Lighting Up A Stairs How Would You Do It?

[Gingerbolt]

anyone got any drawing to do with pir lighting diagram any lighting diagram to help me to better understand many thanks

Not entirely sure what the question is. If you are a teacher I'd have thought you would have known some of this.

Use fittings with built in microwave/motion sensors.

More information is required .

Do you want to light a stairway using a motion detector ...as with flats etc.?

 

[Gingerbolt]

i just want to learn how you would wire up some lights that would light up the stairs by using pir

Loads of diagrams here look at the instructions for each switch:

Put a supply to a PIR and connect the stair lights to the Load terminal  & the N to N .

 

[Gingerbolt]

How would you wire a three floor stairs with being able to go to each floor ground first second and a light coming on with a pir connected

Have you actually read any replies to any of the multiple topics you have started?

Somewhat rhetorical TBH as it is clear you haven't.

Pull cord with a 24' cord ?

Hi Gingerbolt,

I think what you are asking for is a drawing that can show you how to wire a staircase so that as you go up/down the appropriate lights will come on?  There is a pool of good advice on this forum.  It does state on your profile that you are both a 'teacher' and a 'general all rounder'.  The sort of question you are asking would not generally be asked for by either of those disciplines.  

Maybe if you could confirm what you are working on the members here can help you much better.

I said almost the exact same thing to the OP in another thread, see if he takes any more notice of you.

Proximity sensors on each light. :C

I can reply that I am not a teacher I am an apprentice and don't know how to change that on my status I already thing I know how to wire a stairs:

dis board to junction box wire pir to light for 3 different legs

Please can you confirm if I am right thanks

There are many different ways to wire what you want.  You will get a different response from members now we know you are learning.  

Is this for a college assignment?

 

[Gingerbolt]

No this is just for interest as maybe when I buy a house that needs doing up or for a friend that wants a pir stairs instead of switching a stairs

Ahhh ok.

I suppose you need to ask yourself what is the difference between a 'PIR' and a standard 'light switch'?

May be you should ask your tutor and / or your boss.

Pir is a sensor for when you walk in the room the, the pir picks you up and the lights come on

A light switch is when you flick a switch on and the lights Coke on

There is also timers for when you want the lights to come on and also night sensor i.e. Street lights

So,,, is there any difference between the function of a PIR switch and that of a 1 way switch?
