Starter Lighting Distribution Box
The Starter Lighting Distribution Box is at the heart of the flex7 lighting connection range and at its simplest provides for plug-in connection of multiple luminaires controlled by a single switch or control device. In common with all units in the range the type of lighting control can be simple on/off or dimmable. If using third party control products (i.e. switches/sensors) they will require hard wiring to the input terminals provided, but for ease of installation we strongly recommend selecting the appropriate control from our extensive range of plug-in lighting control devices. Reserve one outlet for this method.
Key Features
- Outlets rated 16A 230V. Total system rating 16A.
- Large capacity input terminals can accept 3 x 2.5mm², 2 x 4mm² or 1 x 6 mm² conductors.
- 7-pole – ideal for on/off or dimming control
- End outlet can be used as a spare, or to plug-in additional units.
- All units come with unique snap on/off single point fixing brackets.
Expanding a Starter Unit
If you simply need to connect a single group of luminaires, then a Started Distribution Box allows you to do just that.
If you want to add extra luminiares at any stage you just need to plug an Expansion Box into your Starter Box to provide extra outlets.
If you want to control a 2nd group of luminaires separately, share power from your Starter Box with a Supply Tap-Off Box by plugging it into the extra outlet.
You can plug them in direct unit-to-unit, or via a lead
Wiring Diagrams
Using flex7 plug-in control devices c/w integral emergency luminaire test means only a permanent live, neutral and earth are required.
Using flex7 plug-in control devices without integral emergency test means only a permanent live, emergency live, neutral and earth are required.
Using more traditional hard-wired control and emergency luminaire test means a permanent live, emergency live, neutral, earth and switch live are required.
Incorporating alongside a centralised control system means a permanent live, neutral, earth and control pair eg. DALI are required.
Standard flex7 wiring configuration for all 7 terminals in a Started Distribution Box.
