Light string plug installation guide five key points
Date:2024-12-5

1, the light wire indoor installation

When the lamp string plug is used for interior decoration, it is very simple to install because it does not have to withstand wind and rain. Taking the light string produced by light Rainbow Electronics as an example, the back of each light string is pasted with self-adhesive 3M double-sided tape. When installing, the sticker on the surface of 3M double-sided tape can be directly removed, and then the lamp strip is fixed in the place where it needs to be installed. What about places that need corners or are long? Very simple, the lamp string is a circuit structure composed of 3 leds in series and parallel, and every 3 leds can be cut off and used alone.

2, light wire plug outdoor installation

Outdoor installation because it will be subjected to wind and rain, if 3M glue is used to fix it, a long time will cause 3M adhesivities to be reduced and the lamp strings to fall off, so outdoor installation is often fixed by card slot. Where you need to cut and connect, the method is the same as indoor installation, but you need to be equipped with waterproof glue to consolidate the waterproof effect of the connection point.

3. Power connection method of power cord plug

The general voltage of the lamp string is DC 12V, so it is necessary to use a switching power supply, and the size of the power supply is determined according to the power of the lamp string and the connection length. If you do not want each lamp string to be controlled by a power supply, you can buy a relatively large switching power supply as the total power supply, and then all the lamp string input power supply is connected in parallel (if the wire size is not enough, it can be extended), and it is unified by the total switching power supply. The advantage of this is that it can be centrally controlled, and the inconvenient place is that the lighting effect and switch control of a single lamp string can not be achieved, and the specific way can be measured by yourself.

4, light string controller connection

LED lights and RGB full color lights need to use the controller to achieve the changing effect, and the control distance of each controller is not the same, in general, the control distance of the simple controller is 10 to 15 meters, the control distance of the remote control controller is 15 to 20 meters, and the longest can be controlled to 30 meters. If the connection distance of the lamp string is long, and the controller can not control that long lamp strip, then the power amplifier is needed to tap.

5, pay attention to the connection distance of the lamp string plug

In general, the 3528 series of lights have a connection distance of up to 20 meters, and the 5050 series of lights have a connection distance of up to 15 meters. If the connection distance is exceeded, the lamp string is easy to heat, and the service life of the lamp string will be affected during use. Therefore, the installation must be installed in accordance with the requirements of the manufacturer, and do not let the lamp overload operation.
