BASIC RULES FOR THE INSTALLATION OF POWER SUPPLIES
1. Study the voltage (V) and the wattage consumption (W) of the installation to be carried out, in order to be able to correctly choose the
appropriate power supply.
2. Never place the power supply in closed boxes (allow to ventilate).
3. Depending on the type of installation we must install the power supply in the right place (to avoid sudden voltage drops). It is not advisable
to place the source at a distance greater than 3 metre (maximum recommended) and if so, we must use thicker wiring.
4. If the installation is exterior, or in any place where there is moisture or condensation, it is essential to use waterproof power supplies (as
well as other components such as leds, connections, etc.)
5. To prevent overheating we recommend not overloading the power supplies in more than 85% of their theoretical maximum load (for
example with a 100W source don’t connect more than 85W). The same should apply to amplifiers, sequencers, dimmers and other
accessories.
6. We recommend placing the power supplies on materials which favour dissipation, such as aluminum and other metals.
7. Do not stack power supplies as this can lead to malfunctions (caloric condensation and radiofrequency switching).
8. We must take special care when installing the power supplies, especially where there are risks of corrosion from external liquids, as well
as places where there are high risks of fire and /or explosions.
