IDGC of Centre — Yarenergo division is completing the reconstruction of street lighting in Assumption square of Uglich. Modern energy efficient equipment, installed by power engineers in the square, emphasizes the visual appeal of the historical building while reducing energy costs.
Specialists of Uglich District of Electrical Networks (Distribution Zone) of Yarenergo removed the old equipment and installed hexagon metal poles in the square, installed 150W LED lighting fixtures and self-supporting insulated wire (SIW). Just to create the new lighting system the power engineers used 12 poles, 24 lighting fixtures and 1 km of SIW. In addition, a street lighting control cabinet was installed at the facility, which allows to adjust light levels based on real needs. Each pole has two lighting fixtures, one of which will turn off automatically at night.
