фонарный столб; мачта для фонаря (Andrey Truhachev); световая опора (A street light, lamppost, street lamp, light standard, or lamp standard is a raised source of light on the edge of a road or walkway, which is used to provide light when it is needed. Modern lamps may also have light-sensitive photocells that activate automatically when light is or is not needed: dusk, dawn, or the onset of dark weather. This function in older lighting systems could have been performed with the aid of a solar dial. Many street light systems are being connected underground instead of wiring from one utility post to another. WK Alexander Demidov); столб (фонарный Taras) |
