Electrical Connections
NOTE: Refer to the power supply installation instructions for loading and remote mounting information.
Run a wire from the Power Supply and connect to
the first LED module on the strip.
Must be used with a class 2 24 Volt DC Power
Supply.
Cap all exposed wires with appropriate end caps
or apply electric grade (non-conductive) silicone
for additional weather protection.
Connect modules using twist-on wire connectors
or in-line (IDC) connectors. Join white wires
together and red striped wires together.
NOTE: Additional supply wire may be necessary to
bridge electrical connections.
Connect the red stripe wire (+) of the LED
system to the red wire (+) of the power supply.
Connect the white wire (-) of the LED system to
the black or blue wire (-) of the power supply.
NOTE: All electrical connections should be
made within the box sign.
NOTE: Do not use connectors pre-filled with silicone grease/mineral base protective grease or use silicone grease
to seal connections.
NOTE: All electrical connections should be suitably protected from mechanical damage and the environment. Seal all
connections in locations that may be exposed to water with electrical grade RTV silicone.
