New Age in LED Installation?

[Erik Sine]

Is it me, or is this just something new where LED channel letter installers just wire a LED power supply in a LED or Transformer box and just toss it in without fastening it?

I've seen this a few times and it happens more and more often.

I came across a national install for a bank and there were four GE Powers supplies just stacked on top of one another in a single T-Box.

Usually the idea of fastening it to the box is to also use the box as a heat sink, but four stacked on top of one another?

Sloppy work

:lol_hitting:

Seen the same thing as well. I think I posted a pic on here last year that had 6 P.S. in one box. We follow code here. Nothing leaves our shop un mounted, or without the toggle switch wired. We even inspect our national install parts. It's a whole lot more cost effective for a shop guy to wire and mount them. Then having my installers jack with it in the field. Oh, don't forget the wire nuts on the last LED in a row. Can't leave those hi voltage clipped wires exposed.....

LOLOLOLLOOL how about the service call for a service call when the original is mounted and the replacement is just thrown in there.

Anyone thought about using the circuit taps like in a panel for the (common or ground line) for the low voltage connections, Beats the hell out of those big blue wire nuts, but does add a few cents onto the material list and inspectors really like when its done that way.
