Abstract :
The design of street lighting networks in electric distribution companies has always been associated with its own challenges due to two aspects in terms of meeting the requirements of street lighting calculations and electrical analyzes and the need for economic analysis and cost-effectiveness on the other hand. It is considered different from the preparation of ordinary plans in technical departments. The most important reason for this complexity is the lack of access to optimal design tables considering all design parameters related to lighting and electrical parts in compliance with the necessary standards, so that currently each lighting project must have an independent study. In this study, actual conditions of street lighting networks are taken into account, including the type of network, conductors, etc. It should be consistent with the reality of the electricity industry and not just academic. By the simulation in Dialux evo and DIGSilent Power Factory software, comprehensive optimal design tables according to the type of light, network conductor, network configuration, maximum length of lighting networks and minimum capacity of transformer resulting in the range of standard voltage quality and acceptable loading range of distribution substations, These tables can help designers and, at a high level, decision-makers in technical subjects.
