Hello,
We have been living in the house for over six months now and have already installed most of the planned lighting fixtures. Now we are starting to work on the kitchen.
Here is a brief update on the current situation:
We have an L-shaped kitchen with a switched outlet on one of the walls. From this outlet, two circuits of LED strips are to be installed.
The plan:
I have looked at the Paulmann "YourLED" products. The LEDs are encapsulated and seem to be the best choice for the kitchen. A power supply will be connected to the outlet, from which two circuits will be run.
The first circuit is relatively simple: the power will run behind the wall cabinets and the LED strips will be glued underneath the cabinets.
I am still unsure about the second circuit: this is for the indirect lighting of the countertop from underneath (handleless kitchen).
The kitchen installer has laid a cable through the corner of the L-shaped countertop (fairly central) inside the profile beneath the countertop. Since two strips (one running right, one running left) need to be connected from this point, I am not quite sure how to manage this.
Paulmann only offers a four-way splitter, which will likely be too large to hide externally under the countertop. Unfortunately, there is no T-connector available...
Do you have any ideas on how to split one power source into two LED strips in the smallest possible space?
Best regards,
Sebastian
