Built from a solid extrusionThe LL Series track is extruded aluminum with flat, solid integral conductors rated at 20 amps. Construction is 1/32" die cast aluminum, with 3/64" PVC insulators that hold the 12 gauge flat conductor wiring firmly in place, and a polarity groove machined on the face of the track to indicate the location of the grounding conductor — a small detail that makes installing heads and connectors far less guesswork. The copper electrical conductors stay concealed in an insulating thermoplastic, low profile track cross-section, so nothing is exposed along the run. The silver finish of this SL version keeps the channel visually quiet on white, grey or wood ceilings.
Electrical and installation detailsThis is a single circuit track for 120V applications: one hot and one neutral conductor, each rated for 20 Amps per branch circuit, with a system electrical rating of 20A, 120V, 60Hz. Track lighting is a single circuit electrical distribution system designed to supply power to lighting units in flexible ways, which is exactly why it suits renovations — a single junction box can feed an entire row of fixtures. Power can be brought in several ways depending on your ceiling: a live-end (LE6110) for power from the end of the track with no canopy, a live-end with canopy (LE6111) fed from a junction box, a wired-end (WE6110) fed from a receptacle, a center feed (CF6108) that powers the track anywhere along its length and includes a canopy cover, or a live-end conduit feed (CA6106) with a 7/8" knockout for top or end feed. Finish the open side with an end cap (TK6000-END). Always have the connection made by a qualified electrician, following your provincial electrical code.
Shaping and suspending the runTrack sections can be joined together using any of the compatible track connectors, so one straight 8-foot section is only the starting point. Use the I-connector (IC6101) to join two sections at 180° for a longer straight run, the L-connector (LC6102) for two sections at 90°, the T-connector (TC6103) for three sections at 90°, the X-connector (XC6104) for four sections at 90°, or the flexible connector (FC6105) when two sections meet at varying angles — handy in a room where the ceiling geometry is not square. For high or sloped ceilings, the TDR62 hollow stem rod kit suspends the track and includes a ceiling canopy, mounting brackets and hardware, while RODR62 suspends the track from the ceiling and RODF62 is the hollow stem rod for track fixtures. Note that accessories are sold separately.

Where it works and what to downloadPicture a straight run over a long kitchen island with heads aimed at the counter, a gallery wall in a hallway where each frame gets its own beam, a retail shop lighting seasonal displays that change monthly, a hair salon lighting each station, or a home office that needs task light without a renovation. Other lengths in the same family cover shorter walls and longer commercial runs, and the identical section is available in
