Discuss Communal Lights in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Hey, basically I’m doing some communal lights and it’s been a while since I have done them. I’ve basically got two options one way is to have the lights wired on their own pir sensor so if the pir operates it only operates its specific light and the other option is to link out all the lights and the same for the pir sensors so if one of the pir sensor operates all the lights turn on simultaneously. All the lights will also be maintained fittings with emergency battery backups. I’ve done some wiring diagrams if someone can have a look to see if the two wiring options look correct
Cheers

You would have thought they'd have a switch to flick on and off to engage an override. Not on each PIR but an actual light switch
Well conventional wisdom says that you just parallel ('piggy back') as many switch sources as you need, all fed to the contactor coil. If for...
