Modular LCM Datasheet and
Installation Guide
Overview
The modular LCM is a cost effective method of providing power and control for
lighting installations in industrial, commercial and retail buildings. The system
is designed for ease of installation: mains input is connected using the spacious
wiring compartment, DALI control inputs and outputs are pluggable using industry
standard connectors. The modular approach allows for between 2 and 16 luminaires
to be connected.

Installation of Box
4 x key slots to accept
M6 (1/4”) fixings BESA box fittings
Channel for channel
nuts (zebs)
Removable gland
plate with 3 x
Ø20mm knockouts
3 x Ø20mm knockouts
for rear cable entry
The box should be fixed on a smooth, flat surface or using drop rod fixings attached to channel
nuts.
Ensure that there is easy access to the wiring compartment and all connectors once the box is
in-situ.
Warning: This device works at mains voltage. Be sure to take care when working with
electricity.

Warning: For correct installation,
connector plugs must be fully engaged
and latched on both sides.
• All wiring must be mains rated.
• Remove wiring compartment cover.
• Wire the box using the diagrams below.

Permanent live feeds emergency fittings
• Use the cable clamps to secure the wiring or use cable glands (not supplied). The clamps
can be split, and flipped over to clamp different cable diameters.
• Replace wiring compartment cover.
• Plug in the luminaires ensuring that the connector latches to the box.
Note: Live is NOT internally
connected and NOT fed through
to outputs. See page 5.
