your nEXT STEpSThe Essential Checklist will give you plenty to think about when it comes to your electrical plans. Take notes, circle products or mark your pages; whatever your preferred method, you'll probably have an array of products in mind. “What’s the next step?” you ask. There are four possible scenarios, depending on how you have chosen to build or renovate your home.

1. you’ve got a builderyou’ve got your dream home design and contracted a builder. Some steps to consider are: • You need to discuss which contractor to use with your builder – the earlier the better. The builder may already have a licensed electrical contractor to do your electrical work or you may have a preferred licensed contractor; perhaps one you have used before, or you prefer to use a Clipsal endorsed contractor.

• Typically, your builder will have a standard electrical plan for your home. However, you may want to modify these plans to include custom features you want for your home.

Builders may respond in one of the following ways to your plans:

A. They could refer you to the licensed electrical contractor. The contractor will talk you through the plans and tailor it where possible.

B. Perhaps they have a selection centre where you can see lots of different electrical products and solutions. Ask to go through the Essential Checklist with the selection centre consultant.

C. They might use Clipspec, Clipsal’s easy-to-use electrical design software. A licensed electrical contractor using Clipspec can go through all your electrical requirements.

D. The builder may discourage any changes you want to the plan. Ask to speak to the licensed electrical contractor to find out the costs of your personalised plan.

2. you’re using an architectyou’ve talked to your architect and your house reflects your lifestyle needs and is within your budget. When you plan your home’s electrical layout consider the following: • You need to discuss which contractor to use with your architect– the earlier the better. The architect may already have a licensed electrical contractor to do the electrical work. You may have a preferred licensed contractor; perhaps one you have used before, or you prefer to use a Clipsal endorsed contractor.

• If you haven’t looked through the Essential Checklist with your architect it’s not too late to go back and speak to them about what you want.

• The architect will provide the licensed electrical contractor with the electrical plan. The contractor will complete the wiring installation that best suits your new home or renovation.

3. you’re the owner and builderIf you’ve decided to supervise the building project yourself look through the Essential Checklist to choose all your electrical requirements. once you’ve made your decision you will need to find a licensed electrical contractor.• You can save time with a visit to clipsal.com and use the Electrician Locator. All electrical contractors listed are Clipsal approved, ensuring the highest quality installation of your product selection.

4. DIy for your own homeonce you’ve looked through the Essential Checklist, there are probably a number of improvements you want to make to your home. • Visit clipsal.com and use the Electrician Locator to find your nearest Clipsal endorsed contractor.

• Meet your contractor and discuss how to incorporate the products into your plans.

Break-ins, house fires, electrical accidents. When planning to build or renovate your home, safety is one area that must not be compromised. Clipsal’s comprehensive range of safety products include everything from smoke alarms and Safety Switches, through to surge protected power outlets just to name a few. Installing these products will mean you can sleep better at night, knowing you and your family are protected.

41


1. Safety Switch Twin power outletClipsal’s well-known Safety Switches are also available in twin power outlets. They are perfect for existing homes and although only one Safety Switch is compulsory in new homes, it’s wise to use separate Safety Switches for each circuit. That way, one incident won’t cut the power to your whole house.

2. Surge protectorCaused by accidents or electrical storms, surges often damage expensive electronic circuitry in equipment such as televisions and computers. Individual surge protected power outlets are available to separately control devices. However to protect every power point in your home against surges ask your electrician for a switchboard-mounted option.

3. Thermal Trip power outletThe Thermal Trip is an innovative power point that comes loaded with benefits. Designed to shutdown power to a device if overheating is detected, it protects your wiring, prevents fires from starting and avoids any further damage to the device if there is a fault or problem. You can reset from the power point straight away, rather than having to go outside to the mains switchboard. Possibly the safest power point on the market!

4. Circuit protectionThere is no better protection than the famous Clipsal Safety Switch; an innovation that has been saving lives since the 70’s. Clipsal’s well-known switchboard version offers protection to every power point in the home. Although compulsory when a new home is built, it pays to check if your existing home has one installed.

