How to wire LED panel lights.

jexee55 · May 17, 2021

Hi, I am replacing 2 fluorescent light fixtures that were wired wrong with 2 LED panel lights with 2 3-way switches attached, where one has a 0-10v dimmer.
Both 3-way switches (with 3 wire romex) go to a ceiling box where there is also a feed which I will use for theses lights.
Can anyone send me a diagram on how to make these connections? Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you very much.

Have you a 0-10v dimmable LED driver in circuit? Are the panels dimmable?

Yes, one of the 3-way switches has a 0-10v dimmer. Both panel lights are dimmable and were working up to a week ago, then went off. Whoever wired it was very sloppy and I couldn't find the problem so my friend who supposedly knows about such things tried to rewire it and screwed it up. Now the lights are on all the time and the switches do nothing.
There is a ceiling box with the feed coming in as well as the wires for one of the panel lights. The two 3-wire romex cables from each of the 3-way switches also come into the same box. There is a panel light next to that ceiling box. That panel light has a 2 wire romex along with the separate 2 wires that is connected to the dimmer section that is connected to the panel light on the other side of the room to power it. Thanks for your help. John

That is just the 'controller', there will also need to be a 0-10v dimmable LED driver (Perhaps they already are, supplied with the panels?).
One of the switches is probably on/off for the driver as the dimmer controller (0-10v) does not switch OFF.
Diagram?

Yes, the panel lights have the ballast and driver in them. I am enclosing a diagram, please excuse the art work. I need to know how to wire it all in the j box. Thanks so much.
