Introduction :-

Solar Photo Voltaic (SPV) Dusk Dawn System is an energy saving device used for automatic switching of street lighting systems, making proper use of grid power and increasing the life of the lamps by switching the street lights for a optimum period. The system is highly reliable and efficient for years of continuous flaw-less operation.    The operation of the system is based on sensing the ambient light level which actuates the electronic controller to switch ON the street lights  in  the  evening and switch OFF in the morning. The sensor which is a small Solar photovoltaic  panel  is  totally maintenance free and encapsulated  in  an hermetically sealed housing making it more reliable even in adverse atmospheric conditions. 

The  system  has  the  advantage of automatic setting of switching timings irrespective of whether it is winter or summer,  thus  making  it  a  totally  unmanned operation. Once  set  for  a  particular  ambient  light  level,  the setting  remains unchanged throughout the year.
