· The feed has to come from the existing lighting circuit inside the stockroom which is on a two way switch system. I need the PIR light to work independently from the switched inside lights. The outside light come prewired with regular twin and earth. Please advise on the best course of action. What is the best way to wire this? Thanks
· If they are all that is required is your existing supply connected to the PIR sensor . Your control switch will be permanently on when operation is required, switching the sensor of and on within two seconds will bring the lamp on permanently. Go to your local electrical wholesaler and see if this type of PIR is still available.
· I bought a PIR security light for the same reason, I simply connected some lighting cable straight into the ceiling rose Brown to L , Blue to N and Earth to E and obviously the other end into the PIR light , this way there was a permanent live feed to the light but the light only came on when movement was detected after dusk. thomo27, 11 Nov 2007.

· Yes, it's almost as easy as just adding the light in the first place. What you want is a stand alone PIR (they vary a lot in style if you look round), what you do is basically wire the PIR in, then connected the light to the PIR's "switched" output rather than directly to the power source.
· You can usually install a light fixture between an existing one and the switch by cutting the cable to the existing fixture at the location of the new one, inserting the ends of the cable into the electrical box for the new fixture and pigtailing the new fixture onto these wires. Also Know, can you link PIR sensors?

· Now the existing porch rose has a single switch, but to keep things neat and tidy, i intend on changing this switch to a double gang switch and make one of these switches independently control the PIR light. Now the PIR light doesn't have as many terminals as a rose so i'm confused as to how the wires of the switch connect to the PIR light. The ...
· Hans_25 Screwfix Select. @Mayur if you only have 3 wires at each light they are switched live, neutral and earth. To add a PIR you also need a permanent live, so 4 wires. Can you post a photo of your existing light and connections?
· Connect the other end on to the PIR switched live. Wired like this, switching the hall light switch on will activate the PIR and the hall light will switch on when there is movement past it. It will switch off after a pre-set time. If you turn the hall light switch off the light …

· They had wired the switches using 14/3 romex, with the black wire from the 14/3 going to the light switch and red wire from the 14/3 going to the vent fan. I have pulled power from an outlet into a junction box and connected all the black wires and the red wire together, all the neutral wires together and all the grounds together. The lights in the bathroom now work fine but the vent fan does ...
How to wire a motion sensor to an existing light. This short video will show you how to wire a PIR motion detector with LED light. Use pliers to tighten the electrical nut so it is securely holding the motion sensor to the exterior light housing. However the diagram is a simplified version of this arrangement. A motion sensor light switch is a great way of saving energy and helping out the ...

· The PIR is expected to have Live (brown), Neutral (blue), and Switched Live (likely red for that sensor). A light normally has just Live and Neutral (and either might also have Earth on a yellow-green wire.) A wire from a light to a sensor would be expected to have a switched live conductor as well, so that might be the black wire on the light, but it's difficult to determine without knowing ...

· I've just bought a pir sensor from homebase to install on my garage light. Cleverly, I've already lost the instructions. What I have is a strip light with the feed from the FCU directly into it and seemingly a separate wire to/from the switch. The pir has a standard connector block inside for LNE.
· That heat is detected by the PIR sensor as infrared light. Once you come within the preset range for the light’s sensor, it will turn the light on. If this sounds like the best solution for you, we recommend one of the three bulbs below. All three bulbs can turn on/off based on motion sensing.
Some lights with sensors built in can also be wired this way, provided that both L and SL are available at the light fitting. In all cases, the total load of all lights connected must be less than the rating of the motion sensor. Variations. Depending on the location of the sensor and lights it may be more convenient to connect one or more lights directly to the PIR sensor. For both diagrams ...
This is a common project where an existing light fixture is wired to be controlled by a outdoor sensor. Motion Detector Sensor The sensor requires power and the sensor unit will provide sensor controlled power to the existing light fixture. Dusk to Dawn Outdoor light motion detector light fixtures are also available with the Dusk to Dawn feature which allows two levels of light: A lower level when motion is …
How do you add two motion sensors to an existing light circuit? In order to have more than one motion sensor or motion detector turn on the same group of lights it is necessary to wire the motion sensors in parallel with each other, in the same manner as the lights are wired. As long as at least one motion sensor is detecting motion, the lights will remain on. IT IS INTERESTING: What 3 US ...
