What smart lighting control is

Smart lighting goes far beyond switching on a bulb from your phone. With smart lighting installation in your home in Seville you can dim each zone, save scenes that change all the light in a room with one touch, set schedules and have the lights respond to your presence. All without losing the basics: the wall switch keeps working for everyone, including visitors and holiday guests who have never seen the app.

What you can do

  • Switch the lights on from your phone, at home or away, and check none have been left on.
  • Dim each zone: living room spotlights, kitchen LED strip, bedroom lamp.
  • Create lighting scenes: dinner, cinema, reading, cleaning or night.
  • Set schedules: the porch that lights up at dusk, a soft hallway light in the early hours.
  • React to presence, with sensors that switch the light on when you enter and off when you leave.
  • Control by voice with Alexa, Google Home or Apple Home.
  • Simulate presence while you are away, switching lights on and off naturally.
  • Change the tone of the light, from warm to neutral, with tunable white fittings.

Lighting scenes: the part people use most

A scene carries out several actions with a single command. Some examples we leave programmed:

  • Dinner: living room spotlights at 40 %, table lamp on, sideboard LED strip at minimum.
  • Cinema: everything off except the indirect light behind the television.
  • Good night: turns off the whole home and leaves a soft guide light in the hallway.
  • Leaving home: turns off all the lights with one touch by the door.

Scenes are triggered from a wall keypad, the phone, by voice or by an automation.

How smart lighting installation works

There are two routes, depending on your home:

  • Without building work, with wireless home automation: smart switches or modules in the existing boxes, communicating by Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi or Matter. This is the option for finished flats. We explain it in wireless smart home.
  • With a wired system: in a new build or full renovation, with a bus such as KNX and scene keypads, as part of a complete smart home installation.

In both cases we check that the fittings are dimmable. With LED, the lamp or driver must support dimming and the dimmer must be compatible; otherwise flicker and buzzing appear. We also advise on dimmable downlights, light fittings and LED strip lighting. If you only need a sensor or a dimmer with no connectivity, see motion sensors and dimmers.

How we work

  1. We walk through the home with you and decide which zones to dim, which scenes you want and with which assistant.
  2. We check fittings, boxes and the neutral wire, and tell you if any driver or lamp needs changing.
  3. We install the switches, modules or keypads and the hub if needed.
  4. We programme scenes, schedules and presence and adjust light levels at night, which is when they are used.
  5. We show you the app and leave the wall keypads clearly labelled.

Regulations

Lighting control installations comply with ITC-BT-51 on automation systems and ITC-BT-44 on lighting equipment, both part of the Spanish Low Voltage Electrical Regulations.

New homes and flats in Seville

In new-build homes in Entrenúcleos, Palmas Altas or Sevilla Este, which are handed over with light points but no fittings, it is the best moment: we choose dimmable fittings from the start and leave the scenes programmed before you move in. In furnished flats in Nervión or Los Remedios, the wireless solution gives you living room scenes and voice control without touching a wall. And in villas in Tomares or Mairena, the garden lighting joins the same system. Everything we do in smart homes is on the smart home page.

Frequently asked questions

Smart bulbs or smart switches?

Smart bulbs are easy to fit, but if someone turns off the wall switch they stop responding. Smart switches or modules control the light from the wall, the phone and by voice at the same time, and work with any lamp. In most cases we recommend switches or modules.

What is a lighting scene?

It is a set of actions carried out together with a single touch or command: for example, the dinner scene dims the living room spotlights to 40 % and turns on the LED strip on the sideboard. Scenes are triggered from a keypad, the phone, by voice or automatically at a set time.

Can I turn the lights at home on from my phone while I am away?

Yes, if the system is connected to the internet through its hub or the home network. It is useful for simulating presence while you travel or checking you have not left a light on. Inside the home, the switches and scenes work even if the internet fails.

Does it work with my LED downlights?

If the downlights or their drivers are dimmable, yes, with a compatible smart dimmer. If they are not, they can be switched on and off smartly but not dimmed. We check your fittings and tell you what needs changing to dim them without flicker.

How much does smart lighting cost?

Roughly 60 to 120 euros plus 21 % VAT per point installed and configured, plus the device. If the lighting is part of a complete smart home system, a flat of about 60 m2 starts at about 1,500 euros plus VAT with lights, shutters and phone control.

Can smart lighting make my holiday home look occupied?

Yes. Presence simulation switches lights on and off in a natural pattern while you are away, and you can check from abroad that nothing has been left on. Combined with motorised shutters, the house behaves as if someone were living there.
