What kind of waterproof connector does the AC wall washer come with?
AC wall washers are usually equipped with 2-core or 3-core (including ground wire) M12, M15 or M19 circular waterproof connectors. The protection level is recommended to be IP67 or above, with a rated current of 10A–16A and a voltage of 250V AC.
1; Core number selection: 2-core (L+N) is used for basic AC power supply; if the lamp has a grounded metal shell, you need to choose 3-core fret-shaped or round ground terminal.
2; Common specifications: M12 (wire diameter Φ8–10mm) Most commonly used; high-power or dense lighting optional M15/M18 (adaptable to larger wire diameters such as 2×1.0mm²–2×1.5mm²).
3; Waterproof grade: IP65–IP67. The injection molded structure is better than the threaded gland type to ensure long-term outdoor weather resistance.
4; Certification requirements: Priority is given to connectors with CE, CCC or TUV certification to ensure safety and compliance (especially AC 220V applications).
5;Installation method: Wall washers are mostly used male and female butt plug-in type or panel mounting flange type to avoid exposed connections.
head; it is recommended to use RVV 2×1.0mm² or 2×1.5mm² for the cable (depending on the power).
Avoid using DC-specific (such as MC4) or signal type (such as M8 small core count) connectors; if the lamp has a built-in driver and is rated "AC input", be sure to confirm that the rated voltage/current of the connector matches the lamp power supply specification (usually ≤250V/10A).
