: Facilitating immediate and accurate visibility for night-time motorists and pedestrians.
The manual strictly regulates the color appearance of light to prevent harsh, institutional atmospheres and protect nocturnal ecosystems.
: Street and tunnel lighting fixtures must come with a minimum 10-year full warranty Operational Guidelines pr 402- abu dhabi lighting manual
The PR-402 manual introduced strict, almost poetic, geometric constraints. The Silhouette Effect:
Today, the PR-402 manual is not just on a bookshelf; it is alive on every street, tunnel, and underpass in Abu Dhabi. It is the quiet force that ensures when the sun sets, Abu Dhabi does not just turn on the lights—it paints with them. Key Technical Pillars: ADQCC Lighting Standard Application Focus: Roadway and Parking Safety AI responses may include mistakes. Learn more The Silhouette Effect: Today, the PR-402 manual is
: Mandating energy-efficient LED technologies and smart control systems to reduce environmental impact. Technical Specifications and Design Criteria
: Standardized Correlated Color Temperatures (CCT) are restricted to 2700K, 3000K, and 4000K. Physical Installations Pole Clearance : Minimum clear area of 1000mm around the pole center. Wind Resistance : Foundations must withstand velocities of 160 km/h. Learn more : Mandating energy-efficient LED technologies and
Establishes precise luminance levels to optimize immediate, glare-free visibility for motorist and pedestrian corridors alike.
PR-402 does not exist in isolation. It is deeply integrated into Abu Dhabi's broader sustainability and green building ecosystem.
Conventional high-pressure sodium (HPS) or metal halide lamps are no longer permitted. Only high-efficiency LED luminaires are approved.
Compliance with PR-402 is enforced at multiple stages of a project’s lifecycle and across various approval checkpoints.
