Many friends are engaged in outdoor construction of LED line lights and wonder how to connect the power after the LED tube is electrified. Next AODE Lighting will reveal to you the wiring methods for both ends of the LED line lights.
1. Side Wiring Method for Connecting Both Ends of LED Line Lights:
Choose one side from the aluminum edges at both ends of the line light and punch a hole about the size of the wire diameter. The waterproof joint connects to the circuit board from this hole and exits from the aluminum side. The advantage of this installation is seamless connectivity, no dark areas in lighting efficiency, and it's very convenient to install. However, this installation method does not easily hide the power and signal wires, leaving the wires exposed. At a closer look, the wires can be seen on smaller buildings, which may not look as nice for the entire building.
2. Plug and Socket Connection Method for Both Ends of the LED Line Light:
The plug and socket involve creating a socket hole in the middle of the connector plate at both ends of the LED line light. This plug is different from the outdoor waterproof LED string lights with hidden bottom wires and side sockets. During the docking installation process, there will be a gap of about 1 centimeter between the lights. In the actual application of lighting projects, a 1cm gap will not significantly affect the overall lighting efficiency because the light beam is scattered and can fill in the dim areas on its own. Plug and socket connections cannot be seamlessly connected, and their aesthetic is slightly inferior to bottom sockets. They can be applied to the hidden channels of various buildings and glass curtain walls, with the advantage of easy installation.
3. Wiring Method for the Bottom Wire Outlet at Both Ends of the LED Line Light:
The bottom outlet involves washing a slit at both ends of the aluminum profile of the line light and using a threaded head with a tail clip to clip the tail into the aluminum slit and screw on the plug. In addition to seamless connectivity, the bottom wire outlet LED line lights can also hide the docking and power wires at the bottom of the light because the case of the bottom wire outlet light is H-shaped. Hiding cables underneath is convenient, and installing bottom sockets makes the building more attractive. Now, more customers prefer this model!
Generally, how to calculate the wire outlet distance for LED line lights? AODE Lighting reminds everyone that calculating the wire outlet distance for this LED line light is actually very simple.
The above are the three common connection methods for LED line lights, shared for everyone's benefit. I hope this helps.
