The significant technical changes that have been made in this Standard in relation to the 2005 edition include the following:
(a) Separation of previous Table 2.6 into the differing requirements for lighting of ‘local roads’ and ‘cyclist paths’.
(b) Clarification of glare requirements for high intensity discharge luminaires and new requirements for SSL light sources.
(c) Additional and revised layout rules for typical road layouts.
(d) Additional information relating to SSL light sources.
(e) Additional requirements for surround illuminance.
(f) Updated data on the specification of minimum ingress protection requirements for various maintenance factors and requirements regarding assumed and actual maintenance regimes and maintenance intervals.
(g) Additional lighting level for lighting of external car parking areas.
(h) New requirements relating to energy measures if required.
(i) Additional option for specifying minimum environmental spill levels for local roads.
This joint Standard is intended to be applied in its entirety in Australia and New Zealand; however, a number of differences exist with respect to the requirements that apply in each country. These are indicated by the qualification ‘In Australia’ or ‘In New Zealand’, or similar.
The terms ‘normative’ and ‘informative’ have been used in this Standard to define the application of the appendix to which they apply. A ‘normative’ appendix is an integral part of a Standard, whereas an ‘informative’ appendix is only for information and guidance.
Statements expressed in mandatory terms in footnotes to tables are deemed to be requirements of this Standard.
AS NZS 1158.3.1 2020 specifies performance and design requirements for Category P lighting schemes as described in AS/NZS 1158.0. It also specifies the luminaire data and other data that is needed to facilitate the lighting design and the assessment of conformance to the requirements of this Standard.
