ELV10 Dimmers & Magnetic Low Voltage Transformers

I have a project that has experienced a last minute change.  We now have a dimming LED driver that is designed to work with any triac style dimmer.  The manufacturer says it will work with any dimmer that will drive a magnetic transformer.  The problem is that the zone is slated to be controlled by an ELV10 tray.  It is only about 40 watts.  Is this OK?

  • hello

    the elv10 Electronic Low Voltage module is designed to be used with electronic loads,  you do not want to put a magnetic load onto a ELV module.  it would be advised to use a d20.  Remember there is a minimum load necessary for a d20 to fire correctly.  This might cause the need to add a ghost load.

    thanks
