What problems should we pay attention to when using solar street lamps in summer?

In the lighting project, solar street lamps play a more and more important role in outdoor lighting because of their convenient construction and free from the trouble of mains wiring. Compared with ordinary street lamp products, solar street lamp can well save electricity and daily expenses, which is very beneficial for people using it. However, some problems should be paid attention to when using solar street lamps in summer, as follows:

1. Temperature effect

With the arrival of summer, the storage of lithium batteries will also be affected by the sharp rise in temperature. Especially after sunshine, if there is thunderstorm, regular inspection and maintenance are required. If the capacity of the lithium battery cannot meet the use requirements, it shall be replaced in time to avoid affecting the normal operation of the solar street lamp. As the core component of solar street lamp, the controller must check its waterproof performance. Open the door at the bottom of the solar street lamp, take out the controller of the solar street lamp, and check whether the connector has adhesive tape falling off, poor contact, water seepage, etc. Once the above problems are found, corresponding measures shall be taken to correct them and eliminate potential safety hazards as soon as possible. There is plenty of rain in summer. Although the rain usually does not directly enter the lamp post, the It will cause short circuit when the rain evaporates into steam in hot weather. In rainy season, we should pay more attention to special situations to prevent unnecessary damage.

2. Weather influence

Most of China has a subtropical monsoon climate. Convective weather often occurs in summer. Rainfall, thunderstorms and typhoons often occur. This is a real challenge for those street lamps with high altitude and relatively weak foundation. The solar street lamp panel is loose, the lamp cap falls, and the lamp pole inclines from time to time, which not only affects the normal lighting work, but also brings great security risks to pedestrians and vehicles in densely populated areas. The safety performance inspection and maintenance of solar street lamps should be completed in advance, which can greatly avoid the occurrence of the above adverse events. Check the overall condition of the solar street lamp to see whether the battery panel and lamp cap are loose, whether the street lamp is tilted, and whether the bolts are firm. If this happens, it should be eliminated in time to avoid accidents.

3. Tree impact

Nowadays, our country pays more attention to greening projects, resulting in many solar street lamp projects being affected by greening projects. In summer thunderstorm weather, trees near solar street lamps are easy to be blown down, damaged or directly damaged by strong winds. Therefore, trees around solar street lamps should be pruned regularly, especially in the case of wild growth of plants in summer. Ensuring the stable growth of trees can reduce the damage to solar street lamps caused by dumping trees.

The above questions about the use of solar street lamps in summer are shared here. If you find that the solar street lamps are not lit in summer, in fact, in addition to the problems of street lamps aging, long battery use, and poor product quality, there is also a possibility that the sun exposure and lightning in summer may cause problems in the battery, controller and other locations of solar street lamps. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the solar street lamps and conduct regular inspection and maintenance in summer.
