activate each individual device, such as a light, blind or heating element. This conventional approach relies on hundreds of power
cables to effectively distribute the intelligence around the building.
In the EIB system, a sensor or control device such as a light switch sends a control signal over a twin-core data cable, or bus, to
an actuator, which then controls a device locally. This approach yields a true, two-wire system, without the need for hundreds of
wires providing separate circuits between a central control point and each light or other device.
System configuration and commissioning is achieved by connecting a PC equipped with specialist EIB software to any point in the
system via a serial interface. This provides a uniquely flexible approach, according to Dan Shrimpton of DRS Electrics, the electrical
contractor on the Gerrards Cross project.
Installation and commissioning is also straightforward, since the EIB approach is a true, two-wire system. 'For a contractor, it's
brilliantly simple to install,' says Shrimpton. 'This is the eighth house I've done and it takes around three days to
commission the whole thing.'
The Mentmore project currently uses the ABB system to control heating and lighting, but the same system could also integrate
security alarms and functions, as well as piping entertainment signals around the building. 'There's a lot more it can do,' says Peck.
'We're still learning.'

EIB - Intelligent Installation System
Overview
'There are no other systems that compare with it. It's
far more advanced than anything else I've come
across,' he says. 'Once other systems are set up, it's
really difficult to change them. But with ABB's i-bus
EIB system, it's easy to reprogram it to perform
differently at a later date.'

patterns. Residents can obviously override these settings
at any time if they prefer.

a room may change over time. Individual
rooms can each be reprogrammed with
