The driver converts mains voltage to the low-voltage DC current required by LED panels, downlights and strip installations, with overload and short-circuit protection built into the isolated circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for indoor commercial and residential installations rated IP20 or higher, the driver fits inside ceiling voids, control boxes and luminaire housings where ambient temperatures range from -20°C to +45°C. The 0.95 power factor reduces harmonic distortion on the supply and improves energy efficiency, while the 30,000-hour average lifespan minimises maintenance intervals in office, retail and home installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact 92mm x 49mm x 23mm plastic housing weighs 80g and includes screw-mount fixing holes at each end. The driver is non-dimmable and Class II rated, meaning it does not require an earth connection and is compatible with double-insulated luminaires. The IP20 rating makes it suitable for dry indoor environments only — not for bathrooms, kitchens or outdoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.08\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED or Halogen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for use in Zone 3 only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat LED fittings does this driver work with?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driver delivers 1000mA constant current at 32-40Vdc, making it compatible with LED panels, downlights and strip installations requiring that specific current and voltage range. Check your LED fitting's datasheet to confirm current and voltage requirements before pairing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this driver be dimmed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The S17438 is a non-dimmable driver. Attempting to wire it through a dimmer switch will not dim the connected LEDs and may damage the driver. For dimmable LED installations, a driver rated for dimming is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere can it be installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IP20 rating means the driver is suitable for dry indoor locations only — ceiling voids, control boxes and luminaire housings in offices, shops and homes. It is not rated for bathrooms, kitchens or outdoor use. The ambient temperature range is -20°C to +45°C, so loft installations in summer may require ventilation to prevent overheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it need an earth connection?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The driver is Class II rated, meaning it has double insulation and does not require an earth connection.
