Test conditions and notes12
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 3. The driver is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 4. This series meets the typical life expectancy >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is 70℃ or less.
- 5. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixture, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 6. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 7. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
- 8. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using. https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/LED_EN.pdf
- 9. Based on IEC 62386-101/102 DALI power on timing and interruption regulations, the set up time needs to test with a DALI controller which can support for DALI power on function, otherwise the set up time will be higher than 0.5 second for DA type.
- 10. RCM is on a voluntary basis. Non IC classification Independent LED control gear is not suitable for residential installations.
- 11. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the ENEC/BIS/CCC/KC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 12. For A/AB/ADA type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application

FAQ
Can I use the ELGC-300-L-A for LED downlights with long series LED strings?
Yes, if the downlight is designed for 1400mA constant current and the total LED load falls within the 116-232V CC range. This model is intended for constant current LED loads, not constant voltage products.
Is this driver suitable for signage modules that use a higher-voltage constant current array?
It can be suitable for signage systems built around a 1400mA constant current LED array with total forward voltage between 116V and 232V. It is not intended for standard constant voltage signage modules that expect a fixed DC voltage output.
Can the ELGC-300-L-A run a small LED array with a high total forward voltage?
Yes, as long as the array is specified for 1400mA constant current and operates within the 116-232V constant current range. The exact number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so the load must be checked by total voltage rather than LED count.
How should I check compatibility for this 1400mA constant current driver?
The LED load must require 1400mA constant current and have a combined forward voltage within 116-232V. The number of LEDs will vary based on each LED forward voltage, so there is no single fixed LED quantity for this driver.
Can this driver be used in damp or semi-protected locations?
Yes, it is rated IP67 waterproof, which is suitable for damp and wet locations. It also carries a working case temperature (Tcase) range of -40°C to +85°C for demanding conditions.
