RE: New House Smart distribution box - Erazer - 03-19-2025

Ok. Thanks for yor replies.

Hello,

In regards if dimming I will be using KC868-D16+ LED driver But I would like to clarify the driver:
8. What kind of Kincony LED driver can I use for dimm 220v LED bulbs or incandescent ones?
9. What is the difference between "12V/24V 100W LED Dimmable Driver For KC868-D16" and "0 -10v Dimmable LED Drivers" when connecting it to KC868-D16+ ?
10. (different topic) What type of cables should I prepare my house for different types of esp32 sensors ? (door, presence, humidity temperature etc) Will CAT6a cable be ok?
11. What type of cables should I prepare my house for the wall light switches? Would CAT6a cable be ok or should I use YSLY 7x0.75mm for control and use NYY-J 5x1.5mm for the load only?

Thanks,
Erazer

Hello,

I have already ordered KC868-A16v3 + KC868-E16v2. I was wondering if KC868-E16v2 manual buttons still work if the system is broken (like it is the case for F16 manual switch relays) ?

Thanks for replying on the above posts,

8. What kind of Kincony LED driver can I use for dimm 220v LED bulbs or incandescent ones?

the SSR: https://shop.kincony.com/products/analog-solid-state-relay-regulator
but we suggest use by DC LED strip, DC is stable than AC. here is DC driver:https://shop.kincony.com/products/0-10v-dimmable-led-drivers

9. What is the difference between "12V/24V 100W LED Dimmable Driver For KC868-D16" and "0 -10v Dimmable LED Drivers" when connecting it to KC868-D16+ ?

some LED strip use by 12V DC, some use by 24V DC. if your LED strip is long, use by long cable , 24V version is better.

10. (different topic) What type of cables should I prepare my house for different types of esp32 sensors ? (door, presence, humidity temperature etc) Will CAT6a cable be ok?

any cable can use, CAT5 is enough. our controller digital input ports circuit design use for long distance. CAT5 use by 300 meter no problem.

11. What type of cables should I prepare my house for the wall light switches? Would CAT6a cable be ok or should I use YSLY 7x0.75mm for control and use NYY-J 5x1.5mm for the load only?

Yes, it's same.

Hello,

I have already purchased KC868-A16v3 + KC868-E16v2 but I Would like to know if I can use regular touch switches on the digital inputs of the KC868-A16v3?
All I can find is that all the touch wall switches specifies 110-220v on the input. Only Livolo has the version with dry input of 12-24 v. Will it work on with 12 v required by the KC868-A16v3. The touch switch I am planning to use is Sonoff Ultimate.

Thanks in advance,
Erazer

KC868-A16v3 can use by any dry contact signal switch panel.
