Street Light Audit App

Street Light Audit App turns street light audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each street light against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare street light audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.

What is Street Light Audit App?

Street Light Audit App runs a scored street light audit covering lantern output and photocell operation, column condition, corrosion, and impact damage, door, cutout, and internal wiring, earthing and insulation resistance, and verticality and foundation, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, street light findings live on paper and in chat. A street light fault such as failed lamps or stuck photocells slips through. An audit then means rebuilding street light evidence from folders.

Street Light Audit App keeps one record per street light and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each street light finding is tracked to verified closure. Highway electrical and lighting teams see street light completion and overdue actions across the professional services portfolio. Every street light record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

What to Include in a Street Light Audit App?

A comprehensive street light audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit street light condition and maintenance programs with scoring and evidence capture. Your audit should include sections for lantern output and photocell operation; column condition, corrosion, and impact damage; and door, cutout, and internal wiring, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.

How to Use Street Light Audit App

A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a street light audit:

  1. Open the street light audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
  2. Score each street light against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
  3. Let the app calculate the section and overall street light score so the site is comparable to others.
  4. Raise a corrective action for each failed street light criterion with an owner and due date.
  5. Sign off the street light audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.

What Does a Street Light Audit Cover?

A street light audit scores condition against electrical safety standards and BS 7671 wiring regulations, checking lantern output and photocell operation, column condition, corrosion, and impact damage, door, cutout, and internal wiring, earthing and insulation resistance, verticality and foundation, and cable connections and fuse rating. Each street light finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the street light audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

What Street Light Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere

Street Light work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Street Light Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.

Street Light Audit App: Assigned contractor signs off the street light fix, and nobody checks it

Assigned contractor signs off the street light fix, and nobody checks it

A defect on the street light is handed to assigned contractor. A week later the street light defect is marked closed. Whether the street light work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.

Problem

  • Assigned contractor marks work closed with no verification
  • Poor street light fixes are only found at the next inspection
  • No record of which street light partners actually perform

Solution

  • Closure photo required before any street light action is signed off
  • Assigned contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
  • Re-opened street light actions linked back to the original finding
Street Light Audit App: The street light report is still being assembled by hand

The street light report is still being assembled by hand

Someone spends Friday afternoon collecting street light photos, notes, and audit records into a report. By the time leadership reads it, the street light data is days old and the next problem is already live.

Problem

  • Street Light reports compiled by hand from photos and notes
  • Leadership reads street light data that is already days old
  • Every street light report looks slightly different

Solution

  • Branded street light reports generate automatically per site and period
  • Scheduled street light reports reach managers before the morning meeting
  • One consistent street light report format across the estate
Street Light Audit App: Every auditor scores the street light audit differently, so sites cannot be compared

Every auditor scores the street light audit differently, so sites cannot be compared

One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The street light audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.

Problem

  • Street Light scoring depends on which auditor showed up
  • Street light sections get skipped with no record
  • Street Light scores are not comparable across sites

Solution

  • Weighted street light criteria baked into the audit template
  • Mandatory street light sections, so nothing is skipped
  • Comparable street light scores that roll up across the estate

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Street Light Audit App check on a street light audit?

Street Light Audit App runs a scored street light audit against electrical safety standards and BS 7671 wiring regulations, checking lantern output and photocell operation, column condition, corrosion, and impact damage, door, cutout, and internal wiring, earthing and insulation resistance, and verticality and foundation. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for highway electrical and lighting teams rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.

Which street light defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?

The audit targets the street light failures that matter most: failed lamps or stuck photocells, column corrosion at the base, exposed or damaged internal wiring, and missing earth or door. Left unchecked, a fault such as failed lamps or stuck photocells can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so highway electrical and lighting teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.

Which standards does Street Light Audit App support for street light work?

Street Light Audit App keeps street light checks aligned to electrical safety standards and BS 7671 wiring regulations. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, highway electrical and lighting teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.

Can teams run street light checks offline and across multiple sites?

Yes. Street Light Audit App is offline-first: teams complete street light checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So highway electrical and lighting teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.

What evidence proves a street light audit was completed?

Every completed street light audit carries lantern-on night photo, column base corrosion photo, and cutout and wiring photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, highway electrical and lighting teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
