I'm searching for a simple circuit of automatic lighting that includes triac. Can anyone show me the circuit?

Unless the lighting includes a dimming feature, the relay should provide adequate control for on/off. Triacs don't work with DC, either for control or for on/off operation.

We need more information about the circuit you have in mind.

When the weather is dark, the triac causes to turn on the light. What should I do to use triac instead of relay and there is a battery(6v) to provide current of the light(220v). Also, turn off it when the weather is light.

Alberto,
Thanks for your suggestion, but you're missing the point. My aim is to learn how to design a simple circuit.

Hello,

Depends where you live.
Here in Holland (and most countries in europe) it is 230 Volts.
In the USA it is 120 Volts.

Greetings,
Bertus
