PIR Motion Sensor Based LED Light Control | ICStation | Wiring Diagram

Today, I want to show the PIR motion sensor installation and review. The sensor is commonly installed at the entrance, bathroom, and closet areas. Thank ICStation for sponsoring the motion sensor.  


Step 1: Installation

  1. List components to install the IR motion sensor are an IR motion sensor, LED lamp, 1.5 mm² wire, and extension plug.

  2. This picture shows a wiring diagram of an IR motion sensor.
  3. Connect the black wire of the motion sensor to the LED lamp live wire (brown/red).

  4. Connect the red wire of the motion sensor to the live wire (brown/red) of the extension plug.

  5. Connect the neutral wire (blue/black) of the LED lamp to the neutral wire of the extension plug (blue/black).

    Connection at motion sensor.

    Connection at extension plug.

Step 2: Testing

  1. This picture shows the parameters of this motion sensor. Maximum height detects 3M, sensing angle 45°, sensing distance 3M to 6M.


  2. Turn the switch ON, and make some movement within the sensor range. After testing, I found this motion sensor not working in daylight or bright place. The LED lamp will not turn ON.

    Bright place or daylight.

  3. The first time the motion sensor detects the nighttime, the LED lamp will turn ON for a minute. If the person/object stands still, the LED lamp will turn OFF. 

    Darkplace or nighttime.

    After a few seconds, the LED lamp will turn ON.

  4. This sensor is most commonly installed at the entrance, bathroom, and closet areas.
