Twilight switch

Thanks to this system, a wide range of examples of use are created, from lighting both public and private spaces to the simulation of presence, where the twilight switch provides the intermittent operation of a circuit.

[3] The most commonly used twilight switches are of the electromechanical type, which differ from electronic ones by the use of piloted relays already integrated in the circuit itself, and which allow small loads to be directly connected (for example, a single lamp).

[4] Pay attention to the number of lamps that power the device and its power in watts, following the instructions in the user manual, in order to avoid a dangerous current overload on the contacts of the drive relay, in fact, if higher loads are required, a contactor will need to be inserted.

[5] The main benefit of using a twilight switch is the considerable energy savings it brings, combined with the convenience of unnecessary time scheduling, which effectively regulates sunlight.

The major downside to doing the installation is that if you place artificial light near a photo-sensitive detector, the switch may not turn on.
