Functionalityand advantages
DALI PLC | Functionality of
• A device that facilitates communication of forward and
backward DALI commands through mains wiring
• Installation requires at least one DALI PLC Bridge and
another DALI PLC Bridge, or a DALI PLC-IN implemented
directly in the luminaire
• The luminaires should be installed toghether with DALI
PLC on one phase
• No need for a special driver or dedicated luminaire; any
DALI driver works
• Control of a group of luminaires connected on one DALI
bus / Control of luminaires equipped with DALI drivers but
without any DALI network / Control of luminaires equipped
with DALI a driver and integrated DALI PLC-IN module

Applications
DALI PLC| Applications
Hypermarkets / factories
Wherever it would prove to
be too costly to install
additional DALI wiring due to
the size of the installation.
Historical buildings
Buildings where
reconstruction and
modification of walls and
ceilings is restricted or
forbidden.
Residential buildings / hotels
Buildings with existing mains
wiring where it is beneficial to
easily update luminaires to
those with advanced DALI /
Tunable White functionality.
Street illumination
DALI control of street lighting
through already existing
mains infrastructure.

Technical parameters
• A maximum of 64 DALI devices with unique address
can be connected to a single network
• No extra DALI Power supply is needed – DALI
Power supply already integrated (DALI PLC-IN)
• 3 phase support, over voltage protection (DALI PLC
Bridge)
• Communication error source detection (DALI PLC
Bridge)
• DALI 12–25 V DC, output current <20 mA
• PLC 110/230 V AC, input current <20 mA
