NSi 20002 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the 20002 photocontrol mount, and does it come with wiring leads?
It mounts on a 1/2 inch Lexan stem for conduit mounting, and it ships with 6 inch leads for splicing in a box or fixture wiring compartment. You supply the 1/2 inch conduit fitting or fixture knuckle it threads into.
2) How much LED load can this NSi photocontrol switch?
Load ratings are 1040-1385VA LED, 2080-2770VA ballast, and 3470-4620W tungsten, with the range tracking the 208 to 277 volt supply (the higher figure at the higher voltage). For an LED retrofit, total the driver VA on the circuit and stay under that LED figure, not the tungsten number, which is much higher and only applies to incandescent flood and patio lamps.
3) Will a stem-mount photocontrol like this hold up outdoors in a cold climate?
The Lexan housing is rated for operation from -40 to +140 F, so it covers northern winters and hot roof or wall-pack locations. Lexan is the impact-resistant housing choice over a metal shell for exposed exterior mounting.
4) At what light level does the NSi 20002 turn lights on and off?
Turn-on is 1 to 5 footcandles and turn-off is 3 to 15 footcandles. It is a fixed-position control, so there is no sensitivity adjustment screw; if you need to dial the trip point in on a specific site, you want an adjustable photocontrol instead.
5) Why do the lights take a minute to come on after it gets dark, and will headlights cycle the fixture?
There is a built-in 2 minute timing range. The CdS cell plus that delay keeps passing headlights, lightning, or a brief shadow from short-cycling the lighting load, so a short delay at dusk and dawn is normal operation, not a fault.
6) Is this NSi photocontrol UL listed for a commercial job spec?
It carries cULus listing, covering both US and Canadian requirements, which is what most exterior lighting specs call for on a line-voltage photocontrol.
7) Does this photocontrol add measurable standby load to a lighting panel?
Draw is under 1 watt in operation, so even a few dozen of them across a property add negligible load. Useful if you are tallying parasitic draw for an energy audit.
