Abstract

The time synchronization arrangement comprises a clock, by which it synchronizes at least two installation devices or electronic building installation or office arrangements, time-wise through synchronization signals adjusted individually to the device or arrangements. The time synchronization arrangement is configured for the output of the adjusted synchronization signals for the installation devices or electronic building installation or office arrangements through corresponding parameters. The arrangement comprises preferably a programmable micro-chip, is integrated in a casing, and is adjusted to the correct time by an external signal, preferably a radio signal.
