South Africa High Mast Solar Lighting Project with Six Solar Lights

For this outdoor lighting project in South Africa, Inbrit developed a customized solar lighting configuration using the customer’s existing 12–20 meter light mast poles.

Each pole was equipped with six solar lighting fixtures, together with 270W solar panels and 25.6V 48Ah battery systems, creating an independent solar-powered solution for large-area outdoor lighting.

Project Configuration

Customized Six-Light High Mast Configuration

Instead of using a single conventional high-power luminaire, this project uses six solar lighting units arranged around one high mast structure.

The multi-light arrangement allows the lighting direction to be distributed around the pole, making the solution suitable for wider outdoor areas where illumination is required in several directions.

The project uses Inbrit's BRETT all-in-one solar street light solution in a customized configuration. BRETT is designed as an integrated solar lighting system combining the solar panel, LED light, battery and controller.

Using Customer-Owned 12–20m Poles

One of the key requirements of this project was adapting the solar lighting system to the customer’s existing pole infrastructure.

Rather than supplying a standard pole-and-light package, Inbrit configured the lighting system around the existing 12–20m poles.

This demonstrates how a project-specific solar lighting solution can be adapted to different existing structures when the pole condition, mounting system and engineering requirements are suitable.

Solar Power and Battery Configuration

The project combines 270W solar panels with 25.6V 48Ah batteries to support independent night-time lighting.

Solar panel capacity, battery storage, lighting power and operating schedule need to be considered together when designing an off-grid lighting system.

Night-Time Lighting Effect

The project photos show the completed high mast system operating at night, with the six lighting fixtures illuminating the surrounding outdoor area from an elevated position.

For projects like this, the final configuration should be based on actual site dimensions, mounting height, required coverage and operating conditions rather than fixture wattage alone.

Suitable Applications

This type of customized solar high mast lighting solution can be considered for large outdoor areas such as roads, open public spaces, industrial areas, compounds and remote sites where grid-powered infrastructure may be limited.
