<p>A plug-in dimmer module (13) for providing controlled power to one or more lighting fixtures or groups of fixtures. The dimmer module (13) includes a housing (23) with one or more circuit breakers (25a, 25b) located at one end, a power device (29) with one or more dimmer circuits located at an opposite end, and one or more toroidal chokes (27a, 27b) located in a middle section. The power device (29) includes built-in contacts (45a, 45b, 47) for output power to the lighting fixture(s) and for control and sensor signals, and the dimmer module (13) is adapted to plug directly into a slot in a rack (11), to engage the contacts. The components of the dimmer module (13) are laid out efficiently within the housing (23), with minimal wastage of space and without the need for extraneous electrical conductors.</p> |
