The power of every road and street light-source shall be so adjusted that the sky glow from the lighting system of which It is a part shall not be visible with unaided vision from any point ten miles or more out to the open sea. The restrictions in respect of interior house and shop lighting are eased, the main matter to be guardec against being sky-glow.
