Key points of school playground lighting design

In the school playground, lighting is not only to light up a sports field, but also to provide students with a comfortable and beautiful sports environment. In order to meet the needs of school playground lighting, it is very important to choose a suitable lighting lamp. Coupled with professional lighting design and lighting solutions, it can better ensure the safety and quality of students’ sports.

Stadium high mast lightsTianxiang, an outdoor lighting service provider, has accumulated rich practical experience in the planning and implementation in school playground high masts projects. In view of the particularity of school playgrounds, we deeply integrate optical design, safety standards and campus environment, and can provide solutions from pole height customization (8-25 meters flexible adaptation), anti-glare treatment to intelligent light control system. The product adopts high-strength hot-dip galvanized lamp poles and high-efficiency LED light sources, with both typhoon-resistant structural design and energy-saving and environmental protection characteristics. It has been verified by track and field projects of many universities and colleges, and can achieve professional-grade sports lighting standards with a uniformity of ≥0.7, effectively avoiding light interference to surrounding teaching areas.

For the needs of school playground lighting, LED lights have become the best choice. Compared with traditional fluorescent lamps, LED lamps have higher brightness and longer service life. In the school playground, sufficient brightness is essential to improve students’ visual experience and sports safety. The high brightness and uniform lighting of LED lamps can ensure balanced lighting of the entire track and field, reduce light flickering and shadows, and prevent students from visual impairment during sports.

Good school playground lighting can improve the visibility and aesthetics of the sports venue. First of all, according to the size and shape of the track and field, it is necessary to arrange the location and number of lighting equipment reasonably. Through reasonable layout, the lighting can cover the entire track and field, so that every corner is properly illuminated. Secondly, the color temperature and color reproduction index of the lighting should be considered. Appropriate color temperature can provide a comfortable visual experience, while good color reproduction can truly restore the skin color and clothing color of students. Finally, the illumination and light distribution of the light also need to be adjusted according to different areas of the track and field to ensure that each area has sufficient lighting intensity.

School playground high masts

Take the 400-meter school playground as an example

1. Lighting selection:

Use high-intensity LED lighting fixtures, which have the advantages of high brightness, long life and low energy consumption. Install high masts at the four corners of the track and field to ensure that the lighting can cover the entire runway.

2. Lighting layout:

The lighting fixtures should be evenly distributed on the high masts around the track and field to ensure uniform lighting of the entire runway.

3. Lighting level:

The lighting level should meet international sports standards, usually between 300 and 800 lux, to ensure that students have enough brightness on the runway.

4. Control system:

Install an automatic lighting control system to automatically adjust the lighting brightness according to the light intensity and time to achieve energy saving.

5. Maintenance:

Establish a regular maintenance plan to ensure the normal operation of the lighting system.

School playground lighting should be able to meet the requirements of sports venues, provide good visual effects, and take into account energy saving and environmental protection. It is best to cooperate with professional lighting designers during the design process to ensure the best results.
