IES Vancouver Presents: Avoiding NLC Deployment Pitfalls with Steve Mesh

April 22, 2021

Date: April 29th at 12pm PST.

Speaker: Steve Mesh

Networked Lighting Control (NLC) systems have gotten simpler and easier to install and commission. Even so, these are still systems with a variety of parts that must be installed correctly in order for the NLC to work properly. In this presentation, we’ll review a research project where four different NLCs were installed on one floor of a large office building. The presenter was on-site to observe the installation of some of these systems and documented problems that arose. We will review some of these “issues” as well as solutions that will help you to avoid these types of pitfalls on an NLC deployment — whether that’s for a retrofit or new construction project.
