The Electricity Supply Act 1995 (NSW) requires Endeavour Energy to provide lighting services in accordance with the Australian/New Zealand Standard for Lighting for Roads and Public Spaces (AS/NZS 1158) (Australian Standard).
The Australian Standard sets the requirements for the design, installation, and the safe and appropriate operation of public lighting assets within the community. This includes the level of illumination to be provided by the lights, the colour temperature of the lights as well as where and how lamps and poles are to be positioned along certain sections of road (for example, at curves, bends, roundabouts, and pedestrian crossings).
All lighting maintained by Endeavour Energy complies with the Australian Standards and has been tested to ensure this compliance.
