Sign lighting is external or retrofitted lighting that makes an existing sign readable after dark: LED trough lights, swan-neck spotlights or wall washers, or LED modules replacing old lightbox tubes.

Consent for illuminated signs in Wishaw
Illumination brings Scottish signs firmly into the consent process. Under the 1984 Scotland Regulations, internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs usually need express consent; the council decides, and listed buildings or conservation areas add an extra layer, with listed building consent usually required on a listed building. Keep the light static and the luminance within the PLG05 guidance the council is likely to reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, while the final connection is made to BS 7671 by an electrician. We confirm the route before you commit and can handle the drawings or the eDevelopment.scot submission.
