Track Lighting FAQ

• What are the three types of track lighting?

  The three main types of track lighting are H-Type, L-Type, and J-Type. The differences between the three track types are the number of wires and the shape of the buss bars (what connects the power to the track fixture). H-Type is a 3-wire system with three thin, flat buss bars. L-Type and J-Type are 2-wire systems with two cylindrical buss bars.  Track Fixtures by Juno are J-Type, they can also be ordered with either a H-Type or a L-Type adapter to work with respective track systems.
