Default Low Voltage Lighting
Hi all, I have a lighting system which has three mains voltage exterior spotlights which are controlled via three seperate 12v PIRs. Trouble is the control unit which connects the two elements is caput........the transformer has given out. Could anyone advise where I might get a replacement control unit which will provide two or three zones and enable me to connect mains and low voltage?

You could always rewire the 12 volt signal sections and install 230 Volt PIR units.Bypassing the existing interface unit.

Or. You can build your own interface unit. An electronic one via Farnell or Maplin Logic Controllers or semi mechanical with a relay switching mechanism. As for getting a replacement. Since you have called this forum the manufacturer must be out of business.
