Lighting controls are increasingly being used due to the myriad benefits they offer. Controls substantially decrease energy consumption by about 50% in currently existing buildings and nearly 35% in new constructions. Further, the rapid returns on initial investments make lighting controls a more lucrative market. Lighting controls also experience a major shift towards breaker-based panels with remote controllable feature. Conventional relay based control manufacturers are quickly developing those panels to address the growing preferences of end-users.
