The application of flood lighting is basically outdoor. Regarding the precautions for the installation of led lighting outdoor lighting fixtures, Heston Lighting has summarized the following points based on several years of experience.
Circuit protection problem
Due to the complicated working environment, LED outdoor lighting is affected by natural conditions such as temperature, ultraviolet radiation, humidity, rain, dust, and chemical gases.
Currently, LED packaging materials mainly use epoxy resin and silicone as packaging materials.
The difference between the two is that epoxy resin packaging has poor temperature resistance and is easy to age. Silicone packaging has good temperature resistance, so care should be taken when choosing it.
2.led lamp heat dissipation problem
LED lights are one of the key components of LED lamps, and their shapes, volumes, and heat dissipation areas should be designed as beneficial, small-sized, high-temperature LED lights that affect the efficiency and life of LED lights.
The consumption of materials then increases the cost and weight of the product, thereby reducing its competitiveness. So it is very important to choose the right quality and guaranteed LED light.
 For example, consider factors such as luminous efficiency, lifetime and working environment. In addition, the correct installation method is also a key factor affecting the life of the lamp, which is worth noting.
3. Fixing problems
Because the led lamp is outdoors, it will experience wind and rain, so how to fix it is very important.
If it is fixed with 3M glue, it will cause the 3M glue to decrease and cause the LED light strip to fall off for a long time. Therefore, it is often used to fix the slot in outdoor installation.
Where you need to cut and connect, the method is the same as for indoor installation, but you need to additionally provide waterproof glue to consolidate the waterproof effect of the connection point. Then fix it with a special fixing clip. You can use an electric hammer to fix the clip with a plastic expansion tube and screws.
In short, attention should be paid to the implementation of outdoor LED lights while ensuring safety and durability.
