SynC · Topic
These are the standards in the SynC Standards library that cover Lighting Controls. Each one is a complete, plain-language specification: the scope it applies to, the requirements that govern it, and a structured equipment datasheet listing the values a project has to decide — ratings, materials, setpoints, and the standards each is verified against. All of it is free to read without an account and published under CC BY-SA 4.0.
A standard usually carries several topics, so most of the entries below also appear under neighbouring subjects. The topics each one carries are listed on its own page.
Exterior and site lighting for commercial, institutional, industrial, and campus projects, including area and roadway luminaires, parking-lot and parking-structure luminaires, floodlights, wall-pack luminaires, bollards, and their supporting poles, foundations, and lighting controls. Covers luminaire photometric performance, light-pollution and dark-sky control, LED drivers and electrical requirements, pole and support structures, foundations and anchorage, photocontrol and scheduling controls, surge protection, and corrosion-resistant finishes for outdoor service.
The building lighting control system for commercial, institutional, and industrial projects — the sensors, switches, dimmers, time switches, relay and contactor panels, photosensors, and networked or luminaire-level control equipment that turn lighting on, off, and to intermediate levels in response to occupancy, daylight, schedule, and manual command. Covers the control devices, the dimming and control interface to the luminaire driver (0–10V, DALI/DALI-2, phase-cut), networked and luminaire-level control systems, the emergency lighting control interface required by UL 924, the low-voltage control wiring, the documented sequences of operation, and the commissioning and functional testing the energy code requires.
