Products on bus wiring

Are you building a new house or extensively renovating your current home, and replacing the electrical wiring? Then let Niko Home Control install bus wiring. Bus wiring is not just simple wiring but also facilitates complete home automation, with endless possibilities and the flexibility to expand the system, if your family circumstances change for example.

During the electrical works, your installer can ensure you have all the wiring you need to live in a smart, comfortable and safe house and also save energy. With intuitive displays, such as mood controls and the eco-display, you can adapt your electrical installation to your precise requirements. And if you wish to change or expand your controls at a later date, the system flexibility means it's not a problem.

Bus wiring uses cables that carry electricity but also electronic signals. They enable all of the elements of your electrical installation to communicate with one another and make your installation smart. For example, you could use 1 switch in your living room to control the lights in your bedrooms too. The same switch could also be reprogrammed at a later date to turn on the lights in the garden as well.