5. Smoke alarmsCorrectly located, Clipsal smoke alarms give early warning of fire and provide you with time to safely escape before the house fills with toxic smoke.

Essential ExtrasFail Safe Home Emergency LightStumbling around in the dark can be potentially dangerous. Avoid any nasty mishaps with Clipsal’s emergency light, which automatically switches on upon detecting a power failure.

portable rCD power outletClipsal’s portable RCD Power Outlets are great for that short-term DIY project. Offering you a portable solution that is flexible and won’t compromise on safety.

Surveillance CameraHelps to scare off potential burglars, as well as keeping an extra eye on the kids. Perfect for watching them playing in the pool when you can’t leave the living room or observe your baby asleep whilst entertaining. Whatever the application, for peace of mind make sure your home has a Clipsal Surveillance Camera.

Interior Styling and Colour Selectionnot sure of the difference between interior design or decorating, or where to start with the colour selection process on your project?Contact an interior designer or follow these basic steps.

Create a colour scheme, develop a materials boardThe ultimate goal of interior design is to unite all the components of a room to create harmony. Balance is achieved through careful selection of colours, textures and features. The aim of the materials board is to help visualise the finished space, see our example left and compare it with the final result on the previous page.

Create Harmony and BalanceHarmony and balance are achieved when the visual weight is distributed as evenly as possible. Develop a materials board by mixing and matching your colour samples. Many start this process with a floor tile sample, a piece of carpet, bench top colour or wall colour. The first piece you select is the building block for the scheme. Start with harmonious colours, shapes and elements and then consider adding texture piece by piece.

Create a Focal pointEvery room should have one element that acts as a focal point to draw your eye as you enter. For example, key pieces of furniture, a feature wall, or architectural detail. For the kitchen it could be the bench top or the splashback. All other elements of design, colour and texture that are selected interact with this focal point – when adding extra elements keep the focus on balance with the focal point.

FunctionIt is helpful to include other items that will form part of the scheme. Add illustrations such as switches and ceiling fans to your scheme to get a better understanding of how the colour and functional benefits will interact in the space. Don’t forget to consider how interior, ambient or natural lighting can be incorporated to highlight the visual and functional living needs.

If developing schemes for the whole house then label each materials board with its room title. Tip: start with the core scheme and finalise it before developing the rest.

When your materials board is complete, you will be surprised at how well it represents the finished scheme - your unique set of colours, textural contrasts and array of patterns all working together. Any imbalances - too dark, too neutral, too many shiny surfaces or not enough texture should show on your board.

By taking the time now to correctly choose the right colours for your home and personality, means you will have a home or space that you truly love. Test the colour scheme with friends or family and modify it as required at this stage of the process. Changes after your building or renovation has started can be quite costly. Enjoy designing!

This is the fun part of the building process where you combine all your thoughts and ideas to what your home will look like.• Collect as many samples as possible.

• Don’t discount options until you see them next to other elements as you are building your theme.

• Add your personality to your home.

• Choose a base colour and work from there.

• Accents of blue create a calming element to the space.

• Black and white used together in contrast can create quite a striking contemporary look.

• Neutral tones are classic and make your design timeless.

Don’t forget to consider your switches.

Clipsal have an extensive range of options to choose from to suit and enhance every space.

What is a smart home?

Home networkingHome networking, often referred to as “smart wiring”, is the cabling infrastructure that delivers your Internet, free-to-air TV, pay TV, DVDs and telephone throughout your home. We live in a demanding world packed full of information, entertainment and communication; all of which plays a vital role in our busy day-to-day lives. Home networking ensures that all of these technologies can be utilised right throughout the home, therefore maximising the potential and value of this feature rich content.

Multi-room audioMulti-room audio is a system that simply allows each music location (music zone) to have its own local source, allowing for different music in separate rooms - just plug in your iPod or computer and away you go.

