Connecting Multiple Light Tape® Segments

Only one connection is required to power Light Tape®. Terminating the other end is not necessary. Please see connection guide or our website's online video for "How-To" instructions.

It is possible to operate one lamp or multiple lamps with only one Smart Driver™ Power Supply. The system works on total surface area or total power required.

Parallel

Connecting lamps in Parallel is the preferred method over connecting in series. Make all connections per local electrical codes. For remote locations and long runs, please use EMT conduit to shield AC signal.

Series

We DO NOT recommend connecting from one segment to the next in a “Daisy Chain.” Long runs in series or unbalanced loads can cause connectors to get hot due to resistance increasing from multiple connections. We recommend connecting in parallel.
