Plans and Specifications

Temporary lighting plans should show:
  • the type and number of units required
  • locations, spacings, and offsets of poles
  • bracket and pole details
  • electrical connection details, such as:
    • electrical services
    • conduit and wire or cord runs
    • strain pole connections and guys (if used)
    • breakaway disconnects (if used).
Temporary lighting should be coordinated with traffic control plans, which should show where and when the poles are to be placed or relocated.
Specifications for fixtures, wiring, poles, and services should be included with the plans when non-standard items are used. Ensure that circuit voltage drop is compatible with the types of fixtures selected.
