My optimism at Leviton's recent announcements have been muted since they
are not using two way control of their scenes. Therefore, I would like to
put off the lighting control decision for as long as possible. This means
that I need to run control wires to each switch and socket.
What kind of control wires should I run? Cat 5? Shielded Twisted Pair? What
does RS-485 need?
I was expecting to run a daisy chain control wire in parallel with each
circuit from the breaker box. Therefore, I would have as many RS-485 runs as
I have circuits for lighting loads and sockets. Any comments?
