Technical Field [0001] The invention relates to a kit for a domestic electrical installation comprising a wired part and a wireless part able to communicate with each other. The invention also relates to a method of producing an electrical installation using such a kit.

[0003] A traditional domestic electrical installation wired that it is compatible with home automation standards such as the KNX® standard or not, is not flexible enough to offer such modularity and follow the rapid evolution of the IoT.

Some industrial operators have made the choice of completely wireless facilities for communications between control units (switches, push buttons, ...) and controlled objects (lamps, detectors, ...) thus providing a great flexibility in their installation. Nevertheless, wireless technologies pose certain problems, particularly with regard to the power supply of the control units, which requires regular maintenance. This problem is, in part, regulated by switches combining a power supply and a wireless connection such as that described in the patent application CA2924498 or in the patent application US2016 / 0181036. Nevertheless, this type of installation does not offer the desired modularity because if it allows to control wireless objects, its installation requires a power supply and the presence of electric cables.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PARTICULAR EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION [0021] FIG. 1 shows an example of a kit for electrical installation, 1, according to the invention. In this example, the kit is not assembled and may include: • a control-command module, 2, including a radio frequency (RF) gateway, 2r; A wired electrical installation, 3, comprising a plurality of wired control units, 3c, and a plurality of controlled wired electrical objects, 30; An RF electrical system, 4, comprising at least one RF control unit, 4c, and / or at least one controlled RF electric object, 4o; Optionally, a plurality of electrical cables objects, 5o, dimensioned to supply electrical power to the controlled wired electrical objects, and optionally, the at least one RF controlled electric object; Optionally, a plurality of control electric cables, 5c, sized to supply electricity to a plurality of wired control units, and optionally the at least one RF control unit.

The controlled wired and / or RF wired electrical objects are, furthermore, configured to be controlled by the wired and / or RF control units via the control module.

The kit of the invention allows for an electrical installation comprising a traditional wired part and a wireless part (RF) which offers greater modularity. The control-command module makes it possible to interface the two parts and to interconnect them, which allows the RF part to communicate with the wired part and vice versa. The main object of the invention is to provide a home electrical installation easy to install, scalable and scalable. The kit according to the invention makes it possible to achieve these three objectives. Indeed, the interconnection of the wired part and the RF part allows, for example, to install control units in places where the installation of an electric cable would be difficult. The modularity and scalability of the electrical installation using a kit according to the invention is related to the ability to add, remove or replace controlled RF objects and / or RF control units to an existing domestic electrical installation. This allows, for example, to overcome a lack of switch, or to adapt the installation to technological developments.

Such a kit also allows to combine the advantages of wired and wireless installations while mitigating their respective defects. A wired installation has the advantages of emitting little electromagnetic field, offering the possibility of testing the installation as it is laid, allowing the use of control units from many manufacturers and having a lower cost. By cons, the installation of a wired electrical installation requires more work and a preliminary study. Its modularity and scalability is also very limited. A wireless electrical installation offers rapid installation, remote control capabilities and high modularity. On the other hand, it is more difficult to test the installation during installation. Since the installation uses RF emissions, the choice of control units is narrower and the parameterization of these units requires more technical skill.

Preferably, the kit according to the invention is in the form of a box comprising the control-command module, 2, the plurality of wired control units, 3c, and the plurality of wired electrical objects. controlled, 3o, the at least one RF control unit, 4c, and / or at least one RF controlled electric object, 4o.

Optionally, the box also comprises a plurality of electrical cables objects, 5o, and a plurality of electric control cables, 5c. Preferably, the control-command module, 2, the plurality of wired control units, 3c, and the at least one RF control unit, are preconfigured and the box also comprises a connection plane in the form of an instruction manual or explanatory sheets. This box allows a non-technical person to carry out his own electrical installation.

