Fixture body height, width, and depth measurements are essential dimensions that define the physical presence and spatial fit of lighting.
HANGING HEIGHT
The “hanging height” of a fixture is measured from the top-most point of the fixture (the canopy, where it makes contact with the ceiling) to the lowest point at the bottom.
DOWNRODS
Some ceiling-hung light fixtures offer adjustable hanging heights with downrods.
CHAIN
Some ceiling-hung light fixtures offer adjustable hanging heights with chain.
POWER WIRES
The length of the power wire is measured from when it exits the fixture body to its end.
DRY RATED
With waterproofing not a factor, dry-rated fixtures are free to be creative and edgy in their design.
DAMP-RATED
Designed to handle moisture without direct water exposure, these fixtures are built with sealed electrical components and corrosion-resistant materials.
WET-RATED
Designed to handle moisture without direct water exposure, these fixtures are built with sealed electrical components and corrosion-resistant materials.
SLOPED-CEILING COMPATIBILITY
Designed to handle moisture without direct water exposure, these fixtures are built with sealed electrical components and corrosion-resistant materials.
REVERSIBLE MOUNTING
Designed to handle moisture without direct water exposure, these fixtures are built with sealed electrical components and corrosion-resistant materials.
VOLTAGE
