WAC Lighting WAC-WL-LED103 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the WAC Lighting WL-LED103 step light fit a standard 2x4 electrical box?
Yes. The WL-LED103 mounts to a standard 2 in x 4 in junction box, and the box needs minimum inside dimensions of 3 in L x 2 in W x 2 in D for the driver and wiring to sit properly. A junction box mounting bracket and hardware come with the fixture. Faceplate is 5 inches wide with a 3.13 inch backplate height, so it covers a standard box opening.
2) Can the WL-LED103 LED step light be used outdoors in a wet location?
Yes. It is wet location rated, UL and cUL listed, and IP66, which covers direct rain and high pressure water jets. The housing is cast K-alloy aluminum and the unit is factory sealed. It works indoors or out, so the same fixture can be used on interior stairwells and exterior walkways.
3) Does the WAC WL-LED103 step light need a low voltage transformer?
No transformer needed. This is the 120V line voltage version, hardwired directly to a 120V branch circuit at the junction box. It draws 3.8W. If you are running a 12V landscape system off a transformer, this is the wrong fixture for that circuit.
4) Does the WAC WL-LED103 step light turn on automatically at dusk?
Yes. This version carries the built in daylight photocell sensor, so it switches on at dusk and off at dawn with no timer or contactor in the circuit. For a property manager running a stair run or walkway, that means no seasonal reprogramming across the fixtures.
5) What is the difference between the 3000K and Amber versions of the WL-LED103?
Two builds are offered, both in a white finish: WL-LED103-30-WT at 3000K warm white, and WL-LED103-AM-WT in amber. Amber is the turtle friendly color, which is what coastal jurisdictions with sea turtle lighting ordinances require. 3000K is the general purpose warm white for stairs and walkways.
6) Is the WAC LEDme step light ADA and Title 24 compliant for a commercial stairwell?
Both. The fixture is ADA compliant and Title 24 compliant, which is what a California job or a public stair run will be checked against. It is also Dark Sky compliant, so it holds up where a municipality restricts uplight.
7) Is the white finish WAC step light suitable for a coastal or oceanfront property?
For salt air exposure, WAC offers stainless steel (-SS) and solid brass coated in bronze (-BBR) versions of the 120V step light line for corrosion resistance, and those are what the manufacturer recommends for coastal and marine environments. The WL-LED103 in white is a cast K-alloy aluminum body, IP66 and wet rated, which suits general exterior use away from direct salt spray.
8) What dimmer works with the WAC LEDme WL-LED103 step light?
Use an ELV (electronic low voltage) dimmer. That is the control type this 120V step light is rated for, so a standard incandescent or MLV wall dimmer is not the right match. Specify ELV on the switch legs when you spec the job.
9) Can I change the light color on the WAC WL-LED103 after it is installed?
Yes, without pulling the fixture off the wall. It ships with interchangeable lenses in clear, amber, red and blue, plus a replaceable LED. Standard glass is a frosted lens. That matters if a coastal property later has to switch a run of lights to amber for a turtle ordinance, or a facility wants red at an exit path.
10) Can the WL-LED103 be mounted with the light throw facing either direction?
Yes, it has reversible mounting, so the fixture can be oriented to cast down the tread or across a walkway depending on how the box is set. It is a horizontal 5 inch faceplate, 3 inch product height, with a 6 inch wire lead to make up in the box.
11) How bright is the WAC LEDme 5 inch step light, and how often will I have to relamp it?
Output is 100 lumens at 3.8W, which is a low glare wash for stairs and walkways rather than area lighting. Average rated life is 50,000 hours on the integrated LED, and the LED itself is replaceable rather than a sealed throwaway. Bulb is included; there is nothing to buy separately to light it.
