How to install a high pole light? Many friends who have installed streetlights might think that installing a high pole light is an easy task, as the only difference between the two is height. However, we must not forget that the difficulty in installing high pole lights primarily stems from the challenge of aligning them properly.
Many who have installed standard streetlights often apply the same methods when handling high pole lights. This usually results in the successful installation of the high pole lights, but aligning them becomes a very challenging task.
This statement is not alarmist; many operators have encountered situations where, after positioning the entire unit, the time taken from assembly to installation is only about four hours. Yet, once it comes to the subsequent alignment issues, many inexperienced installers can easily waste three to four hours without achieving proper alignment of the high pole light.
For professional installers, correcting this alignment is relatively straightforward. However, it is precisely their practical experience that allows them to master the alignment of high pole lights with such ease. For those of us who have never dealt with alignment tasks, it can feel like an uphill battle.
After all, for those who have not installed such large high pole lights before, these heavy lights differ significantly from the smaller streetlights previously installed, which could be adjusted easily by any strong individual. Generally, the weight of a high pole light is such that even a group of five people would struggle to make significant adjustments.
So, how can we better handle the alignment task? The answer is quite simple. Before lifting the light, we should first screw a nut onto the threaded rod of the embedded part of the foundation to ensure the nut is positioned as high as possible. We then rely on adjusting the nut to achieve proper alignment of the high pole light.
