In non-dimmed applications, branch circuits are often installed with three circuits sharing a common neutral conductor, where each of the three circuits is on a different phase. This is known as a “multiwire” branch circuit arrangement. It is used to save costs because only four total conductors...

Problem: Dimmers set to switched mode will not shut off. Answer: Sensor 3.1 had a software bug that held dimmers in switched mode to 15 percent. This was fixed in 3.11 software. Workaround: Set non-motorized loads to non-dim. Sites using motors on d20's should think about using R20s regardless of...

Question: What is the Best ETC dimmer to use to control a Fan or Motor? Answer: SCR-based dimmers are the best to use in this situation based on the fact that it may receive a non-linear kick-back in voltage. For this reason the D15 and D20 modules are your best choice. This kick-back may damage the...

We often get asked about wire temperature ratings and how they relate to dimmer rack wiring and the allowable number of circuits in a conduit or wireway. While the ultimate authority on wire size, temperature ratings, and conduit fill is the project electrical engineer, and then the local inspector,...

If your relays are chattering or not firing in your Sensor, Sensor+ or Unison rack there may be a problem with the neutral wire on your signal distro card. Make sure that the neutral wire is present and connected on both ends. This problem can also cause ELV10 modules to not work correctly in test mode...

When equipment goes bad out in the field, it's often extremely helpful if the owner/end user can keep track of the circumstances of the failure. This is especially true when the problem is intermittent and might not occur when the technician is present. Service Technicians are exceptionally skillful...

Yes. Please contact your local ETC dealer to order ETC Part Number: PT143. This is a small can of beige spray paint. It is important to note that the original paint that was used to paint your racks at ETC was applied through an electro-static powder coat process and is not a liquid paint. The paint...
