Q.Are the surface mounted fixtures UL approved?

• They are ETL listed. ETL is a competitor of UL who focuses on the electrical industry as opposed to UL who handles a wider scope of products. Many other companies in the lighting industry carry the ETL safety label including Lithonia, Thomas Industries and Progress Lighting. Visit their website at www.etlsemko.com.

• Fixtures are rated for 50W max lamps. ME styles include an electronic transformer. LP styles include a magnetic transformer, and MO, MI, & MM styles require remote transformers.

Q.What styles are the LP, MI, ME and MO available in?

• Most of our low voltage track heads can be custom adapted to any of these canopies. Check with the factory for availability. As these are custom made, they are not returnable.

Q. What is the difference between an LP-007 and an LP-007P?

• The "P" (portable) indicates that the fixture is installed with a 9' cord and plug to be used as a portable unit. The LP-007 is for direct wiring.

Q. How do I order an LP, MI, MO or ME with an 18" extension? What about with swivels
