NUVO Lighting TP163 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How far does the NUVO TP163 extension wand drop a track head below the track?
The TP163 wand adds 18 inches of drop between the track and the fixture head. That is the whole point of the part: on a high or sloped ceiling, the head sits 18 inches lower so the beam starts closer to the merchandise, artwork, or work surface instead of spreading out over a long throw. The wand itself measures 18 x 1.25 x 0.5 inches.
2) Can a NUVO TP163 extension wand be used in a parking garage, covered walkway, or bathroom with a shower?
No. The TP163 wand is rated for dry locations only, so it stays inside conditioned interior space. Covered exterior walkways and parking structures are damp locations, and a shower or steam area is wet, both beyond what this wand is listed for. For those openings you need track components carrying a damp or wet location rating.
3) Is the TP163 18 inch extension wand metal or plastic?
Plastic. The wand body is a molded plastic part in a black finish, not a metal stem. For a retail or gallery install where the wand is visible against a dark ceiling that is normally what is wanted, but if the spec on the drawing calls for a metal stem this is not the part that satisfies it.
4) Does the NUVO TP163 wand require a Prop 65 warning for a California job?
Yes. The TP163 is identified as containing lead under California Proposition 65, so a California installation carries the Prop 65 disclosure obligation. Institutional and public-agency buyers in California usually want this flagged in the submittal package rather than discovered at delivery.
5) Is an extension wand the right fix for track heads that are too far from the display, or should I move the track?
A wand is the cheaper fix when the ceiling height is the problem and the track layout is right. Adding the TP163 drops the head 18 inches without touching the track run, the feed, or the ceiling. Relocating track is the answer when the heads are in the wrong plan position, not just too high. One wand per head, so on a run of eight heads you need eight of them.
6) Does the NUVO TP163 extension wand come in any finish besides black?
Black is the only finish the TP163 is built in. If the track run and heads on the job are white or brushed nickel, the wand will read as a dark line against them, so on a white ceiling most installers either accept the contrast or select a different wand.
