Discuss Mounting LED Drivers in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I’ve got a project which has 10 LED Surface fittings whichhave separate drivers and are DALI controlled. It’s not possible to put the driversnear the fittings and they need to be mounted centrally. There is no problem withthe cable length/ sizing between the two.
The architect has suggested screwing them onto the wall inthe cloakroom. The sensible way is to mount them into an enclosure, but I’mconcerned about them getting too warm if I do.
Any ideas welcome!

 
So long as you have enough room to leave ventilation spaces between the drivers and have ventilation holes in the base and sides of the enclosure then you should be OK, most drivers are reasonably OK with limited confinement, it is totally enclosing them in a small space that leads to problems.
