F: Follow NEC guidelines.

E: Equip yourself with proper PPE.

T: Treat the wires as live.

Y: You are responsible.


Beyond safety, here are a few important things to keep in mind.

  • Install in accordance with national and local electrical code regulations.
  • This product is intended to be installed and serviced by a qualified, licensed electrician.
  • Only use copper wiring. Use wires rated for at least 194 degrees F (90 degrees C) and certified for use with external connection of electrical equipment.
  • Ensure applicable wire is installed between driver, fixture, and any controls in-between. When choosing wire, factor in voltage drop, amperage rating, and type (in-wall rated, wet location rated, etc.). Inadequate wire installation could overheat wires and cause fire.
  • Do not install in environment where excessive heat may exist (ex. Close proximity to fireplace, etc.) See Ambient Temperature ratings.
  • Do not modify product beyond instructions or warranty will be void.
  • Actual color may vary from what is pictured on this sheet and other print materials due to the limitations of photographic processes.
  • We reserve the right to modify and improve the design of our fixtures without prior notice. We cannot guarantee to match existing installed fixtures for subsequent orders or replacements in regards to product appearance, CCT, or lumen output.
  • This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
  • For single gang box install only.
  • *The face panel is not replaceable.
Installation Steps

1. Turn power off at circuit breaker.


2. Determine location to install componenets.

  • Dimmable LED strip light

3. Remove existing switch (if necessary).


4. Attach isolation barrier plate.

NOTE: NEC CODE 725.136: Class 1 and Class 2 circuits in same enclosure must be separated by an isolation barrier plate unless Class 2 circuits conductors are installed in accordance with 725.41 Class 1 Circuits. For example, Non-Metallic (NM) cable is considered a Class 1 circuit conductor. Therefore, if both high voltage and low voltage are installed with NM cable then the isolation barrier plate is not required for installation.

Barrier A and Barrier B

Isolation barrier plate A: Separate high voltage and low voltage spaces.

  1. Align isolation plate A with the opening of the rotating column on the bottom shell.
  2. Push it in the direction of the arrow until the buckle is stuck on the outer wall of the rotating column.
  3. The isolation plate can rotate left and right by a certain angle to adjust the space of the high and low power zones.
Barrier A Installation Method

Isolation barrier plate B: Rotatable, changes the direction of input and output lines, better utilizes space, and facilitates wiring and installation.

  1. Align isolation plate B with the opening of the rotating column on the bottom shell.
  2. Push it in the direction of the arrow until the buckle clicks onto the outer wall of the rotating column.
Barrier B Installation
  1. Isolation plate B is designed to meet the requirements of different input lines in different orientations and positions. The isolation plate can be rotated to achieve the wiring of input lines above or below.
Barrier B Installation continued

Shallow Wall Boxes: For shallow boxes, isolation barrier plate can be shortened. Grip with pliers. Bend back and forth until fin breaks off.


5. Wire up the dimmer.

The LED Driver + Dimmer switch requires unique wiring steps. Read thoroughly.

  1. Strip wires on driver. For shallow boxes, isolation barrier plate can be shortened. Grip with pliers. Bend back and forth until fin breaks off.
  2. Wire dimmer. Ensure power is OFF. Use included voltage partition when installed into a gang box. Use wire rated for at least 300V. Gang box and vertical partition must comply with UL514C article 6 requirements.

6. Mount Driver + Dimmer Switch to the single-gang box and attach wall plate (not included).

Fix the LED driver + dimmer switch on the wall with screws. Next, fix a decorative wall plate (not included) on the LED driver + dimmer switch.
