Abstract
In order to study the influence of road lighting standard on the photometric quantities and energy consumption, road lighting standards of CIE (International Commission on Illumination) and IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) were compared in methodology, evaluation criteria and threshold. With the calculation of 20 typical assembly of roads and luminaries, it is found that the luminance is higher in IESNA than that in CIE. On the other hand, energy consumption is much less in IESNA than that in CIE under the same conditions.
