The purpose of this procedure is to define the step by step method to implement the
correct practices for the precommissioning & commissioning of “Lighting Control
System”through the guidelines contained herein so as to ensure that the job execution
complies with the project requirements and serves the intended function to satisfactory
level.

TOOLS / EQUIPMENT

 Portable Hand tools


 Step Ladder
 Lap top PC with RS-232 cable

Precommissioning Procedure for


Lighting Control System
1. 7.1. Ensure that the Lighting Control System devices & panels installation are
complete and mechanical completion is approved.
2. Ensure that no damage has occurred between mechanical completion & pre-
commissioning.
3. Repair / replace damaged components, if any.
4. Ensure the Lighting Control, Core Control modules & the panels are properly tagged
& identified.
5. Ensure that the wiring termination to the Lighting control Panels are complete.
6. Ensure that the cables are pretested for continuity before termination.
7. Ensure that the earthing of Lighting Control panel has been completed.
8. Ensure that installation of light fittings fed from lighting control panels/ modules are
complete including termination.
9. Ensure that the cable installation & termination is complete in all the LCMs, CCMs,
dimming control,line coupler, switches, area couplers and central battery system.
10. Ensure the cables are secured well on to the connections to avoid system
misbehavior due to any loose connection.
11. Ensure that dimmable ballast are installed in the light fixtures where dimming of
lights are required.
12. Ensure the lighting system computer is properly installed and the installation is
approved.
13. Ensure the system software & the configuration parameters are available.
14. Ensure the lighting control system is interfaced with BMS & interlocked with fire
alarm system.

Commissioning Procedure for Lighting


Control System
1. Ensure that all the pre-commissioning checks are carried out successfully & are
approved.
2. Manually override each circuit using the override ON/OFF switch provided for each
circuit in the relay output module.
3. Test the respective lighting circuits to be ON as per the approved electrical load
schedule.
4. Switch ON the power supply to the lighting control panel (LCP) with system devices
for each EIB bus line.
5. Check for the communication of all devices i.e. bus couplers, relay output
modules/lighting control modules, twilight switch, etc., with the LCP having the system
devices i.e. power supply module.
6. Download the application software in each of the devices (bus couplers and actuator
modules) via a note book PC connected to the RS-232 interface module.
7. Download the application software to the line couplers located in the LCP with
system devices & check for the communication between the line couplers.
8. Test the software loops as per the programmed parameters.
9. Switch ON & OFF the individual gang of the push button switches installed
(wherever applicable) & check that the respective programmed circuits are switched ON
& OFF accordingly.
10. Remove the communication bus cable from the power supply module feeding the
bus devices & check for the response of the individual actuators to work in the ‘fail safe’
mode (ON/OFF/As it is now programmed for AS IT IS mode).
11. Switch ON the power supply for the standalone operation of the lighting control
system.
12. Program the TP controller located in the control room to switch ON & OFF the
individual groups as programmed & check the respective programmed circuits are
switched ON & OFF accordingly.
13. Edit the programmed TP-controller if required & then check for the response of the
individual devices & individual circuits.
14. Program the timer groups of the TP controller as per project requirements for the
standalone operation of the lighting control system.
15. Check for the communications of the line couplers from the lighting PC located in the
Central Control Room.
16. Check floor plans on the lighting graphics as per the as built drawings on the lighting
PC located in the Central Control Room.
17. Check the lighting circuits/luminaries status (ON/OFF) in each floor plan graphics.
18. Manually over ride (light ON/OFF) the lighting circuits through textual graphics on the
PC & verify the lighting circuits status i.e., the color of the lighting fixture is changing or
not in the floor plan graphics.
19. Check the lighting circuits switch ON/OFF timings schedule on the lighting PC.
20. The interlock of the lighting system with the fire alarm system shall be checked. It
shall be ensured all the emergency lighting circuits are switched ON in case of fire
signal.
21. The interface between the Lighting control system & the BMS system shall also be
checked by triggering a lighting circuit from the BMS work station.
