WAC Lighting WAC-BL-69317 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the WAC Loyd BL-69317 reading light plug in, or does it have to be hardwired?
The Loyd LED reading light is hardwired. There is no cord or plug, so it needs a junction box at the mounting location and an electrician (or licensed maintenance tech) to make the connection. The LED driver is built into the backplate, so no remote driver or transformer is needed behind the wall.
2) Can I put the Loyd LED wall light on a dimmer?
No. The Loyd is non-dimming. It uses a simple on/off toggle switch on the canopy itself, so if the circuit is currently on a dimmer you should swap that device for a standard switch or leave the dimmer at full output. Do not spec it into a room where dimming control is on the drawing.
3) Will this WAC reading light run on 277V in a commercial building?
Yes. The Loyd is rated 120-240-277V, so the same part number works on residential 120V, 240V, and 277V commercial lighting circuits. That makes it usable in hotel guest rooms and multi-family units on 120V and in commercial spaces fed at 277V without a separate SKU.
4) Can the Loyd BL-69317 be used in a bathroom or a covered porch?
Damp location rated and IP44, so it is fine over a vanity, in a bathroom outside the shower zone, or under a covered exterior porch or breezeway. It is not rated for wet locations, so keep it out of direct rain, direct spray, or an uncovered exterior wall.
5) Is the WAC Loyd reading light ADA compliant for a corridor or patient room?
No. The Loyd is not ADA compliant, and at 4.38 inches wide it projects past the 4 inch limit for wall-mounted objects in an accessible route. Use it in a guest room, over a desk, or beside a bed where it is not in a circulation path, and pick an ADA-rated sconce for corridors.
6) How much wall space does the Loyd take up and how big is the mounting plate?
The fixture is 11 inches high and 4.38 inches wide, on a 5 inch round backplate. The 5 inch backplate covers a standard round or single-gang wall box. Plan the mounting height for the head, since the light hand-adjusts 180 degrees along the horizontal to aim it where you need it.
7) Is the LED replaceable in this WAC Loyd fixture, or do I replace the whole light?
The light source is an integrated LED, so there is no socket and no lamp to change. When it reaches end of life the fixture is replaced. Rated average life is 50,000 hours, which is why it gets specified for hotel headboards and similar spots where relamping a bedside lamp is a recurring service call.
8) How bright is the WAC Loyd reading light and what color is the light?
832 lumens at 3000K warm white, from 17 LEDs behind a polycarbonate diffuser, drawing a maximum of 11 watts. The beam is a flood distribution rather than a tight spot, so it washes a reading area or a bedside surface instead of throwing a narrow pool. If your building standard is 2700K or 4000K, this one will not match.
9) Does the Loyd wall light meet California Title 24 for a new build?
Yes, the Loyd is Title 24 compliant and Title 20 listed, so it can be used on California projects where the energy code applies. It carries ETL and cETL listings for the US and Canada. It is not Energy Star rated.
10) What finish does the Loyd BL-69317 come in?
One finish combination: Black with Aged Brass, ordered as BL-69317-BK/AB, in 3000K. The body is all steel with a metal base, so it holds up better to handling than a plastic-bodied task light, which matters when guests grab the head to aim it.
