[Basketball] Grade III Indoor Lighting Retrofit Project


1. Project Profile


1.1 Project Background

  • Project Location: Dingqian Village, Longxun Town, Dehua County, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province, China

  • Project Scale: Total construction area is 31,000 ㎡, featuring a Basketball Hall with 2,596 seats and a Swimming Pool with 873 seats.

  • Lighting Grade: Strictly designed to comply with JGJ153-2016 Grade III Professional Competition Standard.

  • Project Requirements: To replace traditional lighting systems in both the basketball hall and swimming pool, successfully solving the pain points of uneven illumination, severe glare, and rigid single-scene controls. The upgraded venue must fully support flexible intelligent scene switching, energy-efficient operations, and professional HD event live broadcast.


2. Pre & Post Renovation Performance Evaluation


2.1 Pre-renovation Deficiencies

The original conventional lighting only supported basic daily use and completely failed the demands of professional event standards. Key defects included:

  • Uneven illumination: Obvious light and dark differences on the competition field, interfering with athletes’ judgment of sports trajectories.

  • Severe glare interference: Unoptimized light distribution caused strong visual distraction for both athletes and spectators, completely incompatible with broadcasting.

  • Single scene mode: No targeted lighting switching for training, amateur competitions, and professional events, resulting in serious energy waste.

  • Poor color rendering: Unable to restore the true color of the courts and sportswear, failing formal event shooting and broadcasting standards.


2.2 Post-renovation Performance Improvement

After the custom LED renovation, all lighting indicators fully meet JGJ153-2016 Grade III professional competition standards. Core upgrades are summarized below:

  • Optical Performance Upgrade: Full uniform illumination, Ra≥90, R9≥40, and a 5700K natural color temperature. Optimized professional lenses and specialized anti-glare hoods completely eliminate glare for eye-friendly sports lighting.

  • Intelligent Operation Upgrade: Supports intelligent one-click scene switching, mobile remote monitoring, and precise zoned control, greatly simplifying daily venue management.

  • Energy-saving Upgrade: High-efficiency, long-lifespan LED fixtures combined with smart controls drastically reduce invalid power consumption for low-carbon operation.

  • Scenario Upgrade: Seamlessly adapts to multiple distinct lighting modes, from daily fitness and training to professional competitions and HD live broadcasting.


3. Design Standard: JGJ & FIFA Sports Lighting Classification


3.1 Core Domestic Design Standards

The project strictly complies with two national core standards:

  • GB50034-2013 Standard for Architectural Lighting Design

  • JGJ153-2016 Standard for Lighting Design and Testing of Sports Venues

Both venues are professionally designed to JGJ153-2016 Grade III Professional Competition Level, meticulously covering the field of play, spectator stands, and emergency pathways for full-scene standardization.

Grade III Standard Core Requirements:

  • High illumination uniformity across the entire court with no dark areas.

  • Ultra-low glare values to completely avoid visual interference for players.

  • High color rendering performance for true color restoration.

  • Stable, flicker-free light output to meet professional HD shooting and live broadcast needs.


3.2 International Standard Reference (FIFA)

The lighting layout also explicitly references FIFA international lighting specifications, strictly controlling uniformity, GR glare, CRI, and color temperature consistency. This enables the venue to achieve dual domestic & international standard compliance.
