C-Bus

Australia's most trusted lighting platform.

Thirty years of reliability. Still the right answer for many projects.

Clipsal C-Bus has been the lighting control standard in Australian residential and commercial buildings for over thirty years. Robust, reliable, and deeply understood by electricians across the country.

When a project requires proven technology with a local support network national supplier, available parts, electricians trained on it C-Bus delivers. The failure modes are known. The solutions are documented. The parts are in stock.

We install and program C-Bus across Melbourne from residential renovations adding scene control, to commercial fitouts requiring full DALI dimming integration.

Architectural Melbourne home with C-Bus controlled lighting scenes

DIN rail modules. Scene control. Scheduling.

5500 series the standard

The C-Bus 5500 series DIN rail modules are the backbone of every installation. Lighting outputs, input units, logic controllers all mounted in a switchboard and connected via the C-Bus two-wire protocol. Scenes recalled from a keypad. Schedules triggered by time of day. Automations triggered by occupancy. It is not complicated. It works.

The interface your client actually uses.

Saturn Zen keypads and DALI

Saturn Zen and eDLT keypads give users a physical, wall-mounted interface that does not require a phone. Press a button. Scene changes. Press another. Lights dim to 10%. DALI integration extends C-Bus control to every low-voltage driver in the building colour temperature, dimming level, individual zone control from a single keypad.

Why Elec Reid
for C-Bus

We have programmed C-Bus systems across Melbourne for years.

From single-room scene control to whole-of-home multi-zone DALI systems. We understand the platform's capabilities and its limits.

We integrate C-Bus with modern platforms.

C-Bus does not have to stand alone. We integrate it with Apple Home, Home Assistant, and third-party platforms via Wiser for KNX bridges and IP gateways.

Local parts. Local support.

Clipsal is available from electrical wholesalers across Melbourne. If a module fails in five years, the replacement is available next day. That matters.
