* Basis of Cost Savings Estimates
Savings percentages are based on studies of multiple product families.
Fixture Savings: Based on traditional fixtures with integral driver vs. Connect Low Voltage fixture without junction box and integral driver.
Labor Savings: Based on time studies and electrical industry expert opinions. Connect LV+ fixtures take 80% less time to install compared to traditional installation. Installation times average 2 minutes for Connect fixtures versus 10 minutes for traditional line-voltage fixtures.
Material Savings Based on wiring costs of 12 AWG line-voltage wire versus 14 AWG low-voltage cable.
Actual savings vary depending on fixture wattage, number of home runs, and the distance between the power supply, panel, and fixtures.
