  15. Control Systems • Typical Switched circuits • Electricity comes in to a Distribution / Power panel / Breaker box then is delivered to the fixtures/outlets. • Wall Mounted Devices • Dimmers – Rheostat - transformer devices that reduces voltage to lighting fixtures • Timer Switches – Keeps a switch on for a set amount of time • Time Clocks – Allows for lighting to turn on/off during specific times throughout the day. • Occupancy Sensors – detects occupancy by heat, sound, motion or obstruction.

  16. Control Systems • Intelligent Control Systems • Electricity comes in to a Distribution / Power panel / Breaker box – then to a intelligent control panel – then to the fixtures/ outlets. • Usually only one used per project • Multi-button keypads replaces switches • Luminaires group together are called lighting loads or lighting zones • Manufacturers include: Luton, Litetouch, Vantage, Crestron • Localized Control Panels • Watt Stopper, Lutron “Grafik Eye” and Crestron
