Why choose the Polycab Aluminium Backlit LED Downlight

• High-grade pressure die-cast aluminium body for better heat dissipation and a long life
• Retrofit design for quick, straightforward fitting into existing ceiling cut-outs
• Soft, diffused light with a wide spread and glare-control optics

How to choose and fit it

Wattage and spacing. In a room about 2.7 to 3 m high, 12 W spaced about 1.2 m apart, or 15 W spaced about 1.2 to 1.5 m apart, suits offices, cabins and meeting rooms; 18 W spaced about 1.5 m apart, or 24 W spaced about 1.5 to 1.8 m apart, suits larger rooms and lobbies - roughly 300 to 500 lux at desk height. The room size sets how many downlights you need; send us the room size and we will confirm it with a layout.

Colour. 6500 K cool white looks the brightest and suits open-plan work areas and service areas where a crisp light is wanted. For offices, meeting rooms and banks, the 4000 K neutral white version (to order) is the balanced choice; 3000 K warm white is also available to order.

Fitting. Cut the ceiling to the listed opening (±5 mm), connect the driver to the supply, and push the downlight up into the opening until its springs hold it. The retrofit design suits existing cut-outs - check that the old opening matches the listed size. It runs on 220 to 240 V AC. Isolate the supply before work; a qualified electrician should install it and connect the earth where the fitting has an earth terminal.
