Introduction
The Eco-design Directive 2009/125/EC requires a reduction of energy consumption of fluorescent lamps
without integrated ballast, for high intensity discharge lamps, for LED light sources, and for ballasts and
luminaires able to operate such lamps and light sources.
Utilance is a measurement of the efficiency of the luminous intensity distribution of a luminaire to spread
its luminous flux onto a specified surface provided other quality requirements of EN 13201 series are
met.
There are many lighting solutions that can satisfy the road lighting criteria specified in EN 13201-2. To
design these solutions, photometric data of the equipment is required.
The use and application of utilance can serve as a tool for the pre-selection of adequate luminaires to
fulfil the lighting requirements of EN 13201-2.
The knowledge of the utilance road lighting is needed for the calculation of the installation luminous
efficacy as described in EN 13201-5.
This document specifies the presentation of tables of utilances and utilization factors of luminaires used
for road lighting.
Utilance is used in place of utilization factors because it can be applied to luminaires with replaceable or
non-replaceable lamps/light sources.

Note 1 to entry: “Along the road” is considered parallel to that of the kerb following in the same direction as any
adjacent luminaires.
4 Utilances road lighting and utilization factor road lighting
4.1 General
In this standard the average illuminance on a reference area, a longitudinal strip of a road, representing,
for example, the carriageway, a single lane, a cycle path, or a footpath, can be calculated as:
−−11
EU= ⋅⋅f Φ ⋅ W⋅ S (1)
rl M Lum
where
is the maintained average illuminance in lx on the strip under consideration;
E
U is the utilance road lighting:
rl
f is the overall maintenance factor;
M
ϕ is the luminaire luminous flux in lm;
Lum
W is the width of reference area, in m;
S is the luminaire spacing in m.
NOTE If the luminaire luminous flux is not known it can be determined from the knowledge of the total
luminous flux of the light sources in the luminaire and the light output ratio of the luminaire.
The utilance road lighting U (see Figure 2) is given by the ratio of the luminous flux emitted by the
rl
luminaire within a specified solid angle to the total luminous flux emitted by the same luminaire, whereas
the utilization factor road lighting F is given by the ratio of the luminous flux emitted by the luminaire
u,rl
within a specified solid angle to the total luminous flux of the light source(s) in the same luminaire. The
utilization factor road lighting can be expressed as utilance road lighting multiplied by the light output
ratio:
F UR⋅ (2)
U,rl rl LO
where
is the light output ratio (of a luminaire).
R
LO

The utilance can be derived from the luminous intensity distribution of the luminaire (measured
according to EN 13032-1 or EN 13032-4, including uncertainties) and should be provided in an
appropriate format (see example in Table 1).
4.2 General assumptions
The tables are applicable for regular arrangements with constant overhang and mounting height on
straight sections of roads.
The luminous intensity distribution of the luminaire is part of the basic data needed for installation
performance calculations. This data should be given for luminaires used in road lighting in the format
specified in EN 13201-3.
With the photometric centre of luminaire as origin and the reference area of the road between two lines
parallel to its axis (which extends in principle from -∞ to +∞) a solid angle is defined. The position of the

EN 13032-5:2018 (E)
two circumscribing lines is given by their transverse angle. It is common practice to choose one of these
circumscriptions at a transverse distance equal to zero.
A reference area represents one or more carriageways, footpaths, cycle paths, emergency lanes and other
road areas lying separately or adjacent to a carriageway, strips just outside or inside a carriageway (for
the evaluation of the edge illuminance ratio), etc. (see Figure 1).
Each area is to be lit to the lighting requirements as defined in EN 13201-2.
Further, it is assumed that the areas are illuminated by a lighting installation with luminaires / lamps /
light sources of the same type in one or more rows that are parallel to the above-mentioned lines that
confine the areas.
The basic conventions made in the mathematical procedures are described in EN 13201-3:2015, 4.1 and
4.2.
4.3 Calculation of utilance by interpolation in an utilance table
The limiting lines of a reference area (strip) in relation to a row of luminaires are shown in Figure 1. The
limiting lines are part of the inclined planes B and B which pass through both the limiting lines and the
1 2
-1 -1
luminaire. The angles of inclination of the planes B and B are given by tan (t / H) and tan (t / H)
1 2 1 2
respectively, where t and t are the transverse distances to the limiting lines and H is the luminaire
1 2
mounting height (centre point of light above the reference area).

E = U ⋅ f ⋅ ϕ ⋅ W ⋅ S (1)

where
E is the average illuminance in lx on the strip under consideration;
av
U is the utilance road lighting:
rl
f is the overall maintenance factor;
m
ϕ is the luminaire luminous flux in lm;
Lum
W is the width of reference area, in m;
S is the luminaire spacing in m.
NOTE If the luminaire luminous flux is not known it can be determined from the knowledge of the total
luminous flux of the light sources in the luminaire and the light output ratio of the luminaire.
The utilance road lighting U is given by the ratio of the luminous flux emitted by the luminaire within a
rl
specified solid angle to the total luminous flux emitted by the same luminaire, whereas the utilization
factor road lighting F is given by the ratio of the luminous flux emitted by the luminaire within a
u,rl
specified solid angle to the total luminous flux of the light source(s) in the same luminaire. The utilization
factor road lighting can be expressed as utilance road lighting multiplied by the light output ratio.
The utilance can be derived from the luminous intensity distribution of the luminaire (measured
according to EN 13032-1 or EN 13032-4) and should be provided in an approved format.
4.2 General assumptions
The tables are applicable for regular arrangements on straight sections of roads.
The luminous intensity distribution of the luminaire is part of the basic data needed for installation
performance calculations. This data should be given for luminaires used in road lighting in the format
specified in EN 13201-3.
With the luminaire as origin and the reference area of the road between two lines parallel to its axis
(which extends in principle from -∞ to +∞) a solid angle is defined. The position of the two
circumscribing lines is given by their transverse angle. It is common practice to choose one of these
circumscriptions at a transverse distance equal to zero.
A reference area represents one or more carriageways, footpaths, cycle paths, emergency lanes and other
road areas lying separately or adjacent to a carriageway, strips just outside or inside a carriageway (for
the evaluation of the edge illuminance ratio), etc.
Each area is to be lit to the lighting requirements as defined in EN 13201-2.
Further, it is assumed that the areas are illuminated by a lighting installation with luminaires of the same
type in one or more rows that are parallel to the above-mentioned lines that confine the areas.
4.3 Calculation of utilance by interpolation in an utilance table
The limiting lines of a reference area (strip) in relation to a row of luminaires are shown in Figure 1. The
limiting lines are part of the inclined planes B and B which pass through both the limiting lines and the
1 2
-1 -1
luminaire. The angles of inclination of the planes B and B are given by tan (t / H) and tan (t / H)
1 2 1 2
respectively, where t and t are the transverse distances to the limiting lines and H is the luminaire
1 2
mounting height (centre point of light above the reference area).
