Dimmer Current and Wattage Issue

Question: Can the dimmer PC24R2C-130WM be used with the light source CL-5050R24V0.6ACM?

Answer: No. The PC24R2C-130WM has a fixed maximum output of 2.7 A. Connecting a 0.6 A light source will damage it. You must use PC24R2C-65WM instead.

Dimmers below 1.5 A have automatic current detection, which protects the light source from overcurrent.

The PC24R2C-130WM (130 W / 24 V / 2 C = 2.7 A) exceeds 1.5 A.

Dimmers above 1.5 A are fixed current output. For example, a dimmer with a maximum 2.7 A output will always supply 2.7 A, even if the connected light source only requires 0.6 A at maximum.