The control-command module 2 is preferably a modular device for DIN-EN 60715 TH35 rail mounting comprising control inputs for at least one of the following elements: push buttons, door / window contacts, movement, intrusion, fire. The control and command module comprises an RF antenna and is preferably configured to receive and transmit wired and / or RF messages. The control and command module is configured to be connected to a domestic electrical distribution network, for example a 220 V-240 V 50 Hz AC single-phase or three-phase AC power network. Preferably, the control-command module comprises a transformer capable of supplying an output voltage of 8 V, 12 V, 24 V or 230 V AC 50 Hz or direct current.

The control-command module may also include remote switches and / or switching relays, universal dimmers, timed relays, relays with clock and / or twilight function, flap control relay, VMC management relay ( controlled mechanical ventilation), heating management relay, multi-zone heating management relay.

The ordered wired electrical objects 3o and / or the controlled RF electric objects 4o can be switched on or off by a command (or a control message) and are, for example: • a lamp; • a detector: fire, presence, movement, intrusion, carbon dioxide, humidity, brightness; • an outlet ; • an electric motor, • a fan speed controller, • an actuator.

Wired electrical objects controlled 3o and / or RF controlled electrical objects 4o can be powered by a voltage of 8 V, 12 V, 24 V or 230 V AC 50 Hz or direct current. They are preferably supplied with 230 V AC 50 Hz.

The controls applicable to a detector may also include the adjustment of the sensitivity level, the moment and or the duration of operation. Controls applicable to an electric motor may also include adjustment of engine speed, torque, or stroke. The commands applicable to an actuator can be very varied, for example a dimmer, a timer, a logic sequence (total extinction of the lights with interlocking of the external lighting if the brightness is too low), or a time sequence.

The wired control units 3c and / or RF 4c can send simple control messages such as "turn on / off (off)" or more complex. These wired and / or RF control units are, for example: a simple switch (see FIG. 3), 7a, double, 7b, quad, 7c, multiple; • a push button (see Figure 3) simple, 8a, double, 8b, quadruple, 8c, multiple; • a simple on / off or multifunction remote control; • a contactor; • a detector: brightness, presence, movement, intrusion, carbon dioxide, humidity; • a clock ; • an electronic device; • a dimmer; • a thermostat.

The wired control units 3c and / or RF 4c can be powered by a voltage of 8 V, 12 V, 24 V or 230 V AC 50 Hz or direct current. Preferably, they are supplied with 12 V DC current.

Many examples of control messages can be cited. A switch can control the power of a lamp or electrical appliance. A remote control can control an electric shutter motor to raise or lower the shutter. It can also control the power supply of an electrical appliance or send it instructions. For example, a VMC (mechanical controlled ventilation) and / or heating can be controlled by a remote control that can send commands on the fan speed and the desired temperature. A detector or a clock can control the triggering of an alarm, the closing / opening of shutter, the power supply of an electric device. In another example, a twilight clock can simulate a presence in a home by lighting lights. This twilight clock can also block lighting commands if the brightness level is sufficient or, on the contrary, trigger lighting automatically. Controlled mechanical ventilation can be controlled according to temperature or humidity. It is possible to boost this speed temporarily. Multizone heating management can be achieved for energy saving.

The electrical cables objects, 5o, are sized to power the wired controlled electric objects 3o and / or RF controlled 4o. The electric cables objects comprise wires whose cross section is 0.5 mm 2; 1.5 mm 2, 2.5 mm 2, 4 mm 2 or more. Preferably, the electrical cables dimensioned to supply wired and / or RF controlled electrical objects are 1.5 mm2 or 2.5 mm2 section cables.

The electric control cables, 5c, are sized to power the wired control units 3c and / or RF 4c. The electric control cables include wires whose section is 0.5 mm2; 1.5 mm 2, 2.5 mm 2, 4 mm 2 or more. Preferably, the control electric cables dimensioned to supply the wired and / or RF control units are 10-wire SW cables with a cross section of 0.5 mm 2.

