LED Array Configuration Calculator
LED Array Configuration converts the entered electrical measurements into total LEDs. Use it to the total LEDs calculation.
Enter values for total LEDs
Use one consistent electrical operating case for all fields.
How LED Array Configuration works
For this case, apply total = series × parallel. LED Array Configuration uses LEDs in series, Parallel strings to report Total LEDs.
With the loaded values, total LEDs evaluates to 48.00 LEDs. Hold the remaining entries steady while testing an uncertain input. For fixture spacing, use Light Fixture Spacing Calculator.
Inputs for LED Array Configuration
LEDs in series and Parallel strings belong to LED Array Configuration. Keep source units with leds in series.
The sample case is a worked example, not a design target.
- LEDs in series
- Example entry: 8.
- Parallel strings
- Example entry: 6.
Reading the LED Array Configuration result
This output represents LED Array Configuration.
Apply required margins only after identifying the correct equipment standard.
Measurement and units
Photometric results depend on fixture distribution, reflectance, mounting, maintenance, and the measured task plane. Check prefixes on leds in series.
Do not compare cases built from different unit prefixes or measurement locations.
Limits of this calculation
Current sharing between strings needs control. Illuminance belongs in the separate Inverse Square Lighting worksheet.
Only the stated inputs participate in this simplified model. Unentered effects remain outside LED Array Configuration.
Questions about LED Array Configuration
What does LED Array Configuration calculate?
It evaluates total LEDs from lEDs in series and parallel strings using the displayed formula.
Can LEDs in series be zero?
For LED Array Configuration, measure any zero leds in series directly.
Why can total leds differ from measurement?
Current sharing between strings needs control. Recheck leds in series.
Should the result be rounded?
Keep extra digits while comparing cases, then round to the precision supported by lEDs in series.
