Abstract: A secondary power system for a light standard having primary power system that is operable at a first voltage. The secondary power system includes an electrical outlet, a power supply and an electrical cord. The electrical outlet has at least one receptacle. The electrical outlet is attachable to the light standard. The power supply is capable of converting an input current at the first voltage to an outlet current at a second voltage that is different than the first voltage. The power supply includes a first connection point and a second connection point. The power supply is mountable in an interior of the light standard. The electrical cord has a first end and a second end. The first end is attached to the electrical outlet. The second end is attached to the power supply.
