: Reducing the carbon footprint of municipal infrastructure by enforcing the use of high-efficacy luminaires and smart control systems.
To prevent harsh, sterile environments, PR-402 mandates specific Correlated Color Temperatures (CCT) and Color Rendering Index (CRI) values:
Failing to calculate the Depreciation Factor based on Abu Dhabi's high-dust environment, leading to dim systems over time.
To combat dark-sky degradation, PR 402 enforces a for the vast majority of outdoor fixtures. Streetlights must be fully cut-off, directing 100% of their light downward to prevent light spill into the atmosphere or adjacent residential windows. Smart Controls and Dimming
By enforcing the PR-402 manual, Abu Dhabi ensures its world-class urban infrastructure remains safe, resilient to climate extremes, and sustainable for generations to come. To help you apply these guidelines effectively, tell me:
The manual heavily favors a correlated color temperature of 3000K to 4000K for most public areas, balancing visual acuity with a welcoming nocturnal atmosphere.
Introduction to PR-402: The Abu Dhabi Lighting Standards The Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council (UPC) and the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) established the PR-402 Abu Dhabi Lighting Manual to govern public realm illumination. This document serves as a mandatory regulatory framework for developers, engineers, and urban planners. It ensures that all outdoor lighting installations across the Emirate align with Abu Dhabi’s Vision 2030 sustainability, safety, and aesthetic mandates.
: A minimum clear area of 1000mm is required on either side of a pole center, typically composed of hardscape or gravel. Equipment Protection
If you want, I can:
Conventional high-pressure sodium (HPS) or metal halide lamps are no longer permitted. Only high-efficiency LED luminaires are approved.
PR 402 is a section of the framework (the Arabic word for "sustainability"), which governs development in Abu Dhabi. While many professionals are familiar with the Pearl Rating System for buildings, PR 402 specifically addresses the technical and aesthetic requirements for exterior lighting.
Abu Dhabi is a city that transforms after dark. From the shimmering façades of Yas Island to the cultural majesty of the Saadiyat Cultural District, the emirate’s nighttime identity is as vital as its daytime architecture.
