Most commercial LED fixtures use 0–10V dimming, which provides smooth, wide-range control. Some track or decorative fixtures may require ELV or TRIAC dimmers.

Where flexibility is needed, we’ll propose wireless controls like Lutron Vive.

California Title 24 requires a portion of receptacles in offices and similar spaces to be automatically shut off by a time switch, occupancy sensor, or building control system. We design controlled and non-controlled receptacle zones, label them, and verify function during commissioning so you pass acceptance testing and avoid energy-code violations.
