Claim 0:
1. A UVC germicidal illumination device, comprising:
a power source configured to supply input power to said UVC germicidal illumination device;
at least one UVC light source configured to generate ultraviolet light;
a first at least one power supply unit configured to provide output power to at least one UVC light source;
a relay comprising a first pin in communication with an input connection of said power source, a second pin in communication with another input connection of said power source, a third pin in communication with an input of said first at least one power supply unit, and fourth pin in communication directly with an output of at least one sensor;
the at least one sensor configured to generate a sensor output signal responsive to a detection of a person or object by the at least one sensor;
wherein said relay is configured to (i) receive, at the fourth pin, the sensor output signal from the at least one sensor and (ii) disconnect the power source from the first at least one power supply unit in response to the received sensor output signal; and
wherein said relay is further configured to re-connect the power source to said first at least one power supply unit when said sensor output signal is no longer being received by the relay.
