LED strip driver & controller selection.

Plan power supplies and controls around the exact LED strip. Define connected lengths, voltage, channel configuration and installation conditions before approving the complete system.

Illustrative LED driver, dimming control, cabinet sensor and strip components
Illustrative LED driver and control components

Make the strip, supply and controls work as one system.

Start with the selected strip SKU and confirmed electrical data. Then review the supply, controller, sensors, wiring and installation together. A matching voltage label alone does not establish compatibility or an approved assembly.

What to confirm

Strip voltage & channels
Identify the exact strip supply voltage and white-light or colour-channel configuration.
Connected load
Use confirmed W/m and the connected lengths. Check the selected driver’s loading limits and installation instructions.
Dimming & control
Define the required dimming method, controller, sensors and user behaviour. Confirm compatibility across components.
Wiring & environment
Review feed positions, conductor selection, enclosure conditions, access and applicable project requirements.

Define each part of the system.

Power supply

Confirm input requirements, DC output, usable load, installation environment and the exact driver documentation.

Controllers & dimming

Describe the required brightness or colour behaviour, control interface and strip-channel arrangement.

Explore this direction →

Sensors & wiring

Specify sensor position, switching behaviour, cable routes and service access in the project brief.

Power and controls for your LED strip.

Tell us the strip and the control behaviour you need. We can discuss the next steps for your setup.

Open the load calculator →
  1. Identify the strip

    Start with the LED strip model, its supply voltage and colour channels.

    Review
  2. Calculate the connected load

    Use the model’s W/m and connected length to estimate load, then check the chosen driver’s operating limits.

    Review
  3. Describe the control behaviour

    List dimming, colour adjustment, sensor position, switching behaviour and user access.

    Review
  4. Discuss your setup

    Tell us the installation environment, wiring layout and components you need.

Frequently asked questions

Resolve the details that affect your selection.

How do I estimate the connected load?

Multiply the confirmed strip power per metre by the connected length. The load calculator provides a planning figure; driver selection still requires the component’s limits and installation conditions.

Should every driver be loaded to the same percentage?

No. Loading limits and derating depend on the specific driver and installation. The calculator’s ratio is an adjustable planning assumption, not a universal rating.

Can one controller operate any LED strip?

No. Confirm voltage, channel arrangement, current limits and control requirements for the exact controller and strip.

What should I send for a matched system inquiry?

Send the strip SKU, individual and total lengths, voltage, colour function, dimming or sensor requirements, feed layout and installation conditions.

POWER & CONTROL DETAILS

Make space for the complete system.

Plan access to drivers and controls

Allow service access, appropriate mounting space and protected cable routes. The pictured arrangement is a concept reference; confirm the exact components and installation requirements for your project.

Discuss the components you need

Tell us the selected strip, load and switching or dimming behaviour. These illustrative components do not represent specific listed models.

LED strip driver & controller selection

Plan the driver and controller around the strip’s actual voltage and channel configuration. Fixed white, tunable white and RGB-based models can need different controls. This page covers system selection; the catalogue does not currently list stocked driver or controller SKUs, so send your proposed arrangement for a project-specific discussion.