C-Bus Home ControlC-Bus home control, as the name suggests, is about automating commands within the home. For some it may be something as simple as automatically controlling a few lights. For others, security may be the central application. Still others may choose to install advanced controllers. But by basic definition, we tend to refer to home control as anything that gives you remote or automatic control of devices around the home.

Home Gateway – Wiser™ Home ControlWiser Home Control is the latest home gateway product to join the Clipsal C-Bus range of home control products. It brings a whole new level of functionality and connectivity throughout the home by bringing together electrical, multi-media and telecommunication technologies into a single user friendly device such as an iPhone or laptop, to create the ultimate smart home.

Imagine having the ability to receive an email or SMS if an intrusion is detected in your home, so you can check your security camera immediately? The home gateway is a device that manages equipment across multiple technologies, even beyond the home environment. Providing you with a wealth of feature-rich benefits, such as the ability to turn on lights and check web cameras via your TV, a secure mobile phone or Internet browser.

The idea of having a smart home is exciting, but what does it mean? put simply it is about enhancing your everyday lifestyle. It doesn’t have to be hard, complicated, or even expensive; it’s just a matter of prioritising what’s important to you and knowing what you want most from your home.Clipsal’s “smart home” solutions give you several options when it comes to technology. Here we breakdown the different ways you can add a “smart” element to your home - first it pays to ask; “What do I want to achieve from my smart home?”

77



Benefits of a smart homeone of the challenges of installing a smart home system is balancing the complexity against the usability of the system. There are many added benefits that home networking and home control can bring to your new, or existing home.

79


aestheticsThis might seem like the most obvious answer, but one of the many reasons that people want a smart home, is because it adds the “wow factor”. Smart homes have a completely polished appearance because of the clever use of touch screens and remotes used to control blinds, lights, audio equipment, etc.

More often than not smart homes also offer the advantage of having cabling pre-wired into the wall cavity. Let’s face it, there’s nothing that can ruin the look of a home cinema more than that of messy cables running from behind the plasma screen and down the wall to the AV equipment.

ConvenienceSmart homes come with the ability to make life easier and more convenient. And in a world that is so demanding on our time, who wouldn’t love being able to control lighting, entertainment and temperature from their couch? What about automatic timers and sensors, so that as soon as you leave the room the lights switch off?

On the extreme end of the scale, home control is as simple as presetting scenes to suit your lifestyle. For example, if you love hosting dinner parties, why not configure a “dinner party” setting into your touchscreen, so that at the press of a button the lights dim, the music fades, the curtains close and the temperature is just right.

added securityHome control can also provide peace of mind. Whether you’re at work or away on holiday, the smart home will alert you to what’s going on with your home security. Your security system can also be built to provide an immense amount of help in an emergency. For example, not only would a resident be woken with notification of a fire alarm, the smart home would also unlock doors, dial the fire department and illuminate the path to safety.

Future-proofFuture-proofing adds value to your property - with rising energy costs, future-proofing your home for energy efficiency makes good financial sense. Ask yourself, “Wouldn’t it be nice to move into my new home and have perfect picture quality in every room from day one?” Or, let the kids have their own phone in each bedroom.

By having your digital cabling installed during the building process, it allows you to move in and start enjoying the full benefits of your TV, Internet and phone being completely accessible straight away. No mess, no fuss and no need to organise another contractor to come in later when you’re already settled. When installing your TV’s cabling take the initiative to include a high quality digital ready antenna. Not only can you enjoy perfect reception immediately, but you can also avoid the hassle of having to re-cable later on.


Home networkingStarServe® is the ultimate home networking technology. It unlocks your entertainment centre so you can distribute audiovisual to other rooms in the home. It also allows you to network your home so you can access telephone, Internet, security interface, and surveillance cameras from anywhere in the house. perfect for large or busy families, StarServe allows everyone to watch what they want, when they want, anywhere in the home.

no more messy cords or cablesWith StarServe your home is neat and tidy, as it is pre-wired during the building process so your TV, data and phone outlets are fitted straight into the wall – just like a power point. Incorporating a StarServe home networking into your building plans makes it possible to distribute audiovisual technology, while removing any unnecessary cables or cords.

