DEVELOPMENT OF MAL AYSIAN STANDARDS The Department of Standards Malaysia (STANDARDS MALAYSIA) is the national standardisation and accreditation body.
The main function of the Department is to foster and promote standards, standardisation and accreditation as a means of advancing the national economy, promoting industrial efficiency and development, benefiting the health and safety of the public, protecting the consumers, facilitating domestic and international trade and furthering international cooperation in relation to standards and standardisation.
Malaysian Standards are developed through consensus by committees which comprise of balanced representation of producers, users, consumers and others with relevant interests, as may be appropriate to the subject in hand. To the greatest extent possible, Malaysian Standards are aligned to or are adoption of international standards. Approval of a standard as a Malaysian Standard is governed by the Standards of Malaysia Act 1996 (Act 549). Malaysian Standards are reviewed periodically. The use of Malaysian Standards is voluntary except in so far as they are made mandatory by regulatory authorities by means of regulations, local by-laws or any other similar ways.
The Department of Standards appoints SIRIM Berhad as the agent to develop Malaysian Standards. The Department also appoints SIRIM Berhad as the agent for distribution and sale of Malaysian Standards.

MS 825: PART 1: 2007
FOREWORD This Malaysian Standard was developed by the Working Group on Road Lighting under the authority of the Electrotechnical-2 Industry Standards Committee (ISC S). MS 825 consists of the following parts, under the general title Code of practice for the design of road lighting : -
Part 1: Lighting of roads and public amenity areas
-
Part 2: Lighting of tunnels
This part of standard is the first revision of MS 825:1983, Code of practice for road lighting General principles. Major modifications in this revision are as follows: a) the title has been changed; b) the scope has been expanded beyond that of the general principles in designing road lighting; and c)
the standard also deals with the design of lighting for all types of highways and public thoroughfares as well as urban centres and public amenity areas.
This revised Malaysian Standard cancels and replaces MS 825:1983. Compliance with a Malaysian Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.
