Choosing the right lamp for the stadium requires comprehensive consideration of lighting standards, energy saving, durability, installation costs, and the needs of specific sports. The following are professional suggestions in steps:

1. Clarify lighting needs
Sports type: Different sports have different lighting standards. For example:
Football/rugby: horizontal illumination ≥200 lux (amateur competition) to ≥750 lux (professional competition), with high uniformity requirements.
Basketball/tennis: vertical illumination is more important (≥300 lux) to avoid glare affecting the athlete’s vision.
Multi-functional stadium: multiple standards need to be taken into account, and it is recommended to choose dimmable lamps.
Use scenario: amateur training, professional competition or commercial activities? Professional competitions must meet international standards (such as FIFA, NBA, etc.).
2. Choose the type of lamp
LED lamp (recommended):
Advantages: high energy efficiency (energy saving of more than 50%), long life (more than 50,000 hours), instant start, no flicker.
Color temperature: Choose 4000K-5000K neutral white light to balance color rendering (Ra>80) and visual comfort.
Metal halide lamp (traditional choice):
Suitable for projects with limited budgets, but slow to start, short life (about 10,000 hours), and need to be replaced regularly.
3. Key points of technical parameters
Illumination and uniformity:
Horizontal illuminance (Eh) and vertical illuminance (Ev) must meet the standards, and uniformity (Uh/Uv) is recommended to be ≥0.7.
Use professional software (such as DIALux) to simulate lighting solutions.
Anti-glare design:
Choose lamps with shading hoods or asymmetric light distribution to reduce interference with athletes and spectators.
Protection level:
Outdoor stadiums must be IP65 and above (dustproof and waterproof), and wind pressure resistance ≥40m/s.
4. Installation and layout
Light pole height and spacing:
Football field light poles are usually 15-20 meters high, and the spacing is 3-4 times the height of the pole; basketball courts can be reduced to 8-12 meters.
Avoid shadow areas, and four-corner lighting or symmetrical lighting on both sides are common solutions.
Intelligent control:
With light sensing + timing control system, adjust the brightness as needed (such as training mode/game mode).
5. Budget and maintenance
Initial cost: LED lamps have high unit prices but high long-term returns (power saving + low maintenance).
Maintenance convenience: Choose modular design lamps to facilitate quick replacement of parts.
Final recommendation: Give priority to high color rendering LED lamps, combined with professional lighting design to ensure compliance with sports standards and control long-term costs. If a specific plan is required, the size and purpose of the court can be provided for further optimization.
