STANDARD WIRING LAYOUT
• The power supply, or driver, must always be installed between the
RIBBON light and the 120V AC Line voltage. (See next page for
more wiringdiagramlayouts).
• Each16.4foot12VRIBBONlightsectionmustbeindividuallywired
to your 12V DC power supply. Each 20 foot 24V Ultra Blaze
RIBBON light section must be individually wired to your 24V DC
powersupply.
