Stangpendel til køkkenø, 80 til 120 cm LED

A long horizontal fitting built to light a whole table rather than its centre, with the structure kept lean enough to see past. Sit six people down and everyone gets the same light, not just whoever drew the seat under the bulb.

It manages that by doing two things at once. Elongated horizontal bars carry a broad, even wash down the length of the surface, while slim vertical cylinders drop focused light in between them, so the table gets both the general glow and the definition that makes food and faces look right. The result is a distribution with real depth to it, generous across a wide surface and never flat. Over a dining table, a kitchen island or an open living area, that combination is the difference between a room that is merely lit and a room you want to stay in.

Geometrically it is a balanced composition, horizontals and verticals reading against each other in a way that feels distinctly modern and deliberately drawn. The construction is aluminium and acrylic, a pairing chosen for behaviour as much as looks: the acrylic softens the diodes into an even glow and the aluminium frame keeps a 120 cm span straight and true. Both are temperature-resistant and fade-resistant, and the paint used on them is durable and non-toxic, so the finish you take out of the box is the finish you still have in five years. Black or gold, and the choice changes the whole mood, black disappearing into a dark ceiling and gold catching what light there is. Above all, the frame stays visually light, an architectural line overhead rather than a mass you have to look around.

Three sizes, each matched to a wattage: small at 80 cm (31.5″) drawing 21 W for 2310 lm, medium at 100 cm (39.4″) at 26 W for 2860 lm, and large at 120 cm (47.2″) at 31 W for 3410 lm. All weigh 2 kg (4.4 lb). The LED is integrated and energy-saving, rated for 50,000 hours, and you choose the tone when you order: warm white at 3000K, neutral white at 4000K or cool white at 6000K. It runs on AC 90-260 V and is hardwired. The adjustable suspension wires give you up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) of drop, so the height can be tuned to your ceiling and your table instead of the other way round, and the canopy measures 25 cm (9.8″) long by 5 cm (2″) wide by 3.5 cm (1.4″) deep. Certification covers UL, CCC, CE, CQC, EMC, FCC, GS, LVD, PSE, RoHS, SAA and VDE. For a dimmable build, write to info@clerachic.com; do the same before ordering if your ceiling is sloped, so we can check the fixing with you first.

Installing it is the familiar chandelier routine. Fix the mounting bracket to the electrical box, hang the fitting from the ceiling, and set the wires to the drop you want. The junction box you need is supplied.

This fitting hangs from a ceiling outlet box and is wired into your mains supply. Work out your hanging height before you connect anything - it is far easier to set the drop with the wiring still loose than to redo it afterwards.

Before you start

• Mounting: the fitting secures to a standard ceiling outlet box. The bracket and fixings are in the box.
• Weight: check that your outlet box and ceiling can carry the fitting. Weights are listed in the Product Specifications above. A heavy chandelier may need a brace fitted between the joists.
• Hanging height: the supplied cord, chain or rod can be shortened. Over a dining table, a drop that leaves roughly 75 to 90 cm between the table top and the bottom of the shade suits most rooms.
• Ceiling type: every model suits a flat ceiling. Sloped-ceiling compatibility is stated per product in the Product Specifications above.
• Power: these fittings are hardwired. They do not plug into a socket.
• Dimming: models with a replaceable bulb can usually be dimmed with a compatible dimmer. Integrated LED models generally cannot.

Tools you may need

• Screwdriver
• Voltage tester
• Wire strippers
• Wire nuts or terminal connectors (supplied)
• Step ladder, and a second person for anything heavy or wide
• Drill, if you are fitting a new outlet box or bracing the ceiling

Installation

Turn the lighting circuit off at the consumer unit or breaker panel - the wall switch is not enough. Test at the ceiling outlet with a voltage tester and confirm the wires are dead.

Screw the supplied bracket to the ceiling outlet box with the screws provided. Tighten evenly and check that it sits flat and square; a bracket that is not level will show in the finished hang.

Adjust the cord, chain or rod to the drop you want before you make any electrical connection. Lock the length using the canopy adjuster or the grip inside the canopy. Where a cord is shortened, coil the surplus neatly inside the canopy rather than cutting it - that keeps the height adjustable later.

• Live to live: black, brown, or the terminal marked L
• Neutral to neutral: white, blue, or the terminal marked N
• Earth to earth: green, green-and-yellow, or bare, to the earth terminal or screw

Secure each connection with a connector and press the wiring gently up into the box. Nothing should be trapped between the canopy and the ceiling when you close it.

Lift the canopy or backplate onto the bracket and fasten it with the screws or decorative caps supplied. Work up to a firm fit rather than forcing it - decorative caps and plated threads strip easily.

Fit the bulb type and wattage listed in the Product Specifications above. Where several sockets share one shade, use identical bulbs so the colour and brightness match across the fitting.

Switch the circuit back on and test the light, including the dimmer if you have fitted one. Isolate the power again before re-opening anything.

Important tips

• Follow the wiring rules that apply where you live, and use a qualified electrician for high ceilings, sloped mounts or anything you are unsure of.
• Have someone hold a wide or heavy fitting while you make the connections. Do not let it hang on its wiring at any point.
• Clean glass and crystal with a dry, soft cloth. Do not spray cleaner onto a fitting that is wired in.
• Do not over-tighten decorative parts: they are finished, not structural.
