Lighting Controls

Information

Methods

[!info] Lighting Control Technologies

  • Triac (Line voltage dim)
  • Analog (0-10V dim)
  • Digital
  • Wireless

All these control methods are likely to appear in drawings.

0-10V Dimming

In conduit:

Southwire 64350501
SIMpull® 16/2 Low Voltage Signal Cable, Blue

This method is compliant with NEC 725.136(I)(1), which allows control circuits to share a raceway with power conductors if either all of the power conductors or all of the control conductors are themselves in a raceway, or in metal-sheathed, metal-clad, nonmetallic-sheathed, or Type UF cable.

Conventions

[!info] "Local Control" as a PDI proposal qualification The term "local control only" is sometimes used to indicate no consideration for any lighting control beyond standard devices, (with $D's being the triac type) however, this phrasing is ambiguous and non-universal. Confirm with the bid team on what must be included.

Scope

Designations

Custom Switch Boxes

For switch combinations not in COMMON ASSEMBLIES, create heating designations based on the most similar.
