WAC Lighting Monorail Suspension and Power Components
monorail suspension and power components
Our monorail lights are powered by low voltage transformers. All low voltage power is subject to a condition called voltage drop, which limits the distance power can travel. There are various factors that influence the distance that can be achieved before voltage drop becomes an issue, including, among others, the gauge of wire used, the wattage of the transformer, the type of transformer (electronic or magenetic) and the load being drawn from the transformer. The two tables displayed here are meant to provide a guideline concerning voltage drop as it relates to the W.A.C. monorail system. These data are based on a full load to the end of the monorail. The first table covers surface-mounted transformers and indicates the length of rail that can be connected to the respective surface-mounted transformer; please note that the point of connection of the transformer to the rail can occur at any point along the length of the rail. The second table covers remote transformers, and indicates the allowable distance from the transformer to the remote power feed, using various gauges of wire, and the length or rail that can be connected to the remote power feed (again, the remote power feed can be connected at any point along the length of rail).

In contrast to new construction housings, remodeling housings are appropriate when you have limited or no access to the space above a new fixture, such as in an apartment or a home without crawl spaces or attics above.
New Construction Housings
In contrast to remodeling housings, new construction housings are bulkier and need to be installed between joist beams or onto hangar bars and thus you need full access to the space above the fixture. This style is best used if you are building in a new space, gutting a room, or have an attic above or pop out ceiling, etc.
Non-IC Rated
Non-IC stands for: non insulation contact. Thus, non-IC-rated housings must be kept at least 3 inches away from any insulation.
IC Rated
IC stands for: insulation contact. Thus, IC-rated housings can come in direct contact with thermal insulation.
MR16 Halogen Bulb
MR 16 is a standard format for halogen multifaceted reflector light bulbs. MR16 lamps are regularly used in place of standard incandescent light bulbs as they harness and shoot light, resulting in less light loss than a traditional bulb. These are best used when you want focused light such as in a pendant over a countertop or an accent light on a painting.
cUL Listed
CUL stands for Underwriters Laboratories of Canada, a non-profit company that tests electrical components and equipment for potential hazards. If something is UL-listed, I means it has met the agency's safety requirements for things like fire, shock hazards, etc. While you can buy and install non-UL listed fixtures, sometimes insurance policies will limit their liabilities accordingly, inspectors may not approve permits, etc.

Damp Location
If the environment exposes the lighting system to moisture condensation, then the location is a damp location. Lights that are approved for damp locations can be used in sheltered outdoor areas such as roofed porches or interior locations subject to moderated degrees of moisture such as basements.
Wet Location
If the lighting system is exposed to direct impact by water from splashing or dripping, which will make the fixture wet, then the location is a wet location. Your most common wet locations are uncovered outdoor areas.
Baffle Trim
The term Baffle refers to the grooved style of the trim. This trim is the most popular choice of all recessed lighting trims and is best used in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and dens.
Open Reflector
Reflector trims have a higly polished inner trim, which gives the most amount of light off of the light bulb. This trim is perfect for use in kitchens, offices and commercial buildings.
Slotted Aperture
The slotted aperture trim is used to highlight or accent a specific object or space.
Pin Hole
Pin Hole trims give off a narrow spread of light. This trim is perfect for highlight a small object from above.
Baffle
The term Baffle refers to the grooved style of the trim. This trim is the most popular choice of all recessed lighting trims and is best used in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and dens.
Step Baffle
A Step Baffle refers to the evenly spaced and large grooves in the trim. This trim is for use in all living spaces in a house (bedrooms, living rooms, and dens).
Wall Wash
Wall Wash trims will have a shield inserted into the trim. This allows the light to be directed at an angle against a wall or large surface: paintings, large photos, etc.
Gimbal Ring
Gimbal Ring trims allow the light bulb to be directed or angled to highlight a specific spot or general area. This trim is popular in living rooms, dens and home offices.
Eyeball
Eyeball trims refer to the look of the trim as an eyeball. The bulb is housed in the eyeball portion and allows for maximum adjustability in positioning the light. This trim is for use in living rooms, dens and home offices.
Aperture Cone
This trim is for use when superior performance photometrics is desired and low glare is needed. These trims are typically used in commercial applications.
Regressed Fresnel Lens
Lensed trims are for use in wet locations, such as showers, bathrooms and outside applications.
Scoop Wall Wash
Scoop Wall Wash trims will have a shield inserted into the trim. This allows the light to be directed at an angle against a wall or large surface: paintings, large photos, etc.).
