What a ceiling feed doesThe
ceiling feed, listed by ARANI as a
canopy, is the piece that connects the track system to the building wiring at a ceiling outlet box. It mounts over the box, hides the connection and brings power into the track, so H-type
track heads can be installed and aimed along the connected run. It belongs to the ARANI black track lighting system with 4 ft and 8 ft lengths, an end feed, a mini-joiner, L and T connectors and end caps, all sharing the same black finish and H-type connection.
Construction and ratingsIts housing is black
polycarbonate, and it measures 4-1/4 in × 4-1/4 in (108 mm × 108 mm), a compact square that finishes the ceiling neatly. It is the only part of the family specified with a
12 AWG conductor size. The track system is designed for 120 V, with a maximum current of 20 A and 1,920 W, is rated
IP20 for dry indoor locations and operates from -20 °C to 45 °C. It carries cETLus certification and a 3-year warranty.
Installation tipsTurn off the power at the panel and remove the old fixture. Check that the
ceiling box is securely fastened, then have the electrician connect the supply to the canopy's 12 AWG conductors, mount the canopy over the box and attach the track. Depending on where the supply is, the
end feed for track is the other way to power a run. Add branches with the
T connector for track, keep the total load of the heads within 1,920 W and 20 A, and follow the
Canadian Electrical Code.
Where it makes senseMost homes have a
ceiling box above the kitchen table, the island or the centre of a room: the ceiling feed lets you replace that single fixture with a track that lights several zones at once. It is just as practical in condos, where new holes in a concrete ceiling are rarely an option, in boutiques that re-aim their lights with each new display, and in restaurants, studios and offices. For Canadian homes, where long winter evenings are spent indoors, turning one ceiling light into flexible
track lighting makes a real difference. The spec sheet in the Documentation tab lists the dimensions of every part of the system.
