Practical help
Common problems
This indicates incompatibility between the transformer and the LED lamp or dimmer. Verify compatibility of all components.
Always disconnect the power supply before performing any installation, maintenance, or removal of the unit.
Before use
- Ensure the installation is performed by a qualified professional.
- Verify that the transformer is installed above insulation.
- Check that the installation location has good air flow and is away from heat sources.
- Confirm that the dimmer is installed on the power input wire.
- Use an IP-rated fixture if the application is in a wet environment.
Specs in practice
- Secondary cable length
- The cable connecting the transformer to the lamps must be between 30cm and 200cm.
- Safety class II
- Double insulated device, does not require a protective earth connection.
Images and diagrams
- The wiring scheme shows the power source (L/N) connected to a dimmer, which then feeds into the primary (PRI) side of the transformer.
- The secondary (SEC) side of the transformer connects directly to the 12V lamp load.
Model compatibility
- Compatible with 12V halogen and LED lamps.
- Compatible with most leading/trailing edge dimmers.
