At Demand Electrical we offer a wide range of domestic services including outdoor security lighting. Lighting around the home has many benefits, It without doubt offers an element of piece of mind in the same way an alarm system will. It helps to prevent any unwelcome guests and reduces the risk of accidents.
With regards to materials our go to fitting has been the Collingwood tri colour pir fittings. For domestic use these come in three different sizes 10w, 20w and 30w, they have a colour selectable option on them just the same way most down lights have nowadays from 3000k, 4000k and 6000k.
When replacing existing fittings we simply use a weather proof box to conceal the connections as most fittings come pre wired from the manufacturer. When installing from new we look to take power from a local lighting circuit or socket circuit via a fused spur. Wherever possible we try to install isolation switch which is accessible, this will also give the option to override the sensor on the fitting keeping it permanently on.
Finally we set the time this will be for once the pir sensor has been activated and the area is clear. People are often unsure how long to set these, we normally recommend setting it for a little longer than however it takes you to put the bins out and get back in time or go to the shed where the freezer is.
