Installation Advice
IMPORTANT
· Always turn off the electricity supply at the mains before beginning any electrical work.
· Always mount transformers and converters in a horizontal orientation. Do not mount transformers or AC/DC converters
vertically.
· VARILIGHT AC/DC converters are suitable for indoor use only.
· Install in a well-ventilated location, away from heat sources (the maximum operating temperature is 40°C).
· Do not connect the output cables of one transformer or converter to those of another.
· Observe the correct polarity when connecting the LED load.
· To achieve even light levels use identical lengths of LED strip on the output side of the AC/DC converter(s).
· The light switch or dimmer switch should be located on the primary (input) side of the transformer.
· If you require a longer cable than supplied (for transformers and AC/DC converters with integral cables) then use a
proprietary terminal block to connect a suitable additional cable (min 2 x1.0mm
2
, ensuring no bare wires protrude from the
terminals.
