How to Wire & Install This Power Supply

Verify Compatibility: Ensure your LED lights require a DC 12V input and their total power draw is 36W or less.
Calculate Load: For best performance and longevity, load the driver to no more than 80% of its capacity (approx. 28.8W). To learn more, read our guide on how to calculate power for LED strip lights.
Connect AC Input: ⚠ SAFETY FIRST! Disconnect mains power before wiring. Connect the Live (Brown) and Neutral (Blue) input wires to your 110-220V AC source.
Connect DC Output: Connect the positive (Red) and negative (Black) output wires to your 12V LED lighting, carefully observing correct polarity.
Test System: Once all connections are secure, restore mains power and confirm your lights operate as expected.
Mount Securely: Install the power supply in a location that allows for adequate air circulation for cooling. Avoid direct, prolonged sun exposure.

⚠ Precautions

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Incorrect wiring can permanently damage the power supply and your LED fixtures.
Never exceed the 36W maximum load. Maintaining an 80% load margin is highly recommended.
While the driver body is IP67 rated, ensure all wire connections are also properly waterproofed for outdoor use using appropriate connectors or enclosures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What's the difference between a constant voltage and constant current driver?

A:This is a constant voltage driver, which maintains a stable 12V output.

Q: Is this 12V LED driver power supply dimmable?

A:No, this is a standard non-dimmable switching power supply. To dim your lights, you would need a separate dimmable driver and a compatible dimming controller or switch.

Q: How much LED strip lighting can this 36W driver power?

A:It depends on the strip's power consumption per meter. For example, a strip that uses 10W/meter could be powered for up to 2.8 meters (36W * 0.8 / 10W/m). Always check your strip's specifications.

Q: Can I use this power supply indoors?

A:Absolutely. Its robust, waterproof design makes it an excellent and safe choice for indoor applications, especially in areas with potential moisture like kitchens, bathrooms, or basements.

Q: What are the exact dimensions of this driver?

A:The dimensions are 173mm in length, 21mm in width, and 20mm in height (approximately 6.81" x 0.83" x 0.79"), making it very compact and easy to hide.
