System design types
Distributed (Panelized Lighting)
A distributed lighting design is nearly identical to a centralized
design, but includes two or more Control4 panel locations
throughout the home. In this design, electrical wiring is routed
from the breaker box to designated panel locations, and then to
the loads. The advantage of this topology is that the Panelized
Lighting modules can be distributed, saving wiring costs and
utilizing spaces in closets and equipment rooms around the home
rather than in one large equipment room.
Recommendations
Similar to centralized lighting systems, a distributed lighting
system is ideal for new construction and is often used in the
largest residential and commercial lighting projects. They are
especially convenient in buildings with multiple breaker locations.
