WAC Lighting MT-116HS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Lighting MT-116HS housing be installed in direct contact with insulation?
No. The MT-116HS is a Non-IC housing, so insulation has to be held back from it. If the ceiling cavity is insulated and you cannot keep the insulation clear of the housing, you need an IC-rated recessed housing instead.
2) Does the MT-116HS low voltage housing need a separate remote transformer?
No separate transformer run is needed. The transformer is concealed inside the fixture, and the housing is fed directly with 120 VAC line voltage at 50/60Hz. You wire it like a line voltage can and the low voltage conversion happens in the fixture.
3) What kind of dimmer do I need for the WAC MT-116HS multiple spots housing?
Use an ELV (electronic low voltage) dimmer. The MT-116HS dims 100 percent down to 10 percent on ELV control. A standard incandescent or MLV dimmer is the wrong match for this fixture's electronic transformer.
4) Is the MT-116HS a complete fixture or just the housing?
It is the housing portion of the WAC Multiple Spots low voltage system, ordered as the Low Voltage Multiple Single Light Non-IC Housing. It covers one light position, so a multi-head layout means one housing per spot plus the matching trim and lamp head to finish the opening.
5) What protects the MT-116HS if a lamp shorts or the circuit is overloaded?
The fixture has electronic short circuit and overload protection that resets automatically, so a fault shuts it down without a trip to the panel or a replaced fuse. It also uses a soft start to reduce inrush stress and prolong lamp life, which matters on fleets of fixtures in hospitality or multi-family where lamp changes are the real cost.
6) What is the WAC MT-116HS made of, and what does the glass look like?
Aluminum hardware with a mouth blown etched glass diffuser. The etched glass softens the beam rather than throwing a hard spot, which is why it gets specified in retail and residential ceilings where glare off a clear lens would be a problem.
7) Is there only one version of the WAC MT-116HS housing to order?
One configuration: the Low Voltage Multiple Single Light Non-IC Housing, part number MT-116HS. There is no IC variant or finish choice at the housing level, so the ordering decision is quantity plus whichever trim and head you pair with it.
