Four Sony CCU-D50 control units. The camera control unit (CCU) is typically part of a live television broadcast chain. It is responsible for powering the professional video camera, handling signals sent over the camera cable to and from the camera, and can be used to control various camera parameters remotely.
A light fixture (US English), light fitting (UK English), or luminaire is an electrical lighting device containing one or more light sources, such as lamps, and all the accessory components required for its operation to provide illumination to the environment. [1] All light fixtures have a fixture body and one or more lamps.
The GU24 fitting is intended to maintain the energy efficiency of the light by preventing an occupant from using an incandescent bulb instead of a CFL. Adapters to use incandescent bulbs in a GU24 fitting are illegal in the State of California as they would be a fire hazard in fixtures designed for the lower heat output of a CFL bulb. [2]
A light fixture or luminaire is a technical and professional term for the electrical fixtures used to hold a lamp—a light bulb—the light source. Wikimedia Commons has media related to Lighting fixtures .
Lighting circuits, which typically have lower power requirements, are usually radially wired, confusingly sometimes called "loop" wiring. In both ring and radial circuits, the circuit wiring starts at a consumer unit or distribution board , and traverses in turn a number of sockets or devices (point-to-point style), before terminating.
Common circuit diagram symbols (US ANSI symbols) An electronic symbol is a pictogram used to represent various electrical and electronic devices or functions, such as wires, batteries, resistors, and transistors, in a schematic diagram of an electrical or electronic circuit. These symbols are largely standardized internationally today, but may ...
In a light commercial environment, more frequent wiring changes can be expected, large apparatus may be installed and special conditions of heat or moisture may apply. Heavy industries have more demanding wiring requirements, such as very large currents and higher voltages, frequent changes of equipment layout, corrosive, or wet or explosive ...
A common application is in lighting, where it allows the control of lamps from multiple locations, for example in a hallway, stairwell, or large room. In contrast to a simple light switch , which is a single pole, single throw (SPST) switch, multiway switching uses switches with one or more additional contacts and two or more wires are run ...
