🔍 What are LED Panels?

LED panels are flat light sources featuring a series of LED lights on a thin panel. They replace traditional lighting such as fluorescent tubes or recessed spotlights.

✨ Benefits of diffuse light
The light is distributed evenly, which is easier on the eyes – ideal for workspaces.

👁️🗨️ Great for lower ceilings
Unlike LED tubes, panels prevent you from looking directly into the light source. This makes them extra comfortable for ceilings of 2–3 meters high.

📐 Many variations available
LED panels are available in various sizes, shapes, and color temperatures – providing a solution for every type of room.

Below are the key advantages of LED panels:

🔋 Energy efficient
Save up to 75% on your energy consumption t.o.v. compared to traditional lighting.

⏳ Long lifespan

🎨Better color rendering
Perfect for stores, offices, or showrooms where color accuracy matters.

💡 Even light distribution

🔧 How do you connect an LED Panel?

Connecting an LED panel is easier than you think. What do you need?

🧰Requirements

• Driver (often included)
• Europlug with cord or a separate GST18/3 Wieland plug.

⚡ Installation guide:

1. Turn off the power. Ensure there is no voltage on the wiring.
2. Remove old lighting. Take the old panel out of the ceiling.
3. Connect the plug to the driver.

• • In many cases, this is already pre-assembled.
  • If not: unscrew the driver and connect the Europlug to the WAGO terminal block.

Dimming LED panels

LED panels from MeinLED are not supplied as dimmable by default (unless otherwise stated). However, most LED panels can be made dimmable. You can do this by purchasing a new driver; this driver/transformer must be dimmable. The LED panels can then be dimmed using a standard LED dimmer. You can connect multiple LED panels to a single dimmer, depending on the maximum wattage of the LED dimmer.De drie meest voorkomende manieren van het dimmen van een LED paneel zijn:
