Rural roads and township roads suitable for the installation of solar street lights

First, let's analyze the characteristics of rural roads: 

1. The road is narrow. Rural road width is generally not too wide, mostly in the 4-6 meters, barely able to let two cars can meet. Some even only in a specific place to meet. 

2. Installed to the budget is not enough, the light spacing is generally relatively large. Rural road budget is generally lower, so the number of street lights installed will not be in accordance with the national standard requirements for the layout, the national standard stipulates that the spacing is 3-3.5 times the height of the light source, the rural generally to reach more than 5 times. 

3. Rural road terrain is complex. Many areas of rural housing construction lack of unified planning, so the distribution is relatively scattered, and the road to try to take care of farmers, it may be necessary to choose a site on a different terrain; coupled with the complexity of China's terrain, so creating a complex and varied roads.

Second, the disadvantages of installing ordinary utility streetlights on rural roads

1. These characteristics of rural roads can cause difficulties in the wiring and siting of ordinary utility streetlights. Although a very long equal spacing will reduce the number of installed lights, the length of wiring will not be reduced as a result. Moreover, the wiring requires a certain distance from the roadside, which makes it difficult for the rural roads, which are relatively narrow in themselves. Complicated terrain such as high and low undulations of the road and large curves can also cause certain difficulties for wiring.

2. Additional costs may be added. Some rural roads are too remote, the distance is too far, you may need to equip the street lights with transformers and build transformer stations, which will greatly increase the additional engineering costs.

3. The party responsible for the electricity bill is unclear. Some roads have an exclusive source of money for street lighting, but the electricity bill needs to be funded by the people, which is fine in the more affluent places, but in some remote mountainous areas, the young people have gone out to work, leaving very little income for the elderly, so it is difficult to collect the money.

To sum up, there are still some difficulties in installing ordinary mains street lights on rural roads. Of course, economically developed areas, road planning is better, the budget is sufficient, the installation of ordinary utility street lights is a good choice.
