Description
This is a length of Soho Surface track, the low-voltage rail that carries power to the light fittings that sit along it. It runs at 48V DC and has a slim, square-edged profile just 2.7cm by 2.3cm in section, with an open channel running its full length and the conductors held within it. We offer it in two finishes, white or black, so the track can sit quietly against a pale surface or draw a deliberate dark line across the room. It gives no light of its own: it is the backbone of a lighting run, letting you place fittings exactly where each one is needed.
Track lighting suits rooms where the light has to follow the layout rather than a single point: over a long dining table, down a hallway, above a run of shelves, or across artwork in a study, a shop or a small gallery. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms indoors only. The track is one part of a system, and it needs the rest of the Soho Surface system, each part sold separately, to work, from the fittings that give the light to the power supply that feeds the run. Like any 48V DC system, it runs from its own supply rather than straight from the mains.
The profile is straight and squared off, with flat faces and a neat channel that keeps the conductors recessed. In white it blends into a pale scheme; in black it becomes a crisp graphic line that suits darker rooms and industrial interiors. As a system fitting, it is for a qualified electrician to install. Our practical advice is to plan the whole run first, mark where each fitting should fall, and then choose the track, fittings and supply together, so every part of the Soho Surface system is matched from the start. Our photographs show the white version.

Frequently Asked
What finishes does the Soho Surface track come in?
We offer it in white or black, so you can match the track to a pale scheme or use it as a crisp dark line across the room.
What voltage does this track run at?
It runs at 48V DC, a low voltage, so it takes its power from its own supply within the Soho Surface system rather than straight from the mains.
How big is the track profile?
The profile is slim, measuring 2.7cm by 2.3cm in section, so it stays neat and discreet along the whole length of a run.
Can I use this track in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms indoors only, such as living rooms, hallways, studies and shops.
Does the track give any light on its own?
No. It carries power to the fittings, which give the light, so you need the rest of the Soho Surface system, each part sold separately.
