Our Experience in the Electrical Sector
For over twenty years, we at Comimpianti have been designing, installing, and maintaining electrical, photovoltaic, lighting, security, and industrial automation systems. Our turnkey approach allows us to oversee every phase—from design to execution and technical documentation management—with the goal of delivering efficient, safe, and long-lasting systems.
In our work, we believe that technology should serve energy savings, functionality, and the comfort of those who use the spaces. The relamping project for the soccer field at Centro San Francesco in Verbania is a concrete example of this commitment.
What Is Relamping and Why Is It Important Today
The term relamping refers to the replacement of traditional lighting fixtures (metal halide, discharge lamps, or fluorescent) with modern LED (Light Emitting Diode) sources.
This intervention allows you to:
- Reduce energy consumption by up to 60% compared to old technologies.
- Decrease maintenance costs, thanks to an average lifespan of over 50,000 hours.
- Improve the quality and distribution of light, eliminating flickering and shadow zones.
- Increase safety and visual comfort for those who use the illuminated spaces.
- Contribute to environmental sustainability, reducing CO₂ emissions and environmental impact.
Relamping does not require invasive work on the existing electrical system: it is a fast, economical, and highly efficient solution.
Today it represents one of the most effective tools for improving the performance of lighting systems without having to completely redo them.
Our Project: Relamping of the Centro San Francesco Soccer Field
In 2012, we completed the lighting system for the 11-a-side soccer field at Centro San Francesco in Verbania, a sports complex also equipped with a hotel, meeting rooms, and multipurpose spaces. The original system included 16 floodlights with 2000W metal halide lamps each.
In 2025, we carried out an LED relamping operation, aimed at improving lighting efficiency, reducing consumption, and making the system more sustainable.
Feasibility Study and Lighting Calculation
Before proceeding, we conducted a detailed lighting study in collaboration with the manufacturer TEC-MAR S.r.l., a company specializing in the design of high-performance LED floodlights.
The lighting calculation, essential for ensuring optimal results, allowed us to define an average illumination coefficient of 260 lux, ideal for professional sports fields.
Installation and Safety at Height
The work involved the replacement of the 16 2000W floodlights with new 1350W – 5000K LED floodlights, capable of offering greater efficiency and light uniformity.
The installation was carried out at a height of 27 meters, in full compliance with safety regulations, thanks to collaboration with Autotrasporti Antoniazza Gianmario and Autovictor Srl, who supported us with aerial platforms and specialized operators.
Our team, consisting of four technicians, managed every phase of the project:
- Removal of old floodlights and their disposal in compliance with environmental regulations.
- Connection and calibration of the new LED lighting fixtures.
- Optimal alignment and inclination of the floodlights according to the lighting design.
The Results of LED Relamping
The work brought numerous tangible benefits for the client:
- 35% energy savings on operating costs.
- Better visual quality, with stable light, free from flickering and perfectly distributed.
- Reduced maintenance expenses, thanks to the long lifespan of LED lamps.
- Greater safety and comfort for players and spectators.
- Lower environmental impact, with reduced CO₂ emissions and light pollution.
Furthermore, the replacement was carried out without structural modifications to the electrical system, confirming relamping as the ideal solution for energy efficiency in sports and industrial facilities.
Relamping: A Sustainable and Strategic Choice
LED relamping is not just a technical intervention, but an investment in the future.
It allows you to reduce energy waste, improve light quality, and concretely contribute to the sustainability goals required by European regulations and energy efficiency programs.
Whether it involves sports, industrial, or civil facilities, we at Comimpianti offer customized solutions tailored specifically to every need.

FAQ on LED Relamping
What Is the Difference Between Relamping and System Replacement?
Relamping involves only the replacement of lighting fixtures, keeping the existing wiring and structure. System replacement, on the other hand, involves complete work on the entire system.
How Much Can You Save with an LED System?
Savings vary depending on the type of lamps replaced and hours of use, but can exceed 60% of energy consumption.
Is It Necessary to Redo the Electrical Wiring?
Generally no: LED lamps are compatible with existing systems, avoiding invasive and costly work.
Is Relamping Tax-Deductible or Incentivized?
Yes, in many cases it falls under energy efficiency incentives or contributions provided for ecological transition.
Every project for us is an opportunity to transform light into efficiency.
Thanks to our know-how and the experience gained over decades of work in the sector, we guarantee reliable, safe, and long-lasting solutions.
LED relamping is just one of the interventions with which we contribute every day to making systems and environments more sustainable, high-performing, and intelligent.
