What does pir in lighting stand for?

PIR = passive infared They detect motion and then activate a switch to turn things on and off


Why LDR used in PIR sensor?

Can you spur a double socket from a PIR light with 2.5 cable?

Yes, you can spur a double socket from a PIR light using 2.5mm² cable, provided that the circuit is rated to handle the additional load. However, ensure that the total load on the circuit does not exceed the rating of the PIR light and the circuit breaker. It's also essential to comply with local electrical regulations and standards, and consider consulting a qualified electrician for safety.


How do you adjust the timing on a pir light sensor?

To adjust the timing on a PIR (Passive Infrared) light sensor, locate the sensitivity and time delay settings, usually found on the sensor itself. Use a small screwdriver to turn the dial or adjust the settings according to the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, the time delay can be set to various durations, ranging from a few seconds to several minutes, depending on your needs. After adjustments, test the sensor to ensure it activates and deactivates as desired.


What is pir?

A PIR normally refers to a passive infra-red detector. These are the detectors typically used in security systems to detect movement of people. They are normally found with a small translucent window in the front of the detector. The detector works by measuring the infra-red radiation (heat) from the field of view in front of the translucent lens. When the radiation levels change or a heat source moves, the output of the detector is triggered. Normal security use will detect a person moving in the field of view but they can be far more sensitive and detect movements of far smaller animals.
