Color-tunable RGBW lighting in a luxury master bath integrated with the home control system by Lit Group.
Lit Group / Partner Systems · iv. Low Voltage / Controls

Specialty LED systems for low-voltage and controls teams.

Lit Group handles the architectural LED side of the controls conversation. We coordinate drivers, dimming protocol, channel counts, zone breaks, service access, and fixture behavior for custom LED assemblies in Los Angeles homes.

The controls contractor keeps the control system. Lit Group owns the specialty LED hardware, assemblies, and field documentation so commissioning is based on known equipment instead of guesswork.

i. SpecialtyWhat we solve

Custom LED assemblies need clean control information.

Backlit stone panels, long linear channels, toe kicks, stair runs, and custom LED assemblies do not behave like standard recessed lighting loads. Driver selection, dimming protocol, voltage drop, channel count, and zone mapping all affect how the final scene performs.

Lit Group documents that side of the scope for the integrator. We coordinate the LED package, confirm driver access, and support tuning so the control system can do its job cleanly.

ii. PartnerWhere we fit

The LED side, documented for the control room.

We work with Lutron, Crestron, Control4, Savant, and other residential control environments. The goal is not to replace the integrator. The goal is to make the LED hardware predictable before programming and commissioning.

Punch ListWhat we handle
  1. 01Driver brand, channel count, and dim protocol (0-10V, ELV, DALI, phase) matched to the controls platform.
  2. 02Channel routing and circuit breakdown aligned with the architect’s zone diagram and the controls programming.
  3. 03Drive-current trim, dim-to-warm behavior, and low-end clip tuned for the load.
  4. 04Driver locations, J-box placement, and access panels coordinated against finish geometry.
  5. 05Low-voltage runs, conduit fills, and shielding walked with the LV crew before drywall.
  6. 06Documentation handed to the integrator at rough-in — fixture schedule, driver list, zone map.
  7. 07On-site commissioning support during system tuning and scene programming.
iii. SendWhat we review

What to send for early alignment.

If we’re aligned before drivers are spec’d, the commissioning pass holds the first time. A first review usually only needs a partial scope and a quick conversation about the controls strategy.

  • Control platform and version — Lutron, Crestron, Control4, Savant, or other.
  • Dim protocol target — 0-10V, ELV, DALI, phase — per circuit if known.
  • Architect’s zone map and scene intent if available.
  • Architectural drawings showing specialty LED locations — coves, stairs, backlit stone, custom assemblies.
  • Existing fixture schedule and any pre-selected drivers.
  • Project schedule with rough-in and commissioning dates.

v. FAQCommon questions

Low voltage + controls FAQ.

Does Lit Group install the control system?
No. The control system stays with the integrator. Lit Group owns the specialty LED scope and coordinates the LED side — drivers, dim protocol, zone breaks, access, and field documentation — so the integrator inherits a clean platform to program against.
Which control platforms do you coordinate with?
We coordinate with the major luxury residential platforms, including Lutron, Crestron, Control4, and Savant, alongside whichever dim protocol the integrator is running — 0-10V, ELV, DALI, or phase. We’re not certified by any one platform. We’re the LED side of the integration.
What does Lit Group hand the integrator at rough-in?
Fixture schedule, driver list, channel count and dim protocol per circuit, zone map, and driver locations. The integrator can program against documented hardware instead of guessing at load type or curve behavior.
Why does this need to be coordinated before drywall?
Driver location, J-box placement, low-voltage runs, and access panels all become hard to change once the wall is closed. Pre-rough coordination is the difference between a clean commissioning pass and a re-pull on the back end.
Can you support commissioning?
Yes. We support on-site commissioning during system tuning and scene programming — trim, dim curve behavior, low-end clip, and final visual handoff with the architect or designer.
