TRACK CURRENT LIMITER
Overall Dimensions – 7.5” x 5” x 1.2”
TITLE 24 Guidelines for calculating wattage on Line Voltage Track:
The wattage for track lights on line-volta
ge tracks shall be determined
by one of the following two methods:
1. Volt-Ampere (VA) rating of the branch circuit(s) feeding the tracks,
or the higher of:
• Wattage (or VA) rating of an integral current limiter controlling the track system, or
• 15 watts per linear foot of track.
2. The higher of 45W per linear foot of the track, or
total wattage of all of the luminaires included in the system.
Example – What is the wattage of a 20 foot track system that is
equipped with an integral current limiter rated at 400 watts?
The wattage of the track is the higher of: 15 w/lf X 20ft of track = 300 watts, or
The wattage rating of the current limiter which is 400 watts.
Therefore, the wattage of this track is the greater of the two, or 400 watts.
For specifi c lighting calculations refer to – Title 24, Section 5 - Indoor Lighting
Track Lighting Energy Code
Compliance Made Easy
• The W.A.C. Track Current Limiter is easy to
install and assures compliance to California
Title 24 or ASHRAE 90.1 requirements.
• Energy code track installations are
subject to wattage limitations based
upon the size and usage of the space.
• To specify the appropriate Current Limiter,
simply select the model number which
corresponds to the H, L, or J Track systems
and the maximum allowable wattage.
• The Track Current Limiter may be mounted
as a standard canopy, used in place of an “I”
connector or as a Live-end.
How It Works
• If the track is overloaded, the Current
Limiter circuit breaker will trip and shut
down power to the track.
• The device maybe reset when the overall
sum of fi xture wattages are reduced below
the circuit breaker rating.
It’s that easy to ensure energy effi cient
usage of track installations.
