2. Power Connection Options - Recommended - One of the following Power Connection Options can be very useful with your Incandescent or LED Rope Lighting. Choose carefully from the Power Connection Options Chart below, to assure that you make the appropriate choice. Warranty does NOT cover issues caused by incorrect wiring on your part. If unsure, call us and/or hire a licensed electrician.

 

Power Options 2A through 2E use various 6' Power Cord Kits. Each has a connector assembly with pins that push into the end of the rope light, making connection with the wires inside the rope light jacket. A compression fitting is then tightened to hold the Power Cord to the Rope Light, as shown below.

Power Option 2F


Installation Note: LED rope lighting contains diodes that allow the electricity to flow in one direction only. Because of this, when you hook up power to the LED rope lighting, it may not illuminate. If this is the case, disconnect the power and reconnect it to the other end of the LED rope lighting. Before you install your LED rope lights, connect the power and verify illumination. Then as you do your installation, beware of which end you need to feed the power to.