Security and peace of mindIf you have a surveillance camera at your front door, you can watch it from any TV connected to the StarServe system.

For example, you may be upstairs and the doorbell rings, but it’s a bit late for visitors. Turn to the surveillance camera channel on your TV and see who it is without getting out of bed or up from the couch. Or use the TV outlet in the baby’s room to set up a camera. It makes a great monitor, so you can watch the baby from any room with a TV connected to StarServe.

Complete remote control You can remotely control from any other location in your home fitted with a Clipsal Remote Control Target. This target, combined with an emitter lead in your lounge room, can change the device you want to control.

Simply use all the functions of the remote control as if you were in the same room as the device you are controlling.

perfect reception in every roomWatch TV, videos, Pay TV or DVDs in any room of the home at the flick of a switch. And because it all runs

off the one network, it means that you only need one central DVD player. Better still the picture quality of your TV won’t diminish, no matter how many TVs you connect.

Multiple-user Internet accessEnjoy the flexibility to distribute broadband connections to

multiple rooms. StarServe can even network computers together for gaming and sharing printers or scanners. Fast, reliable and easy to manage, this flexible cabling system is like the data networks used in businesses.

Multiple telephone linesStarServe provides multiple phone lines, which is ideal for including a fax machine in the home office or to give the family some privacy by having a separate line in their bedroom.

Multi-room audio

41 32

Multi-room audio allows you to listen to your favorite music in any part of the home. Simply connect equipment such as an ipod or Mp3 player to the system and distribute the audio to the desired area of your home.

audio throughout the homeEach music location (music zone) can also have its own local source, such as a CD player, so everyone can listen to their favorite music in separate rooms without affecting the rest of the family.

For example, you can listen to music outdoors on the patio while you are having a barbeque and entertaining friends. And should the kids want to listen to their favorite music at the same time, they simply plug their iPod into the local connection in their room.

The simplicity of the system allows anyone to use it - from the novice to the most technically minded person.

an affordable audio solutionClipsal has a Multi-Room Audio solution to suit every budget, home and lifestyle. Starting with the affordable Clipsal Audio Solution, which gives you a multi-zone system with multi-source inputs and handy remote controls, through to a fully featured system incorporating C-Bus Multi-Room Audio with touch screen or DLT wall switch controls.

C-Bus® Multi-room audioIf you’re including C-Bus in your home, then the C-Bus Multi-Room Audio system is an absolute must. From a single zone on the back patio to a complete multi-room, multi-source system that's completely scaleable. This elegant solution provides total control of music from anywhere in the home and can be controlled by the same wall switches, touch screens or remotes that control your lights, security system, etc. The C-Bus system also allows you to change radio stations, skip CD tracks or change songs streamed from your computer meaning you don't have to get up and change rooms whenever you want to change music.

your home is about living, and with a Clipsal C-Bus Home Control system, it can be about living with ease - providing an enhanced lifestyle that is convenient, more secure and energy efficient.

Control at the touch of a buttonC-Bus is the brains behind a quality smart home. The level of convenience and control is hard to imagine until you have experienced the ultimate in home lifestyle benefits for yourself. Picture yourself pressing a “welcome home” button on a remote control as you pull into your driveway and having your pathway, front porch and hallway lights turn on, your air conditioner begins to warm or cool your living room and your favourite music starts playing throughout your home. Control your home theatre at the touch of a button, water your garden from the comfort of your lounge chair.

C-Bus enables users to set personalised scenes and modes, such as a “goodnight” button that turns everything off when you go to bed, and a “watch DVD” button that activates your home cinema and dims your lights when you watch a movie. Press a “goodbye” button upon leaving your home, and you can be rest assured that all power is “off” and your alarm is armed. With C-Bus, you can start small and add to the system as your lifestyle changes.

