Discuss Occupancy sensor.. No neutral required? in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

All the one's I've ever fitted have needed a Neutral.

I would assume that a neutral is needed for the PIR control circuit and relay / contactor
 
I have used no neutral presence detectors a few times. Cant be sure of the manufacture as im not in work but i think they where from a company called CP Electronics.

I can confirm on Friday and give you the part No of the one we use, have fitted many and had no issues.

Sounds good. I'd appreciate that. Thanks
 
You can get these in senate. It works without a neutral as you connect a capacitor across line and neutral in the light fitting this then trickle charges the internal battery in the switch.
