Why it Matters

Set-and-forget outdoor lighting
The built-in light sensor triggers the load at dusk, and the adjustable 2-to-12-hour timer switches it off later in the night. That means security and amenity lighting runs automatically without manual switching or a separate timer.

Simple 2-wire retrofit
The 2-wire design wires in series with the load, so it can replace a manual switch without pulling a neutral. This makes it a practical choice for upgrading existing outdoor lighting points across Australian homes and sites.

Built for the weather
The IP66 grey enclosure resists dust and water for exposed outdoor mounting. It handles resistive and fluorescent loads up to 10AX.

Does the Clipsal 56SSR/2-GY need a neutral wire?
No. It uses a 2-wire design that connects in series with the load, so no neutral connection is required.

How does the sunset switch decide when to turn on?
An ambient light sensor adjustable between 20 and 500 lux triggers the load at dusk; an adjustable timer of 2 to 12 hours then switches it off.

Is the 56SSR/2-GY suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. It carries an IP66 rating for dust and water protection, making it suitable for weather-exposed outdoor lighting control.
