Why is 48v for the low voltage track?

48V magnetic track lighting uses a dedicated DC power supply. Properly designed and installed 48V DC systems using a compliant SELV supply can reduce electric-shock risk compared with mains-voltage track lighting. Safety still depends on proper electrical isolation, protection, installation and maintenance.

that is also popular for using 48V, and low voltage track using 48V can drive longer track, in the track can be installed more lamps, from a point, line, surface, ball All cover all types of lamps to meet the needs of different customers for lighting.

The benefits of the 48V

  • Aesthetics: very small dimensions for low voltage products with an iconic look
  • Functionality: modular luminaires can be repositioned in compatible tracks according to the manufacturer’s instructions; isolate power when installing or servicing components
  • Safety: a correctly designed SELV 48V system reduces electric-shock risk compared with mains-voltage lighting; exposed conductors must not be touched while energized, and installation must follow the manufacturer’s instructions
