Commercial Lighting Control

ILLUMRA wireless light switches used in commercial building retrofit

Application

Control lights from multiple locations within a commercial building.

Scenario

A building owner decided to add switch locations when electrical work in a building had already been halfway completed. The new electrical plan called for luminaries in the building to be controlled from multiple locations. Contractors had initially installed a single switch for each fixture. Pulling wires to the new switch locations was impractical. The completion date of the project was in jeopardy of slipping.

Solution

The architect and contractor used ILLUMRA self-powered wireless light switches and ILLUMRA receivers to solve the problem. Wireless switches installed at the desired new locations eliminated the need to run switch leg or traveler wires. Because the switches never need batteries, they will never require maintenance. Wireless relay receivers were installed to receive radio signals from the new ILLUMRA wireless light switches and control the luminaries. The project was successfully finished on-time.
