Lighting Current Limiters
Supplementary circuit breakers, designed to limit available wattage
based on the actual lighting design criteria, thereby avoiding the
“watts-per-linear-foot penalty” imposed by energy codes while
maintaining track lighting density, performance and configuration
flexibility.

Lighting Current Limiters
• To limit the size of the electrical service
• NEC 220.43(B) requires 75W per linear foot for service calculations.
• By using current limiter you can use the track load as a typical lighting
load.

Lighting Current Limiters
• Required by local Codes:
• California Title 24.
• City of Seattle Energy Code.
• City of Denver Energy Code.
Why use current Limiters (cont.)
04/13/23 4
• To help meet local codes:
• IEEC and ASHRAE 90.1 requires 30-watts per linear foot.
• California Title 24 requires 45-watts per linear foot.
• City of Seattle Energy Code requires 70-watts per linear foot.

Lighting Current Limiters
• Standard layout without current limiters
• 100’ of track and (32) 39W CHM (45W total fixture wattage).
• 32x45=1440W connect load.
• Using track length wattage calculations: 100x45 (based on T24)=4500W.

Lighting Current Limiters
• Revised layout using short track segments without current limiters
• 64’ of track and (32) 39W CHM (45W total fixture wattage).
• 32x45=1440W connect load.
• Using track length wattage calculations: 64x45 (based on T24)=2880W.
