Technical Deep Dive: PR 402 – The Abu Dhabi Lighting Manual

The PR 402 Abu Dhabi Lighting Design Manual (Version 3.0, July 2021) acts as the primary regulatory document for infrastructure lighting, focusing on energy efficiency and sustainability. It defines stringent standards for LED color temperature, durable materials, and specific lighting classes for roadways and tunnels to enhance safety and reduce power consumption. View the document for more information on the Scribd PR-402 lighting manual .

Case Example: Al Hudayriat Island

  • Use LED luminaires with appropriate efficacy and dimming capability.
  • Implement daylight harvesting in perimeter zones and provide manual override.
  • Zone lighting by occupancy and function to reduce wasted energy.
  • Use shielded fixtures and timers/curfews for façade and landscape lighting.
  • Specify CRI ≥80 for most spaces; CRI ≥90 for retail, galleries, and medical exam areas.
  • Target CCT: 2700–3000K for hospitality/residential, 3000–4000K for offices and retail.

After installation, a photometric field test is mandatory. The contractor must provide a test report using a calibrated luminance meter, comparing five random points to the design predictions. Tolerances: ± 7% for L avg; ± 10% for E min. pr 402- abu dhabi lighting manual
