LED modules: everything you need to know
Lighting your business, your home or any other place is a subject that seems trivial, because anyone can buy electrical accessories. However, you need to know how to choose the right lamps for the job. LED bulbs, for example, are preferred for their longevity, clarity and energy savings. We present this lamp model in detail in our article.
What are LED bulbs?
LED lamps, or light-emitting diodes, use LEDs to operate. They consume less energy than fluorescent and incandescent lamps. They last longer and give off less heat. LED modules available include
- LED dimmer module.
- LED sign module.
- Integrated LED module.
- LED ceiling module.
- LED power supply module.
The main advantages of using them
LED lamps consume 80% less energy than incandescent lamps. They last 25,000 hours, compared with 1,000 hours for conventional lamps. They emit little heat, are recyclable, and offer optimum luminosity.
Recommendations for selecting LED modules
Here are the essential steps for choosing the right LED module:
- Determine the use: general, specific or decorative lighting.
- Validate the luminosity (lm) according to your specific needs.
- Choose 3000 K for warm light, 5000 K for cool light.
- Check the energy efficiency of your chosen LED modules.
- Check compatibility with dimmers.
- Consider the light quality of the LED display module.
- Check warranty and lifetime.
- Know the installation conditions.
- Consult a professional if necessary.
Installation and efficiency
LED accessories are easy to install and guarantee total energy efficiency, long life and easy maintenance.
Simple installation guide
- Switch off the power supply: Switch off the power supply to avoid any risk during installation.
- Gather tools: Prepare all the materials required for trouble-free installation.
- Secure the bracket: Position the bracket securely before installing the module.
- Install the module: Place the LED module in position, making sure it's securely fastened.
- Connect the wires: Connect the wires, respecting the color codes for correct connection.
- Test operation: Switch the power back on and check that the LED module is operating correctly.
- Adjust if necessary: Readjust the LED module for optimum, uniform light.
Follow these simple steps to install your LED modules safely and efficiently.
How do LED modules help you save energy?
LED equipment uses less than 80% of the energy of conventional lamps. The longevity of LED bulbs also means that users don't need to change lamps very often.
