2) INSTALLATION

Radiant Lighting will not accept responsibility for incorrect installation of fittings. Please be sure the following requirements are adhered to;

 

• The fitting is suitable for the environmental conditions that it will be exposed to. This can be done by checking the Ingress Protection (IP) rating.

• The correct lamp or light source is used. All fittings have been designed, engineered and tested to function correctly with the light source specified alongside each product.

• All external wall mounted fittings are installed with a seal between the fixture and wall to avoid water damage, this will ensure the warranty is not void.

• All recessed fittings are installed with the appropriate canisters where required.

• Appropriate dimmers are used at all times.

• Appropriate transformers or drivers for low wattage fittings are used at all times.

• Installation is completed by a qualified technician, compliant with Australian Standards.

5) DIMMING and DIMMER COMPATABILITY

Dimming switches / control units are only sold with a small selection of our luminaires, these are otherwise supplied and installed by the electrician.

Please be aware, not all luminaries are dimmable; we suggest you ensure dimming requirements are discussed prior to purchase to avoid disappointment or potential damage to the fitting.

Please ensure the electrician has checked compatibility of the dimmer for the luminaires and also if CBUS or similar is being used; most common dimming systems will be compatible but this is never guaranteed.
