PRODUCT DATA
PE400 Power Extender
DESCRIPTION
Leviton’s PE400 Power Extender allows a
dimming zone’s power handling capacity to be
extended to a full 1000W/VA on 120V input
power. It allows a dimmer to dim or switch a
fully loaded circuit of electronic low voltage
and incandescent loads only.
FEATURES
• Works with electronic low voltage and
incandescent
• Emulates the characteristics of the dimmer
that it is connected to in terms of dimming
range and resolution
• Works with any Dimensions® Multi-Zone
Controller/Dimmer to extend load capacity
for electronic low voltage loads on any zone

MOUNTING
All Power Extenders must have 4-1/2”
spacing above and below each unit for proper
ventilation and heat dissipation (refer to figure
3). Line voltage wiring should be at least 6ft
away from sound or electronic equipment
wiring. Mount Power Extender to wallbox with
TOP facing up as follows: For wallbox mounting
(refer to figure 1), for flush mounting (refer to
figure 2) and for panel mounting (not shown),
proceed as follows:
• The enclosure must be in accordance with all
local and national electrical codes
• Leviton does not recommend using a door
to enclose the front of a panel, this restricts
airflow to the controls
• If mounting multiple controls in an enclosure:
- Ambient temperature within an enclosure
must remain between 32-104°F (0-40°C)
- If not mounting in a metal enclosure, all
units MUST be mounted in a wall box
• To improve heat dissipation of controls,
remove the faceplate from the unit

Single Feed Wiring
Line Hot can be

not exceed the rating
of the circuit breaker.
Dual Feed Wiring
The Input control

supplied by two circuit
breakers on a single
phase or by two
separate
phases.
