Progress Lighting P184-TG – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a Progress Lighting P184-TG recessed housing fit in a 2x6 ceiling cavity?
Yes. The P184-TG is the shallow version built for 2x6 framing, with a recessed depth of 5.5 inches. A 2x6 joist is 5-1/2 inches deep, so the can sits within the cavity without needing furring or a dropped section. If your framing is 2x4, this housing is too deep.
2) What size hole do I cut in the ceiling for a Progress P184-TG housing?
Cut a 5-1/8 inch ceiling opening. The housing frame itself measures 14.0625 inches wide and 5.6875 inches high overall, so allow for that footprint above the drywall when you lay out against joists or ductwork.
3) Can this recessed housing touch insulation, or do I need to keep batts back from it?
It is an IC/Non-IC housing, so blown or batt insulation may sit in direct contact with the can. That matters in a 2x6 remodel ceiling where you cannot reliably maintain a clearance gap around the fixture. It also works fine in an uninsulated bay.
4) Is the Progress P184-TG rated for a bathroom or a covered exterior soffit?
It is UL-CUL listed for damp locations, which covers bathrooms, covered porches and soffits where the fixture sees humidity but not direct water. It is not rated for wet locations such as an open shower or unprotected exterior exposure.
5) Does the trim come with this Progress recessed housing?
No. The P184-TG is the housing only, unfinished galvanized steel, and it ships one per carton. Trim is a separate order. The housing uses a spring mounting system that pulls the trim up snug to the ceiling once installed.
6) What bulb does the Progress P184-TG recessed can take, and is one included?
One medium base E26 porcelain socket, spec'd for an A19 incandescent lamp at 120V. No lamp ships with the housing, so order lamps separately. A standard screw-base LED A19 retrofit threads into the same E26 socket.
7) How does the wiring connect on the Progress P184-TG, and is a junction box needed?
The housing comes prewired with an integral wiring compartment using 1/2 inch pryouts for cable or conduit connectors. You feed straight into the housing, so no separate remote junction box is required for the fixture connection.
8) Can this housing be installed in a drop ceiling grid, or only in framed joists?
Both. Progress lists mounting in ceiling joists or in suspended ceilings. At 2.5 pounds it is light enough to handle overhead on a ladder, and Progress notes the fixture weight does not exceed NEC limits for the outlet box it connects to.
9) Does the Progress P184-TG meet California Title 24 or JA8 requirements?
No. Progress lists this housing as not Title 24 compliant and not JA8, and it is not Energy Star certified. If you are permitting residential work in California under Title 24, this is not the can to spec.
10) Can this recessed can be aimed or mounted in a sloped ceiling?
No. The P184-TG is a fixed ceiling-mount housing and cannot be mounted up or down. It is for flat ceiling installation only, with the lamp firing straight down. For a sloped ceiling you need a housing built for slope.
