EMAN FTC provides runway and taxiway lighting installation services in Riyadh and across Saudi Arabia. We support airport operators, EPC contractors, aviation lighting suppliers and electrical engineers with new installations, replacement work and commissioning support.

Send your lighting layout, equipment specifications and site requirements. We can review the installation package and confirm the work included in your quotation.

What the installation package covers

The scope follows your approved airfield design. It can cover fixtures and bases, cable connections, isolation transformers, constant current regulators (CCRs) and lighting-control interfaces.

Additional systemsRunway centreline, touchdown zone, stop-bar and runway guard lighting, subject to the agreed scope.

Use our runway and taxiway lighting products to discuss fixture requirements, or browse the wider airport lighting range. Civil works, design responsibilities and specialist inspections are confirmed separately.

Check the existing system before replacing lights

For an LED upgrade, the review starts with the installed fixtures, bases, transformers, regulators and controls. Equipment model numbers, circuit drawings and photographs help establish what can stay and what needs replacing.

For example, when planning a taxiway fixture replacement, check the proposed lights against the existing transformers and CCR specifications before ordering. A matching base alone does not confirm electrical compatibility.

See our CCRs and transformers for equipment enquiries. Our lighting replacement and retrofitting services cover related upgrade requirements.

Working within airport access windows

Before mobilisation, the airport operator and project team need to agree access permissions, work areas, isolation arrangements and handback requirements.

If the work is scheduled overnight, that window must allow for entry, installation, checks and clearing the area before handback. Confirming these details early helps set the installation sequence and crew requirements.

Where lighting controls connect to a wider electrical system, include the relevant drawings in the enquiry. We can review those interfaces alongside our control and automation services.

Testing and handover records

The agreed inspection plan may include cable continuity and insulation checks, connection inspections, CCR operating checks and lighting-control functional tests. Test methods follow the equipment instructions and project requirements.

A circuit that fails to operate needs an assessment of its cables, connections, power equipment and controls. For panel or control faults, see our control system fault analysis services.

Handover documents can include test results, equipment details, circuit identification and updated drawings where contracted. Specialist photometric testing, flight inspection and authority acceptance are separate items to confirm in the project scope.

Equipment suited to the site

Heat, dust, moisture and coastal exposure need attention in the equipment specification. For a coastal airfield, for example, review corrosion protection and cable-entry sealing against the site's conditions.

Where specified by the electrical design, our earthing and lightning protection products can be reviewed with the wider protection package.

Riyadh and projects across Saudi Arabia

Based in Riyadh, EMAN FTC welcomes project enquiries from Jeddah, Dammam, Jubail, Al Khobar, Dhahran, Yanbu and other Saudi locations. Availability and mobilisation are confirmed after reviewing the work and site access requirements.

Frequently asked questions

What do runway and taxiway lighting installation services include?

Runway and taxiway lighting installation services can include fixtures, mounting bases, cables, isolation transformers, constant current regulator connections and testing. EMAN FTC reviews your drawings and equipment specifications to confirm the installation scope, including any civil works or specialist inspections needed.

Do you provide runway lighting installation in Riyadh and other Saudi cities?

EMAN FTC is based in Riyadh and accepts project enquiries across Saudi Arabia, including Jeddah, Dammam, Jubail, Al Khobar, Dhahran and Yanbu. Share the site location and work requirements so we can confirm availability and mobilisation arrangements.

Can you install lighting supplied by our company?

Customer-supplied lighting can be reviewed for installation. Send the fixture datasheets, quantities, approved drawings and details of the existing electrical system. The quotation should clearly identify who supplies the bases, transformers, connectors and other installation materials.

Can existing runway and taxiway lights be replaced with LED?

An LED upgrade is possible where the proposed equipment suits the airfield design and electrical system. Existing bases, transformers, regulators and controls need checking before replacement. For example, a fixture that fits the mounting base may still require different electrical components.

Do all cables and transformers need replacing during an upgrade?

Not necessarily. Some components may remain if their condition and specifications suit the proposed installation. The assessment should consider cable test results, transformer ratings, connector condition and compatibility with the new fixtures.

Do you supply airfield lighting equipment as well as installation?

EMAN FTC accepts supply enquiries for runway and taxiway lights, CCRs, isolation transformers and related accessories. Send your bill of quantities or equipment specifications to confirm availability. Supply and installation responsibilities are recorded in the agreed quotation.

Can installation work be scheduled while an airport remains operational?

Work may be scheduled within airport-approved access windows. The operator must agree the work area, isolation arrangements and handback requirements. An overnight programme, for example, needs time for installation, testing and clearing the area before it is returned to use.

What testing is carried out after airfield lighting installation?

The testing plan may include visual inspections, cable continuity and insulation checks, CCR operating checks and lighting-control functional tests. The exact checks depend on the equipment and project specification. Photometric testing, flight inspection and authority acceptance are confirmed separately.

What documents will we receive after installation?

The agreed handover package can include inspection records, test results, equipment datasheets, circuit identification and updated drawings. Tell us which documents your consultant or airport operator requires before work begins so they can be included in the scope.

How much does runway and taxiway lighting installation cost?

Installation cost depends on the number of fixtures, cable routes, existing equipment condition, civil works and testing requirements. Airport access restrictions and permitted working hours also affect the price. Drawings and a bill of quantities help us prepare a project-specific quotation.

How long does a runway or taxiway lighting project take?

The schedule depends on material availability, site readiness, work quantities and airport access windows. Replacing fixtures on existing bases involves a different programme from installing new cable routes and foundations. We review these details before proposing a completion schedule.

What should I send to request an installation quotation?

Send the project location, approved lighting layout, bill of quantities, equipment specifications and target dates. For replacement work, include existing fixture and CCR model numbers, circuit drawings and photographs where available. Mention access restrictions and whether civil works are part of the enquiry.
