Commercial Lighting
Commercial lighting encompasses a broad spectrum of lighting solutions tailored to enhance functionality, safety, and aesthetics in business environments. Bay lights are a cornerstone of this category, offering powerful illumination for large spaces such as retail warehouses, industrial facilities, and gymnasiums. High bay lights are designed to be installed in ceilings higher than 20 feet, while low bay lights are suitable for ceilings 20 feet and under, ensuring that every corner of the space is well-lit and inviting. These fixtures not only improve visibility but also contribute to the overall ambiance, making spaces more welcoming for customers and workers alike.
Temporary work lights play an essential role in areas undergoing construction, renovation, or any situation that requires flexible lighting solutions. These lights are designed for easy installation and repositioning, allowing for adjustments as the project progresses. From LED string lights that can illuminate long corridors or sections of a building site to stand-alone floodlights that provide intense light for detailed tasks, temporary work lights ensure that work can continue safely and efficiently, regardless of the time of day or condition of the permanent lighting setup.

Why Do We Use AC or DC Power?
The fundamental distinction between AC (Alternating Current) and DC (Direct Current) power lies in the direction in which electrons travel. In the realm of electricity, the movement of charged particles, particularly electrons, constitutes electrical current. DC power is characterized by electrons moving steadily in a single direction, resulting in a constant flow. This steady flow is visually represented as a straight horizontal line on a graph, indicating uniform motion from one side to the other. Conversely, AC power features a dynamic current that varies over time, allowing electrons to oscillate between moving forward and backward. This oscillation is depicted on a graph as a sine wave, demonstrating the current's periodic shift from positive to negative direction and back, which is why it's referred to as Alternating Current.
Frequently observed in various applications, both AC and DC power are employed together. Take, for instance, an industrial control cabinet where AC power is typically provided to energize certain components inside the cabinet. These components are chosen because they are unaffected by the alternating nature of AC power. Subsequently, for more sophisticated devices within the panel that incorporate microchips or processors and necessitate DC power to operate effectively, the AC power is converted to DC power.
