A Lighting Distribution Panel is an electrical distribution panel specifically designed for the distribution and control of electrical power to lighting circuits within a building or facility. These panels play a key role in managing and supplying power to various lighting loads efficiently and safely.
Provide overcurrent protection for individual lighting circuits. They interrupt the flow of electricity in case of faults or overloads.
Busbars
Conductors that distribute electrical power within the panel to feed individual lighting circuits.
Control Devices
Switches, dimmers, or other control devices to manage the operation of lighting circuits.
Metering and Monitoring Equipment
Measures parameters such as current and voltage for monitoring and control purposes.
Enclosure
The entire panel is housed in a protective enclosure, which can be surface-mounted or flush-mounted depending on the application.
Application
01
Commercial Buildings
Lighting distribution panels are commonly used in commercial spaces such as offices, retail stores, hotels, and restaurants to manage the distribution of power to various lighting fixtures.
02
Residential Buildings
In residential settings, these panels are utilized to control and distribute power to lighting circuits in different rooms and areas of the house.
03
Industrial Facilities
In industrial environments, lighting distribution panels play a role in managing lighting loads in areas such as warehouses, production floors, and offices.
04
Public Spaces
Lighting distribution panels are used in public spaces like airports, educational institutions, and hospitals to control and distribute power to lighting systems.
Rating
Voltage Rating
The voltage rating is typically aligned with the voltage of the lighting circuits, often 120V, 240V, or 277V in residential and commercial settings.
Current Rating
The current rating depends on the total load of the connected lighting circuits, and the panel is rated to handle the maximum current safely.
Advantages
Organized Power Distribution
Lighting distribution panels provide a centralized and organized way to distribute power to various lighting circuits throughout a building.
Flexible Control
Incorporation of switches and control devices allows for flexible control over different lighting zones or circuits.
Efficient Operation
Circuit breakers or fuses ensure the safe and efficient operation of lighting circuits by protecting against overloads and faults.
Easy Maintenance
The modular design of the panel makes it easier to troubleshoot and replace individual components, facilitating maintenance activities.
