Line Voltage Light Bars

Yes - they are UL and CUL listed.

The halogen lamps provide a pure white light source rather than the fluorescent colors that most people dislike.

The “P” (portable) indicates that the fixture is equipped with a 9’ cord and plug to be installed as a portable unit. The BA-LIV-2 is for direct wiring.

Bottom Plate (that mounts onto surface) : Three ½" knock-outs for BX or ROMAX cables.

End Cap : Two ½" oblong knock-outs on each end for making a continuous run.

Top plate : Three ½" knock-outs for installation of multiple fixtures.

Yes – the knock-out holes are provided so that wiring from one fixture to another is made possible. You may use regular BX or ROMAX wires commonly used by electricians. Since these are line voltage, you may wire them as far apart as you wish without a voltage drop.

Yes. When branch wired in parallel each bar light functions independently and can be dimmed and turned on and off separately. 

The chrome plated pieces are adapters for Romex® non-metallic building electrical wire and BX connectors. High heat wire nuts are provided to accomplish branch wiring if necessary.

Yes – they have a built-in Hi-Lo switch. When using an additional dimmer (a regular incandescent one will do) be sure to leave the Hi-Lo at High.

They come in three finishes – white, bronze and satin nickel. The white may be painted to color-match any surface.

Yes – you may purchase the LENS-BAL-CL to replace the frosted lens. They were fitted with frosted lenses to reduce glare.

Yes – they are suitable for damp locations (above the sink or bathroom), but not wet locations.

No – the heat will shorten the life of the light bars.

Both the low voltage and line voltage light bars are one inch (1") deep.
