How to Install And Use Underwater LED Light Correctly?

The rated voltage of underwater LED light is the electrical parameter standard data. It directly determines the operating environment. The actual task voltage must be consistent with the rated voltage. Otherwise, either the light source is burned out due to excessive voltage, or the lighting effect cannot be achieved due to too low voltage.

Generally, low-voltage safety voltages are used for underwater LED light, which involves low-voltage high-current power supply that will affect the voltage drop of the line. The voltage drop at the end of each line must be calculated first, and redundancy should be reserved in advance. Second, the electrical connection box or 12V low voltage transformer must be at least 20 cm high from the pool water level line, 20 cm high from the ground, and at least 120 cm from the water's edge. Within 150 cm of the pool, the lighting assembly and other metal parts should be connected with wires and have a good ground. The underwater light circuit must have a leakage protection socket and a circuit breaker. Before servicing and repairing, the power supply connecting the light and the broken circuit must be cut off.

When installing underwater LED light, you should consult the local architectural design authority to ensure that the swimming pool electrical system meets the standard before performing the following operations:

1. The installation position of the lamp should be a vertical wall, and the top of the lamp should be 45.5 cm below the normal horizontal surface;

2. Wind at least 120 cm of electric wires behind the underwater lights, so that the underwater lights can be taken out of the water surface for maintenance and repair when the swimming pool is full of water.

3. Reserve at least 15 cm long wires at the junction box for connection.

4. After connecting the two wires to the corresponding position in the junction box, close the junction box cover and seal tightly.

5. Turn the light slightly to ensure that the light has been fixed on the mounting bracket.

6. Underwater hanging lights with stainless steel housing must be grounded.

7. The swimming pool underwater light can only be used by immersing in water to avoid long-term dry burning to damage the light source.

8. Safety isolation transformers must be used

It is recommended that when installing or repairing underwater lights, you must ask a qualified electrician or professionally qualified maintenance personnel to install, and install in accordance with local laws and regulations.
