WAC Lighting WS-W38520-27-BK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Wavelet WS-W385 outdoor wall light be used on a 277V commercial circuit?
Yes. The Wavelet WS-W385 ships with a universal driver rated 120V, 240V and 277V, so the same fixture works on residential 120V and on 277V lighting branch circuits in commercial buildings. The driver is concealed in the backplate, so nothing extra mounts in the box. It is hardwired, not plug-in.
2) Will the Wavelet WS-W385 mount to an existing 4 inch junction box?
It will. A decorative conversion plate for a standard 4 inch junction box is included with the fixture, so if you are replacing an older sconce over a round or square 4 inch box the cover is already in the carton. Mounting is wall only.
3) Is the WS-W385 Wavelet rated for a wall that gets rained on directly?
Yes, it carries a Wet location rating and is ETL and cETL listed, so direct exposure to rain on an open exterior wall, porch face, or unroofed patio wall is within rating. The light engine is factory sealed and the aluminum body has a weather resistant powder coated finish.
4) I need ADA compliant sconces for a corridor exterior at a healthcare facility. Does this one qualify?
The Wavelet WS-W385 is listed as ADA Compliant, which is why it uses a shallow rectangular wall form rather than a projecting lantern. Combined with the Wet rating and the 120/240/277V driver, it suits ADA-restricted exterior paths of travel on institutional buildings.
5) Do I have to pick the color temperature when I order the Wavelet WS-W385?
You can either way. The fixture is a 4-CCT selectable unit covering 2700K, 3000K, 3500K and 4000K, and it is offered pre-selected at each of those four settings, or you can set it in the field. For a property manager matching existing sconces on other buildings, 3000K is the common warm white and 4000K is the cooler, more commercial look.
6) What dimmer works with the WS-W385, and will it dim all the way down?
Use an electronic low voltage (ELV) or TRIAC dimmer. On either, the Wavelet gives continuous dimming. A standard incandescent-only or 0-10V control is the wrong pairing here, so spec the ELV/TRIAC type on the drawing.
7) How much light does the Wavelet WS-W385 actually put out, and is it enough for an entry door?
800 lumens from a 14W LED module, with a flood distribution, so the light spreads across the wall and the landing rather than throwing a tight beam. That output is typical for a single entry-door sconce; for a long patio wall or a wide garage face, plan on more than one fixture.
8) Does anything need to be replaced in the Wavelet WS-W385 over time, or is the LED sealed in for good?
The LED module is replaceable and rated for 50,000 hours, so the fixture is not a throwaway when the source eventually fades. Lamps are included, so nothing separate gets ordered at install. The module runs at 90 CRI, which is high enough that finishes and signage read true at a building entry.
9) Is the Wavelet WS-W385 Energy Star certified for a utility rebate submission?
No. The Wavelet WS-W385 is not Energy Star listed. If a rebate program on your project requires Energy Star qualification, this fixture will not satisfy that line item, even though it is an efficient 14W LED at 800 lumens.
10) Is there an installation guide for the WAC Wavelet outdoor wall light?
Yes, WAC publishes an installation guide for the Wavelet, available at https://zensupply.com/content/pdf/wac-lighting/installation-guide-8ad87d.pdf. Worth pulling before rough-in since the fixture is hardwired and the driver sits inside the backplate.
