Cost Calculator
* Results show approx Cost of Poles and Streetlights only, for Planning, Budget purposes. Note this cost is a quick estimator and excludes both Installation costs (Concrete Bases for Poles, electrical wiring, etc) and VAT. If not VAT registered, then 20% UK VAT should be added to the cost. Based on a Straight Line so for a Walkway around a Pitch, calculate each straight stretch individually.

Planning Permission?
Planning Permission will be required for New Projects. We can produce any Lighting Calculation (Lighting Design) in the Format required by Local Authorities.
The difference is mainly a Format issue, but specific issues, example – showing Lighting Spill outside the Pitch or onto nearby Properties etc may be required.
Install?
NOTE: We do not install.
VeeLite is a Lighting Design and Manufacturing Company. We will design a suitable scheme that meets Lighting Standards and supply the Equipment to site – namely, the Lights and often the Poles.
Solar?
In general – Yes, but you need to consider the following:
- Solar Lighting is more expensive than standard electric lighting – typically the Lighting Equipment is 3 times the cost. This is based on achieving recommended light levels.
- Solar will not work if the area is shaded from the Sun.
- Achieving Lighting in mid Winter (December, January) is more expensive than during the Summer.
- Solar is not economic if the Mains Electric supply is already nearby and accessible.
Light Levels?
This lighting Category covers most Walkways, Pathways, and narrow roads for the exclusive use of Pedestrians only, Cyclists only or both, or all together with Motorised Traffic.
The Light levels required are listed from P1 (highest) to P6 (lowest). P1 light levels will often mean Motorised Traffic, or busy traffic, at higher speeds etc. Lower standards such as P6 would often indicate Pedestrian or Cycle traffic only, at lower speeds and only occasional traffic.
Average Light levels required (on the horizontal) are 15 Lux Average (P1), 10 Lux (P2), 7.5 Lux (P3), 5 Lux (P4), 3 Lux (P5) and 2 Lux Average (P6). In all cases, minimum/average uniformity of 40% is required.
