The key to good lighting control design is

having clear information that brings about

the following results:

• Specifies the correct products

• Details the proper installation

• Clarifies the desired operation

Many benefits will result when a good

lighting control design is achieved:

• Energy code requirements met

• Installation costs reduced

• Mistakes and changes minimized

• Ease of use increased

Lighting control design can consist of specifying a simple part number or can involve

detailing each and every wire and connection point in the system. In any case, a good

design involves six basic elements:

1. Determine control strategy

2. Select products

3. Create single line riser diagram

4. Create lighting control schedules

5. Cr

eat

e a writt

en specific

ation

6. Include lighting control device details on the lighting plans

This guide is intended to aid the designer in selecting, laying out and specifying a lighting

control panel system. Included elsewhere in this binder are application and technical

bulletins covering various lighting control topics as well as lighting control wiring

diagrams.

lighting control panel, occupancy sensor, or any lighting control design questions. Call

Complete Control System

AIA Division 16 Specifications -

Section 16950

OVERVIEW

The Watt Stopper designs and manufactures lighting control panels and systems. Products range from basic low

voltage components through mid-range systems designed for small to medium buildings, to fully programmable,

networked systems featuring comprehensive control software.

The Watt Stopper’s Complete Control (CC) family offers the most comprehensive, flexible solution available for lighting

control. Complete Control combines the power of the PC with distributed intelligence in each panel to provide maximum

energy savings and occupant satisfaction.

Ideally suited for medium to large facilities, the system advantages become obvious when documentation, central

monitoring and control, and reporting are required. PC software is available in both DOS and Windows

versions. The

DOS system supports legacy hardware and provides the most cost effective solution for programming, trends, after

hours billing, and animated graphics. The Windows version, WinControl, provides the best integration platform with

support for the latest industry-standard features: ActiveX components, COM/DCOM, Windows 95/98 or NT.

IDEAL APPLICATIONS

Office Buildings over 200,000 square feet

Campus Environments

Stadiums / Arenas

Museums

Airports

Prisons

Malls

Lighting Control Panels

Each lighting control application requires a defined strategy before selecting the right

product for the job. Most applications will have a baseline requirement needed to meet

mandatory energy codes. This requirement means that automatic shutoff is essential

rather than optional. Further control strategy decisions will then involve how lighting will

be turned on, and what provisions are needed for overriding schedules.

As an example, the control strategy for offices might be to allow occupants to manually

control lighting with local switches while providing a timed shutoff after hours. An alter-

native might be to include occupancy sensors so that lighting automatically turns on with

the arrival of the first occupant, then is held on during scheduled occupancy, then reverts

to occupancy sensor control after hours. Finally, corridor, lobby and other common areas

might be automatically controlled by turning lights on and off based on a schedule.

A partial list of additional control strategy decisions will include:

• Dataline switches for occupant convenience

• Integration of occupancy sensors or AS automatic switches

• Photocell or astronomic control of exterior lighting

• Seven day repeating schedules or 365 scheduling

• Advanced scenarios such as common area interlock, cleaning switch,

or forced load shed

• Automatic daylighting control

• Multi-user web access

• Graphical user interface

• Telephone or LAN-based override

Lighting Integrator provides a single, scalable platform that can accommodate the

simplest applications while allowing buildup of control features to meet the most complex

requirements. WinControl Designer can streamline this process by guiding the designer

and automatically adding the necessary intelligence cards and modules to the design as

functionality requires.

Lighting Control Panels

The single-line riser diagram is a layout of the lighting control panel system. It provides

an overall detail to the installing contractor and manufacturer of how the lighting control

system is designed and installed in a facility.

The following elements are required in a riser diagram:

• Each lighting control panel with name label

• Each panel’s general location relative to other panels and devices

• The type of wire and number of conductors between panels and devices

• Connection to any other system or device such as photocells, occupancy sensors, time

clocks, building automation systems, alarm systems, etc.

• Any other important notes relative to the system's overall layout and design

WinControl Designer totally automates this step and outputs a CAD ready riser diagram

that can be directly placed on the contract drawings. Alternatively, it can be edited and

modified for special requirements with any compatible CAD program.

Step 4 - Create lighting control schedules

Lighting control schedules are used to document what is being controlled and how it is

controlled. There are several different schedules that should be filled out and included in

the project drawings or specifications. A set of blank schedule forms are included as an

appendix to this guide. Designers may also use WinControl Designer to automatically

generate these schedules.

Typical information documented on a schedule includes:

• General panel information

• A list of circuits or branch circuits the panel controls

• The assignment between circuits, switches, relays or contactors, and channels

• A description of the loads being controlled

• Switch locations and functions

A good rule of thumb for the designer is to be as complete as possible in filling in the

schedule information. Complete information will help ensure a trouble-free installation

that fully meets all expectations.

Written specifications provide a clear description of product function and features

required for a project. These specifications are usually included in section 16500 of a

standard architectural specifications package.

General specifications for The Watt Stopper products are included in the specifications

section of the binder. These specifications are typically general and should be edited to

meet the exact application of the project. Electronic versions are available from our

website at www.wattstopper.com.

WinControl Designer will automatically generate a customized document based on selec-

tions made during the design pr

ocess.

Step 6 - Include device details on lighting plans

All switches, panels and associated devices must be included on a project's lighting

plans. This provides the installer with the details of the actual location for each item. It

also indicates the wiring between the devices.

A symbol chart is included in this section which displays suggested symbols for switches,

photocells, and other lighting control devices. Include the necessary symbols in the

symbol chart/legend of the project drawings. Use these symbols to distinguish the

lighting control devices separately from other devices on the drawings.
