Power Panels
HomeWorks QS offers a balance between reducing controls on the wall and simple installation.
Localized design can replace switches in a room with system dimmers and switches. Centralized
design minimizes the controls on the wall by using dimming power panels located out of sight.
Localized
Dimmers and switches provide familiar control
and operation in every room.
Keypads at convenient control locations adjust
lights and shades throughout the home.
Using standard line-voltage wiring, a whole-
home light control system can be added to
new or existing homes.
Centralized
Remote dimming panels power all home
lighting rather than local dimmers and switches.
Keypad-only design minimizes wall clutter and
provides maximum programming flexibility.
This design is well-suited for new construction
or major renovation.
Hybrid
Remote dimming panels power lighting in
rooms with multiple lighting zones.
Keypads minimize wall clutter and
provide maximum programming flexibility
in these rooms.
Local dimmers provide simple, intuitive control
in kids rooms and guest areas, with fewer
lights per room.

Consider Control Station Locations and Integration

Electrical and building codes provide a starting point for
your control stations.
Most codes require an entrance control to each room.
A dimmer or switch can control a zone in a room.
A keypad can control many zones in a room, or throughout the home.
Control stations can be documented on the plan and entered in the
HomeWorks QS design tool.
