The Clipsal C – Bus system is a microprocessor based wiring system to control lighting and other electrical services.

Whether on/off control of a lighting circuit or analogue type control such as dimming electronic fluorescent ballasts, C-Bus can be used to control and automate virtually any type of electrical load. C-Bus information is held within individual units rather than one central point. This ensures optimum communication speed and reliability. Whilst a computer is not necessary for normal C-Bus operation, PC based control and management software is available and provides additional flexibility to clients requiring this type of control.

Clipsal C-Bus is suitable for a wide range of applications:

Commercial lighting Control