Home control that makes sense

With so many advanced features, the Clipsal C-Bus Home Control system allows people to take complete control of their lighting and electrical devices, and as a result, significantly reduce their energy consumption around the home. Individually programmed to suit your home, routine and lifestyle, the C-Bus Home Control system can be used to control vacancy by turning off or dimming lights in the home that are not required as well as being used to control the temperature so your home doesn’t get too hot or too cold.

C-Bus can be programmed to control curtains and blinds, opening and closing them when required to eliminate heat transfer and the need for extra lighting when natural light is sufficient. A master control setting can also be programmed so that at the push of a button, all lights and electrical devices can be switched off, eliminating the use of standby power.

add a touch of style to your homeThe range of switches that are able to be used within the C-Bus system is extensive. Go beyond a simple wall switch with the popular DLT wall switch, available in a number of colours and finishes, this intuitive switch can be digitally labelled for each button’s purpose, and can control all the electrical elements of an area from one central location.

Stylish, touch sensitive LCD screens are another option available, that replace the need to have multiple wall switches and add enviable style and functionality to any home. Touch screens can control your entire home’s lighting, home theatre, air conditioning, security, watering system and almost anything else you can imagine. It can also be personalised with your own photographs or graphics and perform a huge range of programmable functions, all with the touch of a finger.

The core of a Wiser homeWindows and blindsMotorised windows, blinds and curtain dressings are incredibly practical. Most importantly though,

they improve living environments by automatically adjusting according to the surroundings, so you will always be living with the perfect amount of ambient light, airflow, and temperature.

Media centreEliminate the need to store videos, music and digital photos onto hundreds of disks. Media centres are

a new addition to the home, whereby they provide a central location for the storage and playback of any type of digital information, ultimately supplying glitch-free media anywhere in the home through home networking.

air conditioningIntegrating air conditioning into a home control system using schedules and sensors will operate far

more efficiently, saving you money on power bills. Including automatic opening and closing of your windows and blinds, will further reduce your home's thermal transfer.

Lighting controlLighting control is a fundamental part of any home control system, providing user-friendly, convenient

benefits, such as a "welcome home" button that can be operated from your car, turning on garage, pathway and hallway lights. There are also many energy saving benefits to be gained from lighting control systems including utilising sensors and timers to turn off lights automatically, and dimmers to reduce the amount of power consumed.

Keyless entryIn a smart home, keyless entry takes on a whole new level of functionality with the ability to trigger

other events such as turning on the lights, music and air conditioning.

Multi-room audioA Multi-Room Audio system allows you to listen to music throughout your home, without the need for

big, bulky speakers and electronic components. It also gives you choice of either the same music or various sources in different rooms.

IrrigationAutomated irrigation reduces water wastage far beyond that of a standalone irrigation system.

Efficiencies can also be further maximised by considering daytime temperature, rainfall, wind speed, and ground moisture, all conveniently monitored and controlled by C-Bus.

Home theatreSimplify the operation of your home theatre or entertainment system and replace multiple remote

controls with a universal remote. Furthermore, integrated into a home control system a universal remote can also activate the room’s lighting and curtains.

Video intercomVideo intercoms are far more powerful when integrated into a smart home together with keyless

and automated entry systems. The intercom rings, your visitor appears on the TV, you give a verbal welcome via cordless phone and press the “open door” button on your remote, all without moving from the couch.

Home securityA security system integrated into a smart home provides far greater security benefits, including

turning on lights as a deterrent and alerting you via your email or SMS if there is an intrusion. You can even view cameras from your mobile phone. C-Bus Wiser Home Control can easily arm and disarm security, which can then also control devices such as your lighting, curtains and air conditioner.

At the residence there are 120 sets of electric blinds, 60 electronic windows and seven retractable roofs, which are easily controlled through the C-Bus home control system.

“The clients wanted to keep their control simple. Controlling the windows and blinds in groups, and being able to bring out the roofs with the touch of a button are automation options which save the client a lot of time and hassle.” The blinds and windows can also be controlled individually via C-Bus Wiser on the client’s computer or smart phone.

