Wiring multiple PIRs to one final circuit?

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Am I right in thinking that one can wire multiple PIRs switching individual light fitting in a single final circuit? For example, few full height cubicle with dedicated PIR and light fittings but all of them are being fed by one final circuit. As long as the load of the lights are below the rating of the MCB.


Thanks.

    Good point

    I set the light sensor to minium for each PIR so that they only activate when the light falls off.
