Hi all. Does anyone have any tips for car park lighting. I am designing a large car park, with approx 50no. 70W lights. I have had a design back from a lighting manufacturer with lux plots etc. As the car park is so large approx 200m x 70 m, I will be installing 3no. feeder pillars with a distribution board in each to reduce long runs of cable. As the lighting will be in rows of 6, I was going to have each row (6 lights) on one circuit fed by a 6amp type C mcb. Inside each lighting column I was going to install a 2 way consumer unit, thereby enabling each light can be independently isolated, should any maintenance need to be carried out on it without affecting the other lights on the circuit.

I was wondering if any one had any suggestions. I have seen a few car park lighting schemes where each light was fed independently on its own circuit, I assume this was done to limit any disruption should a fault occur or maybe due to how the car park was laid out but I feel it would be much easier in my case to have all the lights on one row on the same circuit as I will also be coordinating the duct work installation.

Many Thanks
