How to Select LED Lighting

LED Lighting is the most innovative form of lighting on the market today, saving as much as 80% on electrical costs versus conventional lighting.

When choosing your lighting, consider:

1. Voltage:

• Low Voltage – low voltage(usually 12v) lighting is typically used for under cabinet lighting, outdoor lighting, or landscape lighting. Ambient lighting sometimes uses low voltage fixtures as well. However, a low voltage fixture will not operate properly in line voltage connections. If connected to a line voltage (120v), it may cause electrical fire or damage to the fixture and surrounding area.
• Line Voltage – Line voltage, is the common term for standard 120v power. Standard household electricity is line voltage. You should not connect low voltage fixtures to line voltage connections.  If you plan to install lighting inside your home besides accent lighting, you will most likely use line voltage lighting.

2. Commercial Grade:

If the installation is a commercial building, consider using Commercial Grade fixtures which can handle heavier duty electrical currents and higher voltage. These fixtures are safer for regular use in commercial situations.

3. Insulated Ceiling:

If you ceiling has additional insulation, please consider using a housing that is suitable for this. At Westside Wholesale, we offer models that are suitable. If you do not have insulation in your ceiling, we also have models that fit your application.

4. Interconnectable:

Certain LED lighting models are designed to be interconnected to a series of lighting for dimming or to connect to a lighting control module.

5. Color:

When refining by color, you will notice that it refers to several color variables whether it be the finish on the metal trim, or the color of the LED elements.
