and Solo-Task fixtures • May also be used to operate other low
wattage LED or incandescent loads.
TL576-25-BL: 12V-25VA remote magnetic transformer Class 2
• Rated for 0.5-25 watts total load • 120VAC input • Ideally
suited for driving Juno Mini LED Downlight/Gimbal and Solo-Task
fixtures • May also be used to operate other low wattage LED or
incandescent loads.
TL576-60-BL: 12V-60VA remote magnetic transformer Class 2
• Rated for 0.5-60 watts total load • 120VAC input • Ideally
suited for driving Juno Mini LED Downlight/Gimbal and Solo-Task
fixtures • May also be used to operate other low wattage LED or
incandescent loads.
Construction Potted core and coil • 13 volt boost tap • Thermally
protected primary • Manually resettable, fast-acting magnetic circuit
breaker on secondary • Primary and secondary circuits physically
and electrically isolated.
Circuit Breaker Resettable magnetic circuit breaker • Provides
faster short circuit protection than standard thermal circuit breakers
• Provides overload protection which is unaffected by ambient
operating conditions • Eliminates false overload failures due to
elevated ambient temperatures which can occur with thermal circuit
breakers • Enables transformer to be mounted in any position.
Dimming 120V installations only – consult factory for 277V
dimming applications • Incandescent loads can be dimmed with
high quality dimmers designed specifically for use with magnetic
transformer • LED loads may be dimmed using only dimmers that
have been tested and qualified by Juno for use with Juno LED fixtures
referenced on the following pages – consult factory to confirm
compatibility of other dimmers prior to installation with Juno LED
fixtures.
Installation Easy access front located wiring compartment • Wire
nut terminations for input and output circuits • Operate in accessible
locations with ambient temperatures below 140˚ F.
Labels UL/CUL listed • New York City Approved.

VOLTAGE DROP CALCULATIONS (FOR MAGNETIC TRANSFORMERS)
Voltage drop is a function of the following factors:
Wire Length:
As the wire length from the supply to the fixture becomes longer,
voltage drop increases.
Wire Diameter:
As the wire cross-sectional area becomes smaller, voltage drop
increases (this is related to the resistance per foot of wire).
Amperage of the Electrical Load:
As the amperage of the electrical load increases, voltage drop
also increases.
Voltage drop in 12 volt systems is 10 times greater
than in 120 volt systems.
This is because a load of the same wattage has 10 times greater
amperage in 12 volts as compared to 120 volts.
This is illustrated by the formula:
WATTS = VOLTS x AMPS
Assuming a 120 watt electrical load:
120 WATTS = 12 VOLTS x 10 AMPS
120 WATTS = 120 VOLTS x 1 AMP
Voltage drop from a magnetic transformer to the
first lampholder on 12V Trac 12 can be
calculated as follows:
TRANSFORMER
VOLTAGE DROP = 2D x A x Ω
WHERE:
D = Distance in feet from transformer to 1st lamp
A = Total amperage load of all lampholders on the trac
Ω = Resistance per foot of wire per the following chart:
