Pr 402- Abu Dhabi Lighting Manual

To summarize the scope, key requirements, and recommended actions for compliance with PR 402 (Abu Dhabi lighting standards) for building lighting design, energy efficiency, and occupant comfort.

Abu Dhabi’s extreme climate and delicate desert ecosystems require specific engineering safeguards. PR-402 incorporates stringent environmental mandates to address these challenges. Ingress Protection (IP) and Mechanical Impact (IK) Ratings

PR-402 does not operate in isolation. It works in conjunction with other critical Abu Dhabi Emirate Guidelines: Public Realm Design Manual (PRDM). ROW-603: Urban Street Design Manual (USDM). pr 402- abu dhabi lighting manual

PR 402 works in tandem with the Estidama Pearl Rating System. To summarize the scope, key requirements, and recommended

High-speed highways require higher luminance levels (e.g., Class M1 or M2), whereas quiet residential streets utilize lower classes (e.g., Class M5). 2. Pedestrian and Conflict Areas (C and P Classes)

Assisting contractors, consultants, and engineers in aligning lighting design with surrounding infrastructure, such as landscaping and signage. 2. Technical Standards for Roadway and Parking Lighting Ingress Protection (IP) and Mechanical Impact (IK) Ratings

Max bracket arm length of 1.5m; max luminaire tilt of 5 degrees from horizontal.

: It defines specific luminance levels for different road types: Highways/Freeways (100Kph+): (30 lux in conflict areas). Major Arterials (80Kph): (30 lux in conflict areas and crosswalks). Residential/Parking: Standardized lux levels based on road class. Structural Requirements
