Base assembly lifts smart grid lighting performance

This takes the existing LUMAWISE base assembly to the next level of performance required for smart street light controls by integrating a switch-mode AC-DC power supply, 16A switching relay, and metal-oxide varistor (MOV) surge protector onto the NEMA/ANSI C136.41-compliant base.

The enhanced base provides commonly used DC voltages to a system’s control PCB, which stacks on top of the assembly using the integral standoffs and standard wire jumpers.

RoHS-compliant, the LUMAWISE Endurance N Enhanced base provides a standard mechanical and electrical platform that supports design reuse, modularity and end-of-line customisation across designers’ outdoor lighting control products.

The base is available with an energy metering header in 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and 50/60 Hz options, with or without a zero-cross circuit.
