Complete wiring guide for LED aluminum profile installations including power supply selection, connector types, and safety considerations.
Proper wiring is essential for safe and reliable LED profile installations.
Start by calculating total power consumption: multiply LED strip wattage per meter by total length, then add 20% safety margin for power supply sizing.
Use appropriate gauge wire (typically 18-22 AWG for runs under 5 meters).
Connect LED strips using solderless connectors or solder joints, ensuring polarity is correct.
For runs longer than 5 meters, use power injection to prevent voltage drop.
Always use a properly rated power supply with over-current and short-circuit protection..
