LIGHTING CABLE
Architectural lighting has evolved into an equally critical and complex integrated system within modern residen-
tial and commercial spaces. Lighting system cabling no longer consists of simple building wire. Instead, each
system has its own unique requirements for power and signal distribution between the supplies and control pan-
els. To provide individual system solutions, Sheer Wire lighting cables are produced in a variety of control,
power, and hybrid designs to meet the unique requirements of each system type. By combining these applica-
tion-specific designs with time saving features and premium materials, Sheer Wire lighting cables reliably con-
trol and simplify the wiring of complex lighting systems.
