LED neon installation is one of the most popular and aesthetically pleasing lighting techniques that allows you to create stunning lighting effects and contours. It is characterized by high energy efficiency, durability and a wide range of possibilities for use.

Flexible neon is available in a variety of shapes, including round and rectangular profiles. These profiles can have different thicknesses, allowing LED neon to be adapted to different conditions and project requirements.

Flexible neon connection diagram:

  • Network cable: Start by connecting the network cable to a power source that provides the desired voltage and frequency.
  • Power Supply and Control Box: Connect the power cable to the power supply, which converts electrical energy into the appropriate voltage and current to power the flexible neon. Next, connect the control unit to the power supply. The control unit provides brightness adjustment, color change and other lighting control functions.
  • Cable with connector: Attach the cable with connector to the control unit. Connectors usually have special connectors for connecting to the control unit and flexible neon.
  • Flexible Neon: Connect the other end of the cable with connector to the flexible neon. Pay attention to the correct orientation and alignment of the pins.
  • End Cap: If it is necessary to cover the ends of the flexible neon, install an end cap on one or both ends of the flexible neon. The end cap provides a secure and finished appearance for flexible neon.

Please note that wiring diagrams may vary depending on specific flexible neon models and manufacturers, so it is important to follow the instructions provided by your equipment manufacturer.

Where and how to cut flexible neon?

Cutting flexible neon is an important part of the installation process as it allows you to create the desired sizes and shapes for your lighting project. Here are some guidelines for cutting LED neon:

  • Check cutting locations: LED neon manufacturers usually mark special cutting locations on their most flexible neon. Read the instructions carefully and pay attention to these marks to ensure the cut is made in the correct location.
  • Use the right tools: To cut LED neon, you can use a utility knife or special scissors for cutting flexible neon. Make sure the tool you choose is sharp and suitable for the type of material.
  • Be careful: Care must be taken when cutting flexible neon. Make sure your hands and fingers are kept a safe distance from the blade of the knife or scissors to avoid possible injury.
  • Cut straight: Try to make the cut even and straight. Make sure that the blade of the knife or scissors goes over the cutting area specified by the manufacturer to avoid damaging the LED elements inside the flexible neon.
  • Check cut quality: After cutting, inspect the fresh cut of flexible neon to ensure it is straight and meets your specifications. If the cut is uneven or incorrect, you may need to recut or replace the cut section.

It is important to note that when cutting LED neon, you should not cut off random sections, but follow the specified cutting locations to avoid damaging the internal elements and maintain the functionality of the LED neon.

Installation of flexible neon

After all elements of flexible neon are connected and tested for functionality, you can begin installation. Here are some recommendations for installing flexible neon, depending on its shape:

  • Rectangular LED Neon: To install a rectangular LED neon, you will need to degrease the surface you plan to mount it to. Then, using the adhesive side of the flexible neon, adhere the back side to the surface. Make sure the neon is attached evenly and tightly. If the surface is not strong enough to support the neon, additional fasteners may be required
  • Round LED Neon: Round LED neon is usually installed in a hanging position where the ends are secured and the neon is shaped into the desired shape. To do this, it is necessary to secure the ends of the flexible neon using special fasteners or hangers. Give neon the shape you want by arranging it according to your design and aesthetic preferences.
