Abstract

A lighting test method that includes connecting a housing including driver electronics and a junction box to a main power source. The main power source is connected to a main power connector in the junction box. The driver electronics includes a first terminal. The method further includes connecting a power testing module to the first terminal to the driver electronics to determine whether the main power source is correctly connected to the main power connector in the junction box. The method further includes replacing the power testing module with a second terminal of a light engine housing. Connecting the first and second terminals provides that the driver electronics are in electrical communication with a light engine within the light engine housing.
