This will help the so-called sidereal clock. It is a device used to control electrical circuits, operating in a pre-programmed periodicity.

Energy consumption reduced by up to 30%.

– Thanks to it, you can control the duration of the lighting. The time of turning on and off the light sources is set on it. The clocks installed on more than half of our lights allowed us to put in a night break, says Kilgan. Energy needs to be conserved and that’s what pauses are for.

Using the devices will reduce the electricity bill used to power the lights by up to 30 percent.
