Abstract
A recessed lighting system includes a casting, a light source module and one or more optic elements disposed in the casting, and a driver to power the light source module. In one example, the system also includes a junction box or a 4-10 inch recessed lighting fixture enclosure in which the casting is disposed. The system may also include a trim to cover an exposed edge of a hole in a ceiling or a wall into which the recessed lighting system is installed. The system also may include one or more connecting mechanisms to couple the trim to one or both of the junction box/enclosure and the casting. In one example, the casting includes a front end face and the one or more connecting mechanisms couple the trim to the front end face of the casting. The connecting mechanism(s) may include a twist-and-lock friction connection.
