GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF OUTDOOR STREET LIGHTING IN CAST IRON
• Reproduction of forms
• Great similarity of pieces
• Section & Strongest
• Texture
• Synonymous of quality
• Recyclable 100% without cost raw material

CHARACTERISTICS OF CAST IRON
• Type EN-GJL-200 As per norm: EN 1561
• Type EN-GJS-500-7As per norm: EN 1563
• Differents degrees R. of stretching.
• Good behavior to oxidation.
– Non reduction section.- Oxide = Protection
Grey cast iron (traditional)
Ductile cast iron (> R)
• Norm EN 1706
• Many alloys according to application.
• Great difference of €/Kg. Acording quality Danger
• In “normal” alloys, porous oxide Progressive
Oxidation• Galvanic Par with fastening bolts & Columns.
CHARACTERISTICS OF CAST ALUMINIUM
QUALITY CONTROL
• Metallurgical quality control • Thicknesses control with ultrasounds • Hardness control• Primer micron-size control & painting by
ultrasounds• Adherence control• Chamber control of foggy salt • Ultraviolet chamber control• Effort in point control in test machine.

SUMMARY, COMMENTS & CONCLUSIONS
• Historically, light fitting with gas were only of casting• Possibility of recovering old forms• Project quality• Possibility of mixed lamp post + slender + economic• Cast iron Lamp post
- Progression of oxidation- Galvanic Par
• Brackets of cast aluminium, thickness 1/3• Columns no approved Pay attention to the quality• Are hte supports “for all the life”• Sevilla, supports catenary tram with outdoor street lighting• Sculptures up to 8 Tn.• Differents pieces not catalogued• Class I. to control gear is essential earth wire.
