WAC Lighting WAC-WS-W47318 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Lighting Alternate 18 inch LED wall light be used in an exposed outdoor location with direct rain?
Yes. The Alternate WS-W47318 carries a Wet location rating and is IP65 rated, with ETL and cETL listings, so it can go on an exposed wall, soffit, or entry with no overhang. The housing is aluminum with glass diffusers. It is rated for indoor or outdoor use, so the same fixture can be specified inside a lobby or breezeway and out on the facade.
2) What voltage does the WS-W47318 outdoor wall light run on, and do I need a different model for 277V?
One model covers all three. The driver is universal 120-240-277V and is concealed in the canopy, so the same 18 inch Alternate fixture works on residential 120V and on 277V commercial lighting circuits without ordering a separate version. It is a hardwired fixture, not plug-in.
3) Will the WAC Alternate wall light work on my existing dimmer?
It needs an electronic low voltage (ELV) dimmer for smooth, continuous dimming. A standard incandescent/forward-phase (TRIAC) wall dimmer is not the specified control and can give you flicker or a limited range. If the opening already has a legacy dimmer, plan on swapping it for an ELV unit.
4) How do I set the color temperature on the 18 inch Alternate LED wall light?
There is a Tri-CCT switch inside the canopy, reachable during installation, that toggles between 2700K warm, 3000K warm white, and 3500K white. Fixtures ship factory pre-set to 3000K, so if that is what the job calls for you can hang it and move on. For a project standardizing on a single appearance across many openings, set each switch before closing up the canopy.
5) Does the WAC Alternate outdoor sconce meet California Title 24 or qualify for Energy Star rebates?
No on both. The WS-W47318 is not Title 24 compliant, not Title 20 listed, and not Energy Star. It is also not ADA compliant, which matters if the mounting location is in an accessible route where projection limits apply.
6) What size junction box area does the WS-W47318 cover, and how much wall does it take up?
The fixture is 18 inches tall and 8.13 inches wide, with a 4.75 inch backplate. Mounting is wall-only, vertical, and it can be oriented either up or down, so confirm you have 18 inches of clear vertical run above or below the box before laying out the course of fixtures.
7) How much light does the WAC Alternate 18 inch sconce actually put out? Is it enough for an entry or a parking path?
It draws 12W and delivers 252 lumens in a flood distribution, split up and down through the angled glass planes. That output is accent and wayfinding level, good for facade rhythm, unit entries, and corridor marking. It is not a substitute for a parking lot or area light where you need measured foot-candles on pavement.
8) Can the LED be replaced in the WS-W47318, or is the whole fixture throwaway?
The light source is an integrated LED, one module, with no socket or lamp to change. Nothing to stock as a spare bulb. Rated average life is 52,000 hours, which is the number to use for maintenance planning on a multi-building replacement cycle.
9) Can I mount the Alternate 18 inch fixture horizontally over a garage door or sign?
No. Mounting is specified as wall mounted vertically only, either up or down. The angled planes that throw light top and bottom depend on that vertical orientation, so a sideways install is outside how the fixture is intended to go up. For a horizontal wash over a door or sign, look at a linear or sign-light form factor instead.