Figure 2 shows an example of an electrical installation that can be obtained by assembling a kit, 1, according to the invention. In this figure, the dashed lines indicate the link between the wired and / or RF control units and the ordered wired and / or RF wired electrical objects that said wired and / or RF control units direct. The controlled RF electric objects 4o, the RF control units 4c and the control and command module 2 communicate via a local RF network, 6.

For example, an electric wired obj and wired can be controlled by a plurality of wired control units 3c and by an RF control unit 4c. In this example, the RF control unit sends a control message through the local RF network to the control module 2 which transmits this control message to the wired electric object controlled via the electrical cables objects 5o. The control module can also send a status message to the wired control units. This operation can be bidirectional, ie if the wired electric object controlled is controlled by a wired control unit, the control module can also send a status message to the control unit. RF. This status message can be translated, for example, by turning on or off an LED on the wired and / or RF control unit.

In another example, a controlled RF electric object 4o can be controlled by a wired control unit 3c. The control messages are then sent to the control module 2 which transmits them to the RF controlled electric object via the local RF network.

In a third example, a controlled RF electric object can be controlled by an RF control unit 4c, said RF control unit being powered by a control electric cable 5c. In this case, the control messages are sent either simultaneously from the RF control unit to the controlled RF electric object and to the control module or only to the control module which retransmits them. The purpose of transmitting a message to the control module can be to store the state of the object for a monitoring of the current consumption for example.

Finally, in a fourth example, it is the RF controlled electric object that can be powered by an object electric cable, 5o, and controlled by an RF control unit. As in the previous example, control messages are sent either simultaneously from the RF control unit to the controlled RF electric object and to the control module or only to the control module which retransmits them. The electric cable leading the power supply of a controlled RF electric object may or may not be connected to the control module. It may, in some cases (not shown), be connected to an external power source. Other examples may be considered.

The control module 2 is configured to: receive and transmit wired and RF messages from and to at least one RF control unit 4c and / or a controlled RF electric object 4o and / or a wired control unit 3c and / or a wired electric object controlled 3o, the RF messages being exchanged via the local RF network 6.

These messages may be control messages, control or status.

A control message is, for example, a message comprising an instruction for powering or cutting the power supply of at least one wired electrical object ordered 3o and / or RF controlled 4o. Such a message is sent from a wired control unit 3c or RF to the control-command module 2 which transmits the command to the wired and / or controlled wired electric object. A control message may also include instructions for changing: the speed of a ventilation, the temperature, the torque of an engine, the speed of an engine, the position of an electrical appliance. Other commands can be considered For example, the state of intensity of a lighting (10% for a nursery night light), or logical functions: when a person leaves his home, the outside lights come on, the ventilation speed decreases, the required temperature decreases, the window / door switches engage. It is also possible to manage a lighting or an electrical device (to program its automatic extinction in case of forgetfulness) with a timed relay that can be coupled to a power relay. We can also manage the extinction by zone or overall of a dwelling.

A control message is, for example, a message comprising a request to know the state of a wired electrical object ordered 3o and / or RF controlled 3c and / or the state of a wired control unit 3c and / or RF 4c. This request can be sent by the control-command module, by a wired and / or RF control unit or, optionally, by a commanded and / or RF controlled wired electric object. A control message may also be sent by a wired electric object and / or controlled RF and include information such as: temperature, brightness, power consumption, humidity, carbon dioxide level, atmospheric pressure.

A status message is a message comprising an indication of the state of a wired electrical object controlled 3o and / or RF controlled 4o as: open / partially open / closed state, on / off state ( FIO). Such a message may be sent by the control-command module, by a wired control unit 3c and / or RF 4c. The purpose of these messages is to change the state of a wired and / or RF control unit. For example, in the case of a lamp controlled by two control units, one wired and the other RF, the RF control unit may send a control message to turn on the lamp. This control message is sent to the control module via the RF local network and then transmitted to the lamp. Simultaneously with this transmission, a status message is sent to the wired control unit to inform it that the state of the lamp is "on". This message can be used, for example, to light an LED on the wired control unit.

