Before you begin
We know how boring it can be to read instructions, so we’ll keep this installation guide as short and sweet as possible.
Before you begin with your installation, be sure to fully read these instructions. They contain many useful tips and
pointers that will help to ensure a perfect installation, save you time, and ensure your safety.
It is important that you install this product (and all other electrical products) in accordance with the National Electric
Code (NEC) and all applicable local building and electrical codes for your area. If you are unfamiliar with the NEC,
your local building/electrical codes, and/or the proper installation methods for electrical devices, you should hire a
qualied and licensed electrician to do the work for you.
Before beginning any electrical work, always
disconnect power at the fuse or circuit breaker.

Important considerations
This xture is suitable for use in dry or damp locations.
When using this xture in exterior damp locations, it must be installed where it is protected from rain or other
moisture by installing in a weatherproof electrical enclosure like the one shown in Figure 1.
This product is suitable for environments of ambient temperatures
between -4°F to 104°F (-20°C to 40°C).
It is important that power supplies are not installed outside this range. Precautions should be taken when
installing in ambient temperatures of over 100°F to avoid overheating and damage to the driver. Refer to the
derating curve in Figure 4.

Drivers housed in a non-conductive plastic casing don’t
required a framed ground connection if a framed ground
connection is not required. When utilizing 3- conductor cables,
trim the ground wire ush with sheathing. Make sure that the
wire sheathing is set on top of the wire strain relief once covers
are reattached.

Use a wire stripper to expose the bare stranded copper wire before placing
on top of the metal plates in the screw terminal. Use a mini Phillips or
athead screwdriver to turn screw clockwise to raise metal plate and clamp
wire. Screw terminals t up to 12AWG solid-core copper wire.
DO NOT place wire underneath plate and clamp by screwing
counterclockwise.
Use a screwdriver and screws for attaching the power supply to sturdy
surface. Remove the wiring compartment access covers using a screwdriver.

Installation
Determine a suitable location to install the 3 components, as labeled in
System Diagram.

These components will include suitable wire installed between the power supply, the LED light xture, and
any controls or dimmer switches. It is important to choose the correct wire for the specic application, this is
dependent on voltage drop, amperage rating, and environment. Please consult a voltage drop and wire sizing
chart to determine adequate wire size. Using the incorrect wire size will damage your products and pose a re
risk! If installing wiring in a wall or ceiling, always use appropriately rated in-wall wiring.
Using the two mounting holes as labeled in Wiring Connections,
fasten the driver to a sturdy surface in the desired orientation using
appropriate screws and screwdriver.

20W AND 45W DIMMABLE POWER SUPPLY INSTALLATION GUIDE
Attach your LED light xtures (making sure the load is at least 60%
the power supply’s labeled load) and dimmer switch by referring to
the System Diagram and installation guides for both the lights and
dimmers available at www.aspectled.com.
When installing in ambient temperatures that may reach over 100°, refer to the derating curve in Figure 4 to
avoid overheating and damage to the driver.
Do not install dierent LED xture types on the same power supply as
ickering and faulty dimming may occur.
Before reconnecting power at the fuse or circuit breaker, install any additional components and verify all
connections.
Once you’ve nished, double check all connections and turn on power
to your circuit.
Test functionality of your installation. If you experience any issues, immediately disconnect power to your
installation and see the trouble shooting guide on page 9, or contact technical support at [phone]
option 3 or suppor[email protected].
Congratulations!
You’ve successfully completed the installation process. Once your light is installed, your project is nished.
Now is a great time to take a moment to sit down and enjoy your favorite beverage while giving yourself a pat
on the back for a job well done.

Installation trips main breaker
• Ensure a compatible constant voltage dimmable xture is installed.
• Verify a compatible dimming switch is installed. If ickering is apparent at low light levels, install a compatible
trim-adjustable dimming switch.
• Make sure the driver is not overloaded.
• Ensure correct input voltage
• Check that all connections are properly secured.
• Make sure dierent light xture types are not connected to the same driver, as dierent types of xtures must
be connected to their own individual drivers.
• Ensure a compatible constant voltage dimmable xture is installed.
• Ensure a compatible dimmer switch is installed and wired correctly.
• Check System Diagram, Wiring Connections and installation guides of all components.
• Ensure the system is wired correctly and positive connections are connected to positive, and negative
connections are wired to negative.
• Ensure a compatible constant voltage dimmable xture is installed.
• Make sure dierent light xture types are not connected to the same driver. Dierent xtures must be
connected to their own individual drivers.
• Check wiring for a short circuit. If breaker continues to trip, there might be a short in your circuit. Call a licensed
electrician for assistance.
