STREET WRAP GEN 2™ MOUNTING BRACKET LAYOUT
1. Use a chalk line, gauge, laser level, or other means to be certain the run is straight, marking locations for brackets.
Install three (3), evenly spaced, mounting brackets per section. Ensure there are at least two inches between the end
of the track and the mounting bracket as shown in the picture above.
Use a 0.125” drill bit to add a drain hole in lens in the center of the run. Never drill drain hole when installed on the
LED base.

Note: There must be a 0.1875” space left between each section when using middle or corner connectors.

INSTALLING STREET WRAP GEN 2™ INTO MOUNTING BRACKETS
Connect wires from one section to another using red butt splice wire connectors, silicone lled wire
nuts or TE connectors. No more than two (2) 96”units in a series.
Lay the section being added on the mounting brackets. After making wire connections, tuck the wires
and connectors BEHIND the base track. Caulk notch.
Place track with LEDs, but no lens, over mounting brackets and press rmly, until securely snapped in
place.
Bring Street Wrap™ sections close together by pushing sections together, leave a 0.1875”approximate
expansion gap between track sections.
Install Lens on LED base.
Install an End Cap at the beginning and end of runs with silicone.
Finish by clipping a middle connector over both sections. Use a small amount of silicone.

CUSTOM CUT TO FIT END OF RUNS & CORNERS
Peel back light tape before cutting track.
Measure, mark and cut lens and track to required length. Use a ne blade.
Add drain holes in the center of the cut piece of lens before reinstalling the lens to the base.
Reinstall light tape to desired length ensuring to silicone down the tape and using silicone to seal cuts made to light tape.

MOUNTING STREET WRAP GEN 2™ ON INCLINE OR VERTICALLY
When mounting Street Wrap Gen 2™ on an incline or vertically, two things must be prevented. First the Street Wrap Gen 2™ must be kept from sliding down, while still allowing
for expansion/contraction with temperature changes. Second, water must be sealed out with silicone since it will run down the top of the Street Wrap Gen 2™. Seal the middle
connectors to the upper Street Wrap Gen 2™ to keep water from penetrating.
Drill one (1) hole in the end cap on the bottom end of the run to allow water to escape.

Connect power supplies to primary wiring.
Install strain relief for low voltage wire.
Drill 1/2” hole through the fascia. A conduit tting can be
installed so that conduit can be used.
Insert low voltage wire into the hole and connect to LED.
Fill hole with silicone sealant.
Note: Stop and make sure the supplied power supply is
277VAC rated with any primary voltage greater than 120.
