The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recently published ANSI C136.58-2019, called “Luminaire Four-Pin Extension Module and Receptacle—Physical and Electrical Interchangeability and Testing.” This standard provides mechanical and electrical specifications for interfacing street and area lighting with controls and sensor accessories. It was developed for use by roadway and area lighting manufacturers, municipalities, and utilities.
“The new ANSI C136.58 Standard will allow our industry to use the Zhaga Book 18 interface for installation or removal of various types of sensors on our LED outdoor lighting luminaires,” says Kevin Fitzmaurice, principle engineer, lighting and smart services for Georgia Power and chair of the ANSI roadway and area lighting committee.
