High pressure sodium floodlight
Figure 2: High pressure sodium flood-
light, 46-82 lux, in well lit street.
Meets TR11 and NZS 6701.
Mercury vapour floodlight
Figure 3: Mercury vapour floodlight,
11-24 lux. Fails NZS 6701 - light
output is too low.
Metal Halide floodlight
Figure 4: Metal Halide floodlight,
39-75 lux, excellent light distribution
over the crossing and on the footpath
at each end of the crossing. Meets NZS
6701.

Halogen Floodlight
Figure 6: Halogen Floodlight, 12-72 lux.
The floodlight on the right is aimed too
high to correctly illuminate the crossing
and footpath on that side. Fails NZS
6701 because of floodlight misalignment.
