What are the characteristics of obstacle lights in the ICAO and FAA standards?

According to ICAO Annex 14 Volume Ⅰ,the characteristics of low-intensity obstacle lights are as follows.

      Light Type                 Color           Signal Type/(flash rate)    Peak Intensity(cd)    Intensity(cd) at given angles                                                                                                                                                      +6°               +10°

How do I install the solar obstruction light?

There are two installation methods:

2.1. Direct installation

The Drawing and Hole map of DWS501A are as follows:

2.2. With the Flangebase

The solar obstruction light DWS501A can also be connected to other structures via a Flangebase, as shown in the figure below.
