Why choose SmartWire for automation & lighting cable?

• Engineered for control reliability: 18 AWG 1 pair construction supports stable keypad power and control signaling in Lutron systems.
• Shielding options for your environment: Choose unshielded (UNS) when electromagnetic interference is minimal, or specify overall shielded (OAS) to help reduce noise in high-interference spaces.
• Consistent, efficient installation: SmartWire Glide Technology cable lubrication reduces pull friction by up to 70% for faster rough-in and fewer pull-related issues, at no additional cost.
• Color identification that supports field efficiency: Available conductor color codes in Black/Red and Violet/White simplify circuit identification and aid commissioning.
• Built for commercial demands: Durable low-voltage construction supports repeat pulls, secure terminations, and consistent performance across large facilities.
• Customization options: Standard and custom jacket and stripe color options are available to support company-wide identification standards—contact our team for details.

Where this lutron cable fits

• Lutron keypad home-run or daisy-chain segments in commercial spaces
• Low-voltage control wiring inside AV racks, conduits, and cable trays
• Mixed-use automation backbones where a dedicated control pair is required

Available options

• Shielding: OAS (overall aluminum shield) and UNS (unshielded)
• Conductor color codes: Black/Red and Violet/White

Available constructions

• 18 AWG 1 Pair Bare Copper Non-Plenum Low-Voltage: Unshielded control pair for Lutron keypad power and control in shorter runs or low-noise environments.
• 18 AWG 1 Pair Bare Copper Non-Plenum Low-Voltage: Shielded (OAS) control pair for noise-sensitive pathways or longer runs where added EMI protection is beneficial.

Solutions: Lighting Control Cable Lutron Non-Plenum

Lighting Control Cable — Lutron Non‑Plenum for Commercial and Industrial Projects

Windy City Wire supports professional integrators with low‑voltage pro av cable purpose‑built for commercial lighting control. This Lutron non‑plenum category focuses on keypad and control links for distributed lighting systems, helping contractors streamline installation, maintain signal integrity, and standardize infrastructure across multi‑site enterprises.

Designed as a combo cable for Lutron keypad applications, these constructions consolidate the conductors needed for typical low‑voltage station and control runs into a single pull. An 18 AWG, 1‑pair bare copper element provides dependable power and control capacity for many keypad and interface circuits in non‑plenum spaces. Where electromagnetic interference is a concern, shielded (OAS) options are available alongside unshielded (UNS) versions. Conductor color coding (Black/Red) and jacket color options (Black/Red or Violet/White) support fast identification in the field and reduce troubleshooting time.

Where this Lutron cable fits in AV and building systems

• Lutron keypads and wallstations: home‑run or networked station wiring for scene selection and area control
• Lighting control processors to local control devices: low‑voltage links between controllers and field interfaces
• Occupancy and daylight sensors: sensor power/control runs within open offices, classrooms, labs, and corridors
• Partition, relay, and contact‑closure interfaces: room combine/divide logic and general I/O control
• Shade and blind control interfaces: coordinated lighting and shading scenes tied to AV presets
• AV system integration: touchpanel, scheduler, and control processor triggers for lighting scenes in boardrooms, auditoriums, and training spaces

Industries and facility types

• Corporate and enterprise offices: conference rooms, huddle spaces, open plan, executive areas
• Higher education and K‑12: classrooms, lecture halls, labs, libraries, and student centers
• Healthcare: patient rooms, care stations, procedure areas, admin offices, and support spaces
• Hospitality and entertainment: ballrooms, meeting rooms, restaurants, casinos, theaters, and arenas
• Retail and mixed‑use: sales floors, fitting rooms, back‑of‑house, and display lighting control
• Industrial and logistics: manufacturing cells, warehouses, loading docks, and maintenance areas
• Transportation and public venues: terminals, stations, concourses, and public assembly spaces
• Data centers and technology campuses: white spaces, NOCs, labs, and support areas
• Houses of worship and civic buildings: sanctuaries, community rooms, council chambers

Why spec this automation & lighting cable for Lutron control

• Purpose‑built for keypad and control links: combo constructions reduce parallel pulls and speed rough‑in
• Consistent performance: 18 AWG, 1‑pair bare copper supports reliable low‑voltage power/control over typical commercial run lengths
• Shielded and unshielded options: select OAS for noise‑prone paths near VFDs, generators, and heavy electrical; use unshielded where EMI is minimal
• Field identification: Black/Red conductor colors and jacket color options (Black/Red or Violet/White) simplify circuit organization and service
• Non‑plenum rating for general areas: suitable for spaces not requiring plenum‑rated cable; confirm with local code and project specifications

How pro AV teams use Lutron control cabling

• Scene‑based AV integration: synchronize projector/screen presets with lighting scenes for presentations and video conferencing
• Sensor‑driven automation: occupancy and daylight inputs trigger lighting changes that coordinate with AV system states
• Room combine/divide: partition sensor and contact‑closure wiring enables dynamic control based on movable walls and scheduling
• Facility‑wide standardization: common pro av cable specifications simplify design submittals, procurement, and maintenance across campuses

Selection tips for specifiers and contractors

• Match environment to construction: use shielded versions near high‑voltage equipment or long parallel runs; choose unshielded in quieter pathways
• Confirm rating: non‑plenum is for general spaces; where air‑handling spaces are present, specify a plenum‑rated alternative
• Follow system topology: verify Lutron wiring rules for keypads, sensors, and interfaces (home‑run vs. daisy chain, maximum distances, terminations)
• Plan segregation: keep low‑voltage control wiring separated from power feeders and VFD conduits to minimize induced noise
• Document color usage: standardize how Black/Red and Violet/White jacket options map to subsystem types to streamline commissioning

Whether you are outfitting a single conference room or a multi‑building campus, standardizing on a Lutron‑compatible control cable helps ensure predictable installation, smooth commissioning, and reliable operation. Windy City Wire’s focus on commercial low‑voltage systems gives integrators a practical, durable lutron cable option that fits the workflows of modern AV, IT, and facilities teams.

If you are building a master specification for lighting control across projects, this pro av cable category offers the consistency and flexibility needed for long‑term support, from design through turnover and ongoing service.

Note: Always verify final cable selections against the project drawings, local codes, and Lutron system requirements for conductor type, topology, and distances.
