Lighting Control
Lighting Control
for mission critical energy reliability, load shedding, and demand control applications
(Product Info)
Ideally suited for industrial and commercial environments, such as large office buildings, factories, campuses, government, military bases, airports, multi-site retail, shopping malls, and parking garages.
Reduce Energy Consumption
Lighting is the largest single consumer of electric power in a typical building, often exceeding over 30% of the total energy cost. By controlling lights during non-occupancy periods, energy cost associated with lighting can often be reduced by over 50%. In addition, lighting control also helps defer replacement costs of lamps and ballasts by reducing the number of annual burn hours.
Many building codes now require the use of lighting controls to reduce energy consumption. Meeting such requirements, while still creating a comfortable and productive workspace, requires an intelligent lighting control system.
The Intelligent Lighting Control Solution
POWERLINK G3 is the system solution that helps you balance space constraints, equipment and installation costs, maintenance and operational concerns, and above all, ensure a code-compliant installation. POWERLINK G3 accommodates a wide variety of control devices such as occupancy sensors, card access readers, low voltage switches, inputs from external building systems, and photo sensors. It is also fully compatible and can be an integral part of a PowerLogic power monitoring and control system.

Example Services:
With the POWERLINK G3 solution, Square D Engineering Services can help you:
- Comply with codes
- Design an efficient lighting control system that saves floor space by mounting inside a standard lighting panelboard.
- Document system - layout and branch circuits control.
- Integrate an enterprise solution providing access control within a facility or across multiple facilities that also allows inputs, time schedules and zone status data to be shared across high-speed Ethernet networks.
- Interface with building automation systems that support the industry standard open MODBUS protocol for communications and control of individual remotely-operated circuit breakers, inputs, and other operating parameters.
- Determine best control method:
- Manual Control - Local occupant control or timed delay override.
- Occupancy Control - occupancy sensors directly connected to POWERLINK G3 inputs or wired in parallel with local low voltage switches for local override.
- Scheduling - Wiring a time clock or building control system to the POWERLINK G3 Controller inputs that provides control with blink notice and timed occupant override capabilities.
- Photometric Control - Photocells and daylight sensors for zone switching in response to changing light levels for controlling lights in parking lots, garages, ball fields, and other outdoor sports complexes.
