Introduction
This is a beginning entry dedicated to the light setup in Diedenoort-NURDSpace. Original configuration: The three wall switches by the front door operate, from left to right: The ventilation The right-hand bank of lights (with back to door) including the 3 on the hook around the corner The left hand bank of lights
Current configuration
- The left hand switch is for the single emergency light on the left closest to the door.
- The right hand switch does nothing.
- The fluorescent bulbs are connected together into 4 numbered groups:
- The 6 in the dead centre of the space
- The 2 over the printer desks (currently disabled)
- The 3 over the desks at the far windows
- The 5 closest to the door, on the near side of the I-beam, excluding the emergency light (only 2 of them are currently working).
These 4 channels are plugged into the lighting controller suspended in a white iron grid from the ceiling. This is plugged into a ceiling socket on a ? electrical group.
