Force Deflection Testing
Force deflection testing street lighting The Force Deflection Test is a non-destructive testing method used to assess the structural stability of street lighting columns. It is conducted to identify any loss of section below ground level down to a depth of 750mm. This test is crucial for ensuring the safety and compliance of street lighting infrastructure, as faulty vertical systems can pose a significant risk to public safety and lead to costly litigation. The test is conducted by qualified technicians and is aligned with the EN40, GN22, and PLG 06 standards, which are recognized in the UK for structural testing.
Renewal: 12 monthly extention for up to 3years
Dip Stick TestingDipstik testing is a non-destructive testing method used to assess the condition of street lighting columns, particularly those below ground. It utilizes remote field eddy currents to detect corrosion and cracks, which can go undetected for years. This method is particularly useful for identifying loss of thickness in column material without the need for excavation
Renewal: 12 monthly extention for up to 3 years
Ultrasonic TestingUltrasonic Testing of Street Lighting Systems Ultrasonic testing (UT) is a non-destructive testing (NDT) method that uses high-frequency sound waves to detect flaws and measure material thickness in street lighting systems. This technique is particularly useful for assessing the condition of lighting columns, as it allows for the measurement of wall thickness without the need for excavation.
