220V Photocell Switch 10A – Auto Street Light Controller 3000W
220V–240V Photocell Switch – Smart Automatic Light Controller for Street Lamps
Take the guesswork out of outdoor lighting with this intelligent Photocell Switch. Designed for street lamps, garden lights, and commercial outdoor fixtures, this automatic photo detector switch senses ambient light levels and activates your lighting at dusk — then switches it off at dawn — with zero manual effort. Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- Automatic Light Activation: Triggers lighting when ambient light drops to 10–35 LUX, ensuring your space stays illuminated exactly when needed.
- Wide Voltage Compatibility: Operates on 220V–240V AC (rated 110–240V), making it suitable for a broad range of residential and commercial lighting setups.
- High Load Capacity: Rated at 10A / 3000W, this switch handles powerful street lamps and large outdoor fixtures with ease.
- All-Weather Reliability: Functions in temperatures from -20°C to +40°C and withstands humidity up to 93% RH — built tough for outdoor environments.
- Surface Mount Installation: Simple surface-mounted setup with a 41.5mm hole spacing for a secure, stable fit.
- Energy-Saving Design: Eliminates unnecessary daytime electricity use by automatically cutting power when natural light is sufficient.
- Durable Plastic Housing: Lightweight yet robust plastic construction resists the elements and provides long service life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What voltage does this photocell switch support?
A: This photocell switch is rated for 220V–240V AC operation (with a broader rated range of 110–240V), making it compatible with standard European and international mains voltages. Always verify your local supply voltage before installation.
Q: At what light level does the photocell switch activate?
A: The built-in photo detector is calibrated to automatically activate connected lighting when ambient illumination drops to between 10 and 35 LUX — typically at dusk — and switches the light off when daylight returns above that threshold.
Q: Can this switch be used outdoors?
A: Yes. The photocell switch is designed for outdoor use, functioning reliably across temperatures from -20°C to +40°C and in humidity levels up to 93% RH, making it suitable for street lamps, garden lighting, and commercial outdoor installations.
Q: How is the photocell switch installed?
A: The switch uses a surface-mounted installation method with a 41.5mm hole spacing. It is important to follow local electrical codes and, where required, have installation carried out by a qualified electrician, especially given the high-voltage rating.
