Current-limiting subpanel

The Trac-Master current-limiting subpanel complies with energy codes like ASHRAE 90.1 and California Title 24 and is designed to limit the available wattage to lighting circuits to their design specification. This subpanel installs between the branch circuit breaker and the track lighting and calculates lighting density by the rating of the subpanel circuit breaker for each track circuit. It allows the use of track fixtures such as CMH, T5HO, and low-voltage HIR MR16 lamps and is factory preassembled to the customer's specifications.

Residential lighting control line

The new Square D Clipsal lighting control line includes dimmers, relays, movement sensors, and input devices such as switches and touch screens. These products comprise a distributed control system, meaning that each device works independently of the others, so if one device fails, the entire system will not go down with it. The lighting control line offers touch screens in color or black-and-white that can be programmed to create pre-set lighting scenes that can activate automatically. The line's dimmers and relays can connect to Cat. 5 cabling anywhere on a network.