Retractable roofs attached to the home to provide shade in the courtyard area. The retractable roofs are controlled via the C-Bus control, which allows the client to easily manoeuvre them in accordance with the weather.

Simon Martin of Martin Building Design, says that lighting control also plays a role in highlighting architecturally significant areas of the home. At night, halogen spotlights bathe the limestone walls in a warming glow, on the deck, lights are positioned to shine up the limestone columns and within the swimming pool, LEDs are positioned to shine beams of light through the water.

“Lighting is something which has to be thought about during the design process,”

Simon said. “It needs to be catered for right from the start, rather than being an incidental occurrence at the end of the build process.”

Alongside the lighting requirements, the placement of A/V technology was planned for during the initial design stages. This is most evident in the courtyard area where a 65-inch plasma screen has been installed into a position where it can be retracted into the roof space when not in use. The C-Bus home control system was integrated into the home by a Clipsal Certified C-Bus Installer, Paul Langley from Sight and Sound Technologies. Paul says that the extensive automation in the home required two C-Bus networks.

“We like to work on a ‘one button lifestyle’ option for our clients,” Paul said. “This means that the client can come home, press a button on a key fob and open their garage door, turn on welcoming lights, open their blinds and turn on their gas fireplace.”

A second button has been programmed to turn everything off when the client leaves the house. Electric blinds are hidden above all the windows, and can be activated as a group via the C-Bus Saturn DLTs. Electronic windows installed in the home can also be operated as a group via the C-Bus system.

For outdoor entertaining, an Entertainment Scene has been programmed into the C-Bus DLT to turn on decking, wall and swimming pool lights to create a party atmosphere. Goodnight Scenes have been separately programmed into each of the C-Bus Saturn DLTs situated in the four bedrooms. This allows guests and the homeowners to turn off lights, televisions and close blinds in their sleeping area when it suits them. Motion sensors are installed in each of the walk in robes and special purpose lamp points have been installed alongside the beds to allow lamp light dimming through the C-Bus system.

The master bedroom is positioned on the second storey of the home, overlooking the beach frontage. A motion sensor is located on the threshold of this area, which turns on the lights to allow safe passage down the hall, through to the bedroom. The large walk in robe, located on the left hand side of the hallway, has a motion sensor, which detects when people are in the area and turns on the lights accordingly. The mirrors in the bathrooms, controlled through C-Bus logic, have demisters set in them to maintain a clear view.

The stairs, constructed of Spotted Gum Timber, have halogen lights recessed into their sides. This lighting has been programmed using the Clipsal Colour Touch Screen to turn on at a low level one hour before sunset and to turn off one hour after sunrise.

A Panic Mode Scene has been programmed into the C-Bus DLT. When this is activated, all the lights turn on and the external camera views are brought up onto the plasma screens throughout the house.

In areas where Saturn DLTs are not required, Clipsal Saturn Switches have been used. Clipsal Modena power points have also been used throughout the home.

A Clipsal C-Bus Colour Touch Screen is located in the garage where the integrator can store and access C-Bus Scenes. The A/V control boards are also located in this area. Sitting behind this case is a series of Clipsal Power Points, which have been programmed into the C-Bus system.

All lights in the house can be dimmed using the C-Bus DLT Switches, and memory dimmers have been installed so that when the lights are turned back on they come back at their last known level.

DSI Dimmable fluorescent lights have been installed in the dining area, and gas fireplaces, operated via the C-Bus system, are located in the lounge/dining area, the library and the master bedroom. The electronic windows run off four power supplies, and to save power, these power supplies are turned off when the client is not home.

“We have created a system where the client does not have to worry about checking the mundane things,” Paul said. “The automation here saves the clients a vast amount of time, because they do not have to go around the home opening and closing curtains and windows to prepare it for times when they going out, or when they have guests over. It also gives the clients peace of mind that when they leave their home it will be properly secured.”
