Q:What is the difference between a standard on/off switch and a 3-way switch on your Dual Linear CCF lights?
A:The 3-way switch is only used on red/white lensed lights. Therefore the part number must start with I5TR in order to use a 3-way switch. All other switched light styles use the standard on/off switch.
Q:Can
you explain the CCF Light part numbering scheme?
A:The
CCF Light part numbers (Single Linear, Dual Linear, 6” Round, and Reading
lights) are all eight digits long, made up of alpha-numeric characters.
Each unique character tells you something about the type of light.
See below for a part numbering legend.
Q:My
new CCF lights look like they have a “pinkish” tone to them? Is something
wrong?
A:New
CCF lights will glow with a “pinkish” tone for the first few minutes of
operation. Once the lights reach their normal operating temperature
this “pinkish” color will disappear forever. This only occurs the
first time you use a new CCF light.
Q:What
do I do with the blue wire on my lights?
A:
If you are not using a Taylorbrite dimmer you should connect the blue wire
directly to the power wire (red or orange color) or you can wire it to
an on/off switch for external switching capabilities. If you are using
a Taylorbrite dimmer, the blue wire should be wired to the dimmer.
Q:What
are the two white wires on the dimmer for and what do I do with them?
A:If
you are not using a three way switch, the white wires should be left unconnected.
Take care to protect the individual wire ends with a wire nut or electrical
tape, so they cannot touch each other. Do not wire the two white wires
together.If you are using a three way switch system, the two white wires
should be wired to the switch.
Q:How
much power do Taylorbrite lights draw? What is their light output?
A:All
Taylorbrite lights are energy efficient and draw very little power.
Please see each light’s unique specifications listed on the website, under
the Product Catalog page.
Q:How
many lights can be run off of one dimming module?
A:
Up
to 20 lights per dimmer.
Q:Can
I mount my Taylorbrite lights outside?
A:
Taylorbrite
lights are weather resistant, but cannot be fully exposed to the elements.
Therefore, we recommend mounting your lights under a radar arch or bimini
top for outside applications. |
