conversion factors do not need to be applied as the outputs in all colours is achieved at 100% of
the rated outputs. However it is always suggested to physically test and if necessary mock-up any
coloured lighting solutions within the proposal before finalizing the design and fixture specifications.

LED Luminaire Requirements - The dedicated luminaire expected useful life (light
output) and Depreciation requirements for LED luminaires shall be as follows:
33
LED Useful Life Requirements

The useful life of the luminaire in terms of lumen output must be as specified by one of the following
two methods.
a/ As per LM-79-08 or approved International equivalent. Simplified B20-L70 threshold. A minimum
of 50,000 operating hours before reaching the B20-L70 lumen output degradation point with no
catastrophic failures. The B20-L70 lumen output must be capable of providing the luminance level
and uniformity.
b/ Site performance method. A life time of number of hours specified by the site based on
expected site lighting useful life must be capable of providing the luminance levels of uniformity.
34
LED Useful life testing and verification procedure

Simplified B20-L70 threshold. Perform LM-79-08 (or approved International equivalent) testing on
the luminaire at both time intervals of 0 hours and 6,000 hours. The luminaire shall be operated
continuously in the appropriate UL 1598/153 environment or equivalent except when it is removed
to perform the LM-79 light output tests. If the light output determined at 6,000 hours is 96% of the
light output determined at 0 hours, the luminaire meets the simplified B20-L70 threshold for useful
life.
35
LED Site Performance method

a/ Perform lumen depreciation testing per LM-80-08 (or approved International equivalent) on the
light sources (s) (module/array) for a minimum of 6000 hours (longer testing period is encouraged).
Identify the installed (in luminaire) operating temperature of the LED using the Ts point under
operating ambient temperature of 50-degreesC. From this interpolated curve, determine the lamp
lumen depreciation (LLD) value and useful life that meets the needs of the site defined hours of
operation to end of useful life as well as the luminance level and uniformity required.
Project Performance Requirement - The following factors shall be applied to

determine the performance requirements for all luminaire types:
36
Light Loss Factors (LLF)

LLF = LLD x LDD (Lamp Lumen Depreciation x Luminaire Dirt Depreciation)
a/ Assume Lamp Lumen Depreciation (LLD) 0.70 for dedicated luminaires except where
recommended otherwise by the luminaire manufacturer. Assume the appropriate effects from

life/temperature on the lumen output of the luminaire. Note: For LED fixtures the figure used should
only match the stated Lumen Depreciation value given by the manufacturer for 50,000-hour
operation at minimum 50degreeC ambient temperature. Manufacturer shall provide data to
demonstrate the 50,000-hour lumen depreciation factor at the minimum 50degC temperature as
required by the client. The method of calculation of lumen depreciation for 50,000 hrs shall be
reviewed and declared consistent with their data by the LED chip manufacturer.
b/ Assume Luminaire Dirt Depreciation (LDD) using appropriate and stated depreciation factors to
suit actual environment and resistance properties of the specific fixture.
