    Reminder: Clocks Go Back on October 27th – Don’t Forget to Adjust Your Lighting Systems

    0
    By Future Group on September 25, 2024 Industry News, Lighting, News

    With the clocks set to go back an hour on Sunday, October 27th, it’s a good time for block managers and on-site teams to check that their timeclock operated lighting systems are properly commissioned to accommodate the change in sunrise-sunset hours. As the evenings get darker earlier, it is essential to make sure that timeclocks controlling dusk-to-dawn lighting are updated to match the change in daylight hours.

    Failing to do so could leave key areas like stairwells, entrances, and pathways unlit at the times they are needed most, which could lead to safety issues.

    Avoid Unlit Areas – Take Action Now

    If your site doesn’t have staff available to handle these changes, it’s important to act in advance. Our Lighting & Electrical Team is here to help with a full recommissioning of your timeclocks, so residents won’t come home to dark, unlit spaces. Get ahead of the change now to avoid any hassle later!

    Thinking About an Upgrade?

    This time of year, is also a great opportunity to think about upgrading old time-clock systems. New technology, like photocells and occupancy sensors, can save time and effort by automatically adjusting to changing light levels. That means fewer manual adjustments throughout the year and more efficient lighting overall.

    At Future Lighting, we’re ready to help modernize your lighting controls, ensuring your building is equipped with the latest technology to save both time, energy and money.

    Get in Touch:

    If you need help with time-clock adjustments or want to discuss upgrading to a smarter system, our team is here to assist. Let’s keep your property safe, well-lit, and efficient as the nights draw in.
