The electricity distribution network comprises a plurality of interconnection lines for the distribution of electricity among a plurality of interconnection boxes. At least some of said interconnection boxes are combined with a control unit for detection of stray voltage, comprising a transmitter to transmit to a receiver of at least one collecting unit a signal relating to any dispersion.

Electricity distribution network with stray voltage monitoring and method of transmission of information on said network

A method for controlling the operation of a lighting unit comprising a plurality of lighting elements and a dimmable power supply unit with an output for adjusting the brightness of at least some of the lighting elements. The method provides that for at least one dimmer setting at least one real electrical parameter is measured, as a function of the absorption of the lighting elements and that the measured electrical parameter is compared with at least one previously-stored theoretical value.

Lighting unit, a system comprising it and a control method thereof

The lighting installation comprises an electrical power supply line () and at least one lighting device (A;B;C) with controllable light emission, connected to said electrical power supply line (). Each lighting device is associated with a control unit (A,B,C) comprising a device () for receiving data transmitted along the electrical power supply line () and devices () for generating a light emission regulation signal. The electrical power supply line is connected to a controller () with a means () of transmitting data toward the control unit (A,B,C). Additionally, the controller is programmed to send at least one data element to the control unit for regulating the emission of the corresponding lighting device.
