  • Page 2 24 volts, the operating voltage of the LEDStripe system. Each transformer has 3 individual outputs. Each output powers 30 feet of LEDStripe for a total of 90 feet per transformer. PowerLED transformers draw a maximum of 3 amps each on the primary power side and in most cases draw considerably less current.

  • Page 6 Using the drawings or field survey, determine the length of each side of the building or single continuous straight run where LEDStripe will be installed. Break these lengths into sections of 30 feet or less. (30 feet is the maximum length of LEDStripe that can be run on one leg of a transformer).
  • Page 7: Environmental Considerations

    PowerLED transformers can be mounted anywhere on or in the building at a maximum distance from the LEDStripe of 50 feet (if 14 AWG UL Listed PLTC is used between the PowerLED and the LEDStripe). A distance of 15’ or less when the 18 AWG UL Listed PLTC cables provided are used.
  • Page 8 The next step is to determine the location of the centerline of the LEDStripe product relative to the top or bottom of building or canopy. Snap a chalk line in the location of this centerline.

    With the LEDStripe section oriented such that the large connector is located on the left side (as you are facing the building) and the bracket on top, guide the LEDStripe onto the buttons. If there is an obstacle to sliding the LEDStirpe unit onto the buttons, it can also be snapped on.
  • Page 10 After the section is securely on the wall, slide it into its final position. When the LEDStripe section is in the correct location, secure it in place using the center mounting bracket with a #8 pan head screw of the correct thread type and length for the mounting surface you are securing the product to.
