WAC Lighting 24" Hudson LED Picture Light PL-LED23

Yes. The Hudson PL-LED23 uses a universal input driver rated 120V, 240V and 277V, so the same fixture goes on a residential 120V circuit or a 277V commercial lighting panel with no separate part number. The driver is concealed inside the fixture housing, so there is no remote transformer to find room for.

Hardwired only. The PL-LED23 mounts to the wall on a 24 inch backplate and has no cord or plug option, so you need a junction box or an accessible wall feed at the mounting height. If a plug-in fixture is what the job calls for, this is not the one.

An electronic low voltage (ELV) dimmer. The PL-LED23 dims smooth and continuous on ELV and is not a TRIAC/incandescent-dimmer fixture, so if you are replacing an old picture light on a standard forward-phase dimmer, plan on swapping the wall control too. Using the wrong dimmer type is the usual cause of flicker or drop-out on these.

Damp location rated with an IP44 listing, so a covered porch, a breezeway, or a bath outside the shower zone is fine. It is not wet-location rated, meaning no direct rain or direct spray. The fixture carries ETL and cETL listings for US and Canadian use.

Yes on both counts - it is listed Title 24 compliant and Title 20 compliant, which is what a California job or a spec sheet calling for JA8-era compliant fixtures will be looking for. It is not Energy Star listed and it is not ADA compliant, so if the wall location falls in a required ADA circulation path, check the 3.06 inch projection against your clearance requirement.

Integrated LED, no lamp to buy or change. It draws 17.5W and is rated 50,000 average hours, which for a gallery or lobby running 12 hours a day is over eleven years before the light source is a maintenance item. That is the tradeoff: nothing to relamp, but the fixture is the light source.

1,490 lumens at 3000K, a warm white that reads well on oil, canvas and wood frames without the yellow cast of halogen. The beam is a flood spread through a white acrylic diffuser, so the wash is even rather than a hot spot in the middle. WAC lists custom CCT as a special order if a project spec calls for something other than 3000K.

Two finishes: Aged Brass (PL-LED23-30-AB) and Black (PL-LED23-30-BK), both in 3000K. For a hotel or multi-unit job where you are hanging several, order the same finish code across the whole set - the Hudson family is a traditional style on an aluminum body, so the finish is the only visible variable.

Both. The head on the Hudson PL-LED23 rotates 35 degrees up or down, so mounted above a canvas you tilt it down onto the art, and mounted below or alongside you can throw it up. The mounting data lists up/down orientation on a wall backplate.
