A guide for working out which control unit is required to switch a set number of lights on and off.
Match the switching load to the correct control unit. Running currents for Maxibright Compact power packs are as follows: |
|
Sodium power pack |
Compact |
|
250w |
1.25 amps |
|
400w |
2 amps |
|
600w |
3 amps |
|
1000w |
5 amps |
|
For example, 2 x 1000w sodium power packs = 10 amps running current (switching load), so a 10 amp control unit should be selected. When a four-gang socket is used the maximum load per socket is 13 amps each. |
