The project in detail

For the property manager of a residence in Val-de-Marne, we came in for a repair: the twilight switch no longer worked and, at nightfall, the residence stayed in the dark.

On the roof, the old ABB LS-D sensor, yellowed and out of service, was removed and replaced with a new ABB TLs sensor. In the board, we connected an ABB twilight module, adjustable from 2 to 200 lux, which controls the exterior lighting. At nightfall, the residence is lit again.
