About this file

This is a technical specification section for exterior lighting systems for the P-1550 SOF Marine Raider Battalion/Company/Team Facilities project (eProjects WON: 1701820, dated 8 May 2026, revised 4 June 2026).

The specification establishes comprehensive requirements for LED luminaires, lighting controls, poles, and related equipment for exterior facility lighting. Luminaires must meet minimum efficacy standards ranging from 30 lumens per watt (steplights) to 119 lumens per watt (area and roadway), with L70 lumen maintenance of at least 50,000 hours per ANSI/IES standards. Housing must be constructed of non-corrosive materials with baked-on enamel, anodized, or powder-coat finishes capable of surviving 2,500 hours of ASTM B117 salt fog testing. LED drivers must be constant-current type, UL Class 1 or Class 2, with power factor greater than 0.90, total harmonic distortion less than 20 percent, and integral surge protection meeting IEEE C62.41.2 elevated requirements. Light sources must emit 4000 Kelvin white light with minimum color rendering index of 80 and RoHS compliance. The specification requires ANSI/IES LM-79, LM-80, and TM-21 test reports from NVLAP-accredited laboratories or EPA-recognized labs. Lighting controls include photosensors, time clocks with astronomic programming, and lighting contactors, with dimming panel capability and BACnet compatibility. Aluminum poles must meet AASHTO LTS standards for 150 mph wind loading, use corrosion-resistant alloys (6063-T6, 6005-T5, or 356-T4), and include internal grounding connections. Warranty requirements include five-year minimum coverage for luminaires and lighting controls, and three-year coverage for poles, with replacements shipped at no charge. Submittals requiring government approval include shop drawings, product data, test reports, and operation/maintenance documentation. Installation must comply with manufacturer instructions, and field quality control requires 72 hours of continuous operation without failures. Training plans for maintenance staff and end-users must be submitted at least 30 days prior to training sessions.

1.2 RELATED REQUIREMENTS

Materials not considered to be luminaires, luminaire accessories, or lighting equipment are specified in Section(s) 33 71 02 UNDERGROUND ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION . Luminaires and accessories installed in interior of buildings or attached to the exterior of a building are specified in Section 26 51 00 INTERIOR LIGHTING.

1.3 DEFINITIONS

a. Unless otherwise specified or indicated, electrical and electronics terms used in these specifications and on the drawings must be as defined in IEEE 100 and ANSI/IES LS-1 .

b. For LED luminaire light sources, "Useful Life" is the operating hours before reaching 70 percent of the initial rated lumen output (L70) with no catastrophic failures under normal operating conditions. This is also known as 70 percent "Rated Lumen Maintenance Life" as defined in ANSI/IES LM-80 .

SECTION 26 56 00 Page 4

c. For LED luminaires, "Luminaire Efficacy" (LE) is the appropriate measure of energy efficiency, measured in lumens/watt. This is gathered from LM-79 data for the luminaire, in which absolute photometry is used to measure the lumen output of the luminaire as one entity, not the source separately and then the source and housing together.

d. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the Root Mean Square (RMS) of all the harmonic components divided by the total fundamental current.