A status message or, preferably, control can be sent by the control module with a GSM module and / or Wi-Fi, to an external device such as a mobile phone or a mobile phone. computer.

Preferably, a wired control unit 3c and / or RF 4c comprises a display means. As shown in Figure 3, this display means may be a screen, 9a, or one or more LEDs, 9b. These display means make it possible to inform a user of the content of the messages received. For example, a display means comprising a plurality of LEDs may indicate a level (eg carbon dioxide, humidity) as a function of the number of LEDs illuminated. A screen may contain more complete information. For example, a temperature, an operating speed, an operating state, etc.

Preferably, the local RF network 6 is a local area network operating for example in the ISM frequency band (industrial, scientific and medical) at 868 MHz. The RF messages are preferably exchanged in this frequency band. Preferably, the RF network complies with ISO / IEC 14543-3-10. This radio standard concerns self-powered radio technologies and lays the foundation for interoperable wireless technology, open and comparable to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi standards. Preferably, the RF network uses the EnOcean® protocol. Alternatively, the protocol can be a KNX® protocol, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or any wireless local area network (WLAN).

Preferably, the controlled RF electric objects 4o, the RF control units 4c and the control-command module 2 are configured to be compatible with the EnOcean® protocols. Preferably, the wired controlled electrical objects 3o and the wired control units 3c are configured to be compatible with the EnOcean® protocols.

Preferably, the controlled RF electric objects 4o comprise self-powered controlled RF electric objects and the RF control units 4c comprise self-powered RF control units. For example, a switch can be auto-powered via piezoelectric crystals which, when compressed by mechanical pressure applied by a user, generate enough electrical power to send a message to the control module. In another example, a controlled RF electric object and / or an RF control unit may comprise a photovoltaic cell that generates the electricity necessary for the operation of the controlled RF electric object and / or the RF control unit.

Figure 4 shows an example of a control module, 2, further comprising a GSM module and / or Wi-Fi, 2g, and an optional link to a home automation controller, 2d, configured to serve gateway between a home automation protocol, preferably KNX®, and the control-command module.

The KNX® home automation protocol is an automation protocol for distributed logic building in which each controller is independent of others and does not operate in master / slave mode. Other protocols can be used, for example: Zwave, XI0, Chacon.

The GSM module and / or Wi-Fi of the control module is configured to send and receive messages to external devices, 11, via a cellular network and / or internet, 10. Figure 5 illustrates the case a GSM module that sends or receives a message, for example a push mail, via the cellular network to a mobile phone. The term "mobile phone" to be understood as a device that can communicate via the cellular network, i.e., mobile phone, smartphone, tablet, phablette. Via his mobile phone, a user can also send an order to a controlled wired electric object, 3o, and / or RF controlled, 4o.

Sent messages can also be emails, notifications, short messages sent via the cellular network or via internet and internet to external devices. In the case where the internet is used and the message is sent via the internet, the external device may be a smartphone, a tablet, a phablette, a computer.

These messages may include information on the state of controlled wired electrical objects 3o and / or RF controlled 4o and / or the state of wired control units 3c and / or RF 4c. The messages can also contain global information on, for example, the power consumption, the number of open windows, the number of light spots on, the temperature. These messages can also be alert messages indicating, for example, that a building intrusion has occurred, an alarm has occurred, a fire has been detected. The examples lists above are not exhaustive and it is obvious to those skilled in the art that other examples of messages are possible.

This plane can also define the position of certain RF control units 4c and of certain controlled RF electrical objects 4o for which it is, for example, it is not possible to bring a power supply by cables or else, for which a power supply by cables is necessary. This connection plan can be in the form of a manual or explanatory sheets describing, step by step, the implementation of the kit assembly. The manual or the explanatory sheets allow a non-technical user to easily install his electrical installation by assembling the kit according to the invention.

A third step consists in the pre-configuration of the control-command module and wired control units and possible RF control units taken up on the connection plane. This pre-configuration is usually done by a technician and allows a non-technical user to perform the installation itself without resorting to specific knowledge.
