WAC Lighting 24VDC 3x96W Remote Power Supply for Basics & Gemini Tape Light

The WAC Lighting 24VDC 3x96W Remote Power Supply is a Class 2, UL & cUL listed enclosed electronic transformer engineered to power WAC Lighting Basics & Gemini Tape Light systems. Built with a steel enclosure and rated for 120-277VAC input with 24VDC output, this remote power supply is compartmentalized so no compartment draws more than 5 amps, an intrinsically safer design for low-voltage LED tape light circuits. It is IP20 rated for damp locations and includes a 72in lead wire for direct connection to Basics & Gemini Tape Light, with longer lead wires (T24-BS-EX2) available separately.

Key Features

  • Output Configuration: Delivers 24VDC output from a 120-277VAC input, available in 3x96W capacity for higher-load Basics & Gemini Tape Light runs.
  • Durable Construction: Fully enclosed steel housing with an easy-to-remove cover and knockouts with clips for line voltage wiring.
  • Class 2 Safety Design: Compartmentalized construction permits no greater than 5 amps of current to be drawn on each compartment.
  • Low Minimum Load: 1W minimum load requirement allows reliable use with low-load LED tape light products.
  • Simplified Secondary Wiring: Class 2 secondary wiring does not require conduit sheathed cable or clamp wiring; 14-18 gauge stranded or solid wire is suggested (sold separately).
  • Dimming Compatibility: Smooth, continuous dimming with 0-10V, ELV, and TRIAC dimmers, installed on the primary side of the transformer.
  • Included Lead Wire: Comes with a 72in lead wire for Basics & Gemini connections; longer T24-BS-EX2 lead wires sold separately.
  • Circuit Protection: Soft start, short circuit, and overload protection.

WAC Lighting PS-24DC-U3X96R-BT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much tape light can the WAC 24DC-U3X96R-BT power supply actually run?
The 24DC-U3X96R-BT is a three-output driver, 96W per output, 288W total at 24VDC. Each output is its own compartment and no compartment draws more than 5 amps, so you plan three separate runs of up to 96W rather than one 288W run. If a single tape run exceeds 96W, split it across outputs or add a second supply.
2) Will this WAC power supply work on a 277V commercial circuit?
Yes. Input is 120-277VAC, so it lands on 120V, 220V or 277V primary feeds with 24VDC out. That makes it usable in commercial and multi-family panels without a separate step-down transformer. It is hardwired, not plug-in, with knockouts and clips provided for the line voltage wiring.
3) Can I dim WAC Basics or Gemini tape light with this driver, and which dimmer type do I use?
Dimming is on the line side. The driver takes 0-10V, ELV, and TRIAC control, and the dimmer installs on the primary side of the transformer, not between the driver and the tape. Minimum load is 1W, so short accent runs still dim smoothly instead of dropping out.
4) Can this power supply be installed in a bathroom or a covered exterior soffit?
It carries a Damp location rating with an IP20 enclosure, so a bathroom ceiling, a covered soffit or a cove is fine. IP20 offers no protection against water jets or direct rain, so it must not go anywhere classed as wet or be buried where it can be sprayed.
5) Do I need one of these per tape run, or can one driver feed three zones?
One unit covers three zones. The three 96W outputs are independently compartmentalized, so three separate tape runs can be fed from a single enclosure and a single line voltage feed. If those zones need to dim separately, though, each must be on its own dimmer circuit, which means separate drivers, since the dimming happens on the primary side.
6) Does the secondary wiring from this 24V driver to the tape light need conduit?
No. The secondary is Class 2, so it does not require conduit, sheathed cable or clamp wiring. WAC suggests 14-18 gauge stranded or solid wire for those runs, and that wire is not included. Line voltage side is still wired conventionally through the enclosure knockouts.
7) Where can this remote power supply be mounted, and is the enclosure suitable for exposed locations?
Mounting is unrestricted, ceiling, wall or any orientation, in a fully enclosed steel housing with an easy-to-remove cover for wiring access. Locksmith-tight spaces aside, most installers put it in a cabinet, above a ceiling or in a nearby accessible chase, since it is a remote driver rather than an in-channel one.
8) Is the WAC 24DC-U3X96R-BT UL listed for a permitted commercial job?
It is UL and cUL Listed as a Class 2 enclosed electronic transformer, and it is Energy Star. That covers inspection on both US and Canadian jobs. Protection includes soft start, short circuit and overload.
9) What is the rated life of this WAC 24V driver?
Rated at 50,000 hours average. Practically, that is the number to plan maintenance intervals against on a cove or under-cabinet installation, and it is worth mounting the driver somewhere that stays accessible rather than sealing it behind finished millwork.
