Installation methods

When purchasing light fixtures, make sure the installation method of the fixture is appropriate, safe, good-looking and technically possible. There are many different installation methods and you should choose the appropriate one for your site.

Different ways of installing a light fixture:

• Surface-mounted
  

  Surface-mounted light fixtures are not immersed in the furniture structure but are installed either directly on the surface or using a mounting ring. The wiring and electrical connection may still remain inside the structures.
  
  

• Recessed
  

  For recessed light fixtures, a recess is made for the fixture. The body of the light fixture is then installed inside the recess. Please note the required installation depth and the hole diameter.
  
  

• Ceiling-mounted/suspended
  

  Ceiling-mounted or suspended light fixtures are installed on the ceiling of a room or on a panel that serves as a ceiling.
  
  

• Plug-in
  

  The plug-in light fixtures include a plug connector that’s plugged into a power socket.
  
  

• Fixed
  

  Light fixtures that are installed fixed are directly connected to the mains.

LIMENTE light fixtures and power sockets are available surface-mounted and recessed. Pendants have a plug-in connector. Regardless of the installation method, all the necessary connectors are included in delivery of the light fixtures. The connectors for 24 V LIMENTE light fixtures are fixed in the fixture, whereas the connectors for 240 V LIMENTE light fixtures are unattached.
