Line 38:
The power control in a C-Bus system lies in a “Dimmer” or “Relay” which is installed in the DB and replaces the traditional switch used in conventional wiring. This Dimmer (or Relay) has a 120/230 V Line interconnection directly to the ceiling light and a neutral connection back from the ceiling light to the Dimmer. The Dimmer will control the light directly and will receive its commands from another device on the C-Bus network (for example, a wall-mounted light switch/keypad). This wall-mounted light switch would not be connected to any load whatsoever; it would be directly connected with the Dimmer with a control/signaling cable. The Dimmers normally come as 4-, 8- or 12-channel DIN-rail mounted devices.

As of 9 December 2008, Clipsal opened its C-Bus protocols to anyone who wants to interact with it programmatically.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://training.clipsal.com/downloads/OpenCBus/OpenCBusProtocolDownloads.html |title=Open C-Bus Serial Protocol Documents |access-date=2011-02-27 |archive-date=2018-02-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180221063055/http://training.clipsal.com/downloads/OpenCBus/OpenCBusProtocolDownloads.html |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cbus-enabled.com/ |title=Home |website=cbus-enabled.com}}</ref>
