The sensors the GModG
needs for lighting.

§ 56 (6) GModG calls for lighting control with zones and occupancy detection. Which sensor delivers that for you depends mainly on the mounting height.

For GModG lighting you need sensors that detect whether an area is in use and that can be grouped into zones. Simple motion detectors usually just switch on and off and supply no data. Networked presence and daylight sensors dim, form groups and report their data to the monitoring system.

Which sensor for which area?

Hall, luminaire without AUX6 to 15 mEFS104 with its own power supply
Outdoors and damp rooms6 to 12 mEFS106W with IP66

Is a simple presence detector enough?

A simpler solution may meet the legal requirement. But you give up savings and data: without networking there are no groups and no proof of consumption, and every change means a ladder and a technician on site. The comparison cheap motion sensors vs networked lighting control shows the difference. How the technologies work is explained in PIR, ultrasonic, microwave and dual-tech.

As of November 2026. General information, not legal advice. The wording of the law is what counts.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about sensors

Does it have to be a presence detector?

§ 56 (6) GModG doesn't name a device type. The lighting control should have occupancy detection. "Should" means this is the rule, and you must be able to justify any deviation. Presence and high-bay sensors are the usual way to do it.

Do all your sensors cover monitoring?

Yes. We carry out every project with the AU-Manager, so all sensors provide occupancy detection, zoning and monitoring.

Which sensor suits high ceilings?

From about 6 m, high-bay sensors are the right choice: EFS106 up to 12 m, EFS104 up to 15 m. Planning advice is in the guide High-bay sensors for warehouses.

What if my driver has no 12 V output?

In halls from 6 m we use the EFS104 with its own power supply. In offices and corridors we check the luminaire, and replacing the driver is often the cheapest solution. See 12 V AUX output on the LED driver.
