Frequently Asked Questions

What Goes into Successful High Mast Lighting Design?

A high mast lighting design or calculation considers many things. Two include the height of existing poles (if any), or if you want pole location recommendations.
  • How many lights per pole?
  • What type of lighting are you replacing?
  • What are the expected light levels?
  • Are there any requirements, specifications, or guidelines that need to be met?
Using a CAD drawing or a Google Maps screenshot, a high mast lighting design can incorporate all the considerations. It gives a visual report of the light levels within the area, and how balanced the light across the space will be.
