Currently, the maintenance of LED solar street lights involves many related aspects, including facility maintenance and equipment repair. These are daily maintenance tasks required for LED solar street lights.
Maintenance of LED solar street light facilities. Compared to ordinary street lights, LED solar street lights have more specific and complex requirements in terms of design and installation. Their maintenance also has special requirements. Taking solar panels as an example, regular maintenance includes checking the azimuth of the solar panels; ensuring there are no branches or leaves blocking them; verifying they are not in the shadow of other objects; inspecting the surface for cracks, dust buildup, or dirt; and examining if there are any cracks in the solar cells and whether the connections are intact. The maintenance of batteries poses additional challenges. Equipment such as solar batteries is usually installed within the lamp post base, making it impossible to install large electrical access doors for repair or replacement. Consequently, the base must be enlarged, and for maintenance or replacement, the lamp post is typically removed and suspended, then reinstalled after the work is completed. Currently, the normal lifespan of batteries is 2 to 3 years, and during this period, regular checks must be conducted on the charging and discharging status of the batteries, along with monitoring for corrosion or poor connections. It is easy to imagine the magnitude of this engineering task.
The illumination devices of LED solar street lights are much more complex than sodium lamps, consisting of not just battery panels but also controllers, inverters, and light control devices. To ensure the continuous operation of solar lighting devices, inspections and maintenance are typically conducted on a weekly basis. Each device should be checked at least once during the day and at night, and immediate inspections are required after strong winds, heavy rain, snow, or rainy seasons to determine if the solar panels have shifted (if a panel falls, it can cause safety accidents), and to check if there is water ingress or pooling in the control room and battery storage. After thunderstorms, it is crucial to verify that the devices are functioning properly and that the charging and discharging controllers are undamaged, among other aspects. An annual inspection in the fall is also necessary, particularly for cleaning and wiping the transparent parts of the lighting fixtures and solar panels. If the main issues regarding the photoelectric conversion rate, battery size, and lifespan in the solar lighting system are not resolved, the maintenance workload will greatly exceed that of high-pressure sodium lamps.
