Pir 2 Way

[Electroglow]

what do u think of this? has any one wired lighting cct in this way b4?

witch a over ride switch front end?

i have not ever done 2 way pir before so do they work as a normal switch. e.g. 3 core to each PIR ?

 

[ProDave]

No not as "normal" 2 way.

If you want multiple PIR sensors to turn on one (or more) lights, you wire the switched live from each sensor in parallel then off to the light(s)

[ProDave]

how do i attach a diagram

no diagram, but you will find many light with PIR's have a sw. live terminal so you can connect them between lights, so 1 PIR works more than 1 light

but make sure the total load isnt greater than any individual PIR can control

and over-ride switch would just switch L to SL

 

[Electroglow]

no i want to 2 pir's to switch the same light s

When replying, click on the 'More reply options' which is at the bottom right. You will then see a 'attach files' box bottom left which lets you browse your own pc/lap top for a picture to upload
