I am wiring four bollard lights with PIRs to have them come on as people walk down the long drive. I have run a 1.5 mm 3 core SWA from an all -weather FSU ( because I cant make the connection indoors). What is the best way to connect from PIR (to light) to PIR etc?
16 m between lights. I have run the SWA from FSU underground exiting in a long loop at each bollard and ending at the gate light. The bollard lights did not come with a PIR so I bought seperate PIRs.
you will need to run a 2,3 or 4 core armoured ( depending if you are using the armour as earth or if the PIR needs an earth and / or a neutral.. ) from each light to it's PIR or to a weatherproof box next to each PIR if you can't connect to it directly..
then just wire as you would a normal light circuit.. permanent live looped through, taken to the PIR and returned as a switched live to turn the light on.. ( neutral and earth also taken to the PIR if they need it.. )
