When working in suspended ceiling lighting applications, speed of installation is critical. ACS offers two modular lighting systems for fluorescent and recessed lighting fixtures, Flex2 and Flex4. These systems are ideal for commercial, industrial, retail and institutional applications including offices, department stores, schools and hospitals.
The components simply plug together to supply power to every fixture down the line. When relocation occurs, components can easily be unplugged and plugged back in at their new location. Suspended ceiling systems are available to address local and panel switching in single or dual level applications.

The Flex2 modular lighting system requires only two basic components to supply power to fluorescent and recessed lighting fixtures. These components simply plug together and connect directly to the lighting fixture leads. This makes installation quick and easy, yielding impressive time and labor savings. The flexibility of the Flex2 system allows lighting fixtures to be easily relocated by simply unplugging connections, moving the fixtures, and plugging the cables back in again.
Flex2 is ideal for commercial, retail and institutional applications requiring panel switching. It can also be adapted to provide local switching. Flex2 is widely used in offices, department stores, supermarkets, schools, hospitals and other locations with suspended ceiling lighting. All components in the Flex2 system are rated for use on 20 ampere branch circuits and are UL listed and labeled.

- Connector housing is zinc-plated .060 inches cold-rolled steel
- Pin and socket connector design
- To eliminate inter-voltage connection each connector is keyed and color coded to meet specific voltage requirements
- IBEW Assembled, UL listed and labeled
- Meets requirements of NEC® Article 604
- Suitable for use in environmental air-handling spaces (Plenums) in accordance with NEC article 300.22 (C).
The Flex4 modular lighting system provides a quick and easy way to power fluorescent and recessed lighting fixtures. Its four basic components allow you to install and reconfigure lighting fixtures by simply plugging in and unplugging connections. The system also includes four accessory components which give the installer more options and greater flexibility when wiring the lighting fixtures.
Flex4 can support any switching application that is specified, single- or dual-level, single- or dual-circuit. Its unique, user-friendly design means installers need fewer cables than with any other system. Common applications of the Flex4 system include fluorescent and recessed lighting fixtures in commercial, retail and institutional applications such as commercial offices, department stores and schools. All components in the Flex4 system are rated for use on 20 ampere branch circuits and are UL listed and labeled. The Flex4 system handles a wide variety of local switching applications in commercial, industrial, retail and institutional locations.

Application
A versatile component in the Flex4 wiring system, the Extender Cable is used primarily to carry branch circuit
power to a switch module for a locally-switched application. However, it can also be used to extend the
length of other cables.
