I thought that is something reserved for future use... Maybe Wifi access points
larknz: Most new streetlights have a socket that allows a control module to be fitted. This will allow the local authority to switch on or off the lights as required, or dim them if required.

Priceless. I love it.
Assuming you live on the North Shore in Auckland. The Shore used to use Cascade control for the streetlights. But that system was suffering reliability problems, a single failure of just 1 small wire or contactor could knock out streetlights over a large area. So with the LED upgrades, they are also installing daylight switches. So a failure will only take out 1 light, or at most only a small group of lights.
