* Driver may not require a fault ground connection. Refer to
driver specifications for additional information.
*** Install a Class 2 constant voltage driver compatible with
a low voltage PWM controller/dimmer switch. Refer to each
driver specification sheet for full power ratings & load
deratings.
**** Determine the number of low voltage outputs of the
driver when installing multiple PWM controllers/dimmer
switches. No more than one PWM controller/dimmer switch
can be attached to a single output of the driver.
‡ Refer to driver or controller specifications for a compatible
junction box.
‡‡ See fixture specifications for maximum series run limits.
§ See in-line accessories specifications for maximum
amperage ratings.
