5.2 Electrical Wiring
Connect the fixture's wires to the building's electrical system. The fixture includes a terminal block for secure connections.
- Connect the Black wire (Line) from the fixture to the building's hot wire.
- Connect the White wire (Neutral) from the fixture to the building's neutral wire.
- Connect the Green/Ground wire from the fixture to the building's ground wire.
- For dimming functionality, connect the purple and gray wires from the fixture to a compatible 0-10V dimmer switch (if applicable).
5.3 Linking Multiple Lights
Multiple DAKASON linear lights can be linked together to create a continuous lighting system. Up to 15 lights can be linked at 120V AC.
- Remove the end cap from the output side of the first fixture and the input side of the next fixture.
- Use the provided linking connectors (terminal blocks) to connect the output wires of the first fixture to the input wires of the second fixture. Ensure correct wire matching (Line to Line, Neutral to Neutral, Ground to Ground).
- Slide the fixtures together until they are securely connected.
- Repeat for additional fixtures.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on | No power supply Loose wiring connection Faulty fixture | Check circuit breaker and wall switch. Verify all wire connections are secure (ensure power is off first). Contact customer support if power is confirmed and wiring is correct. |
| Light flickers | Incompatible dimmer switch Loose wiring Power fluctuations | Ensure dimmer is 0-10V compatible. If not using a dimmer, check wiring. Check all electrical connections. Consult an electrician to check power supply stability. |
| Incorrect color temperature | CCT switch set incorrectly | Adjust the CCT selectable switch on the fixture to the desired setting (WW, NW, or DW). |
| Dimming not working | Incompatible dimmer Incorrect dimming wire connection | Ensure a 0-10V compatible dimmer is used. Verify purple and gray dimming wires are correctly connected to the dimmer. |
