All street lights shall be designed and constructed to meet the following:
1. 
Cable shall be copper or aluminum continuous run, no splices — six (6) gauge — six hundred (600) volts — two (2) conductor, a "T" splice per utility's standard No. 41153100 can be used to avoid running the cable up and down the pole. Cable shall be encased in no less than one (1) inch conduit and buried a minimum of twenty-four (24) inches deep. All sweeps must be no less than twenty-four (24) inch radius. At the point of connection, pad-mounted transformers, wire must be extended six (6) feet above grade and terminate at pad at point of connection. Pole-mounted wire must extend thirty (30) feet above grade and terminate at the pole.
2. 
Fixtures must be Streetworks MPW Woodbridge (Part #MPW-A5-D-U-ASYM-7030-4N7E-BK) or approved equal. Light shall be 3000K and produce 5,065 lumens. The color shall match the color of the support post.
3. 
Support Post: pole, street light, fiberglass, seventeen (17) foot in length, with three (3) inches diameter times three and one-half (3 1/2) inches steel or aluminum tenon on top, one and one-half (1 1/2) inches diameter wiring hole two (2) feet from bottom. Pole must be set in a twelve (12) inch diameter plastic culvert pipe. Pole must be backfilled with compacted screenings. Conduit should extend to twelve (12) inches above plastic culvert pipe.
Construction: pole shall be constructed of fiberglass filaments wound on a mandrel in both circular and longitudinal directions in combination with a corrosion-resistance polyester resin. The resin shall be pigmented to match the final coating. The final coating shall be weather-resistant polyurethane paint with UV inhibitors. Surface finish is textured. Bottom shall be "out of round" to prevent rotation of the pole in the ground.
4. 
Color shall be black.

Strength: When installed to a three-foot setting depth, the pole shall be able to withstand a four hundred seventy-five (475) pound horizontal load applied twelve (12) inches from the top without damage. Limestone screening shall be used to install, shall be wetted and thoroughly tamped to provide solid compaction around the pole.
6. 
Hand Hole shall be furnished with a two and one-half (2 1/2) inch by five (5) inch hand hole with corrosion-resistant cover and stainless steel fasteners located five (5) feet from the bottom. The top of the conduit encasing cable must extend above ground to a height of not less than twelve (12) inches below the bottom of the hand hole on the pole.

Breakaway Fuses. Individual street lights shall be equipped with Ideal SLK® Disconnect Fuse Kit 30-S1212 or an equivalent and the fuse be relocated in a Marconi UPCBD3 enclosure with a MS1342 single mount stake or equivalent.
