What is the problem with the photocell sensor of street light?

Accepted Answer

Photocells for street lights ( Please review case studies of streetlight lamps for housing community. ) have Fail On and Fail Off modes. It refers to the difference in the behaviour of the output of the photocell when it fails. In Fail On mode, when the sensor fails, its output is on, and the street light will be on all the time no matter day or night, (i.e., it can indicate photocell failure during daytime). In Fail Off mode, when the sensor fails, its output is disconnected and the street light will always be off no matter day or night.
