Lumos Controls: Simplest lighting controls ever made!

Building owners worldwide are now looking to implement lighting control systems. The adoption is primarily driven by the need to optimize lighting energy expenses and to meet regulatory requirements. Various building energy codes now mandate the usage of controls in residential and non-residential buildings. As an electrical contractor and lighting designer, controls will soon become an integral part of every lighting project. 

Now comes the question of what kind of controls one should choose. The market is now flooded with many wired and wireless lighting control systems, and selecting the right control solution can be tricky. If you are primarily into commercial projects, you must consider four factors before choosing to work with one. 

1.    Go for a zero-complexity system

How easy it is to implement lighting controls is the fundamental question you should ask yourself before choosing a system. You will have to ensure that the system you choose doesn’t require complex wiring to get started. Such a system will help you meet your deadlines. 

2.     Go for a system with a comprehensive product portfolio

The lighting requirements for a commercial building can be diverse. You should consider factors like the space, its dimensions and the kind of activities before designing a system. Choosing a solution that offers everything to successfully navigate design complexities and bring all smart lighting possibilities to life will be an added advantage. Moreover, having to collaborate with multiple partners for a project may cause delays and drive up the project cost.
