4.2 CONT. LIGHTING BASES
4. Lighting
1.
Measure the width of the wall cabinet.
2.
Mark where the holes for the lamps will be positioned, and measure the centre of the pre-milled grooves on the back. Drill through with a
small drill from the back, then turn the panel and drill through with a hole cutter; check the diameter of the selected lights.
3.
Fit the bulbs and place the cables in the grooves on the back. Save a little extra cable just inside the bulbs.
4.
Many of our wall cabinets at heights of 700, 850 and 988 mm can be ordered with a groove for cable laying (against a surcharge) on the
outside, which are then hidden by adjacent cabinets or by a decorative side. Otherwise, the cables can be drawn through electric conduits
or through the bottom of the cabinets. It is also possible to mill grooves in the outside of a cabinet which are covered by a decorative side
or another cabinet, or alternatively to mill grooves on the inside in the back edge of a decorative side and draw the cables through that.
There is space milled out in the lighting base to place the power strip (with sockets for 6 LED bulbs) and connect up the LED bulbs. Save a
few centimetres of cable inside the bulbs to make it easy to remove the bulbs if necessary, without taking down the entire lighting base. The
power strip’s cable can then be drawn up through the cable groove (if a cabinet with a groove has been ordered) and the driver can be
placed above the cabinet or somewhere nearby.
5.
Check where the cables have been laid and where the lighting bases are pre-milled. Drill pilot holes through the bottom of the cabinet and
use connection screws to fix the bases in place in the cabinets. DO NOT screw into the pre-milled grooves. When installing a lighting base
with screws from inside the frame, the screw heads can be covered with cover plugs, white 20 mm, with art. no. 39226.
6.
The driver for the LED lighting can be hidden either inside the cabinets or above the cabinets.
7.
Vedum has a white cover 140x140 mm with art. no. 39307 for installing inside a cabinet. In this case, make a recess in the top of the wall
cabinet to access the driver, if it is located above the wall cabinet. This recess should be covered with the cover and installed with four
white screws (supplied).
