SIZE AND POSITION
The size of the LED panel you will need will be largely governed by your existing ceiling grid. Once the old fitting is removed it takes a matter of minutes to install a drop-in Integral LED panel. Integral LED panels have an integrated LED drive with a plug-and-socket connector for rapid installation. If you are refurbishing a space – you can use the opportunity to switch to LED and optimise your lighting in terms of light output and cost. Costs can be reduced further by the use of control systems for occupancy detection. Work can be carried out in phases if required to minimise disruption. Please contact a qualified electrician for the installation of panels.
Currently, Integral LED produce panels to fit the following ceiling grids:
600mm x 600mm
1200mm x 600mm
1200mm x 300mm
You will need to make sure that there is enough depth and adequate ventilation for the new panel to be fitted. If replacing traditional panels, Integral LED back-lit panels provide a perfect drop-in solution.
If you have a narrow ceiling void or want to suspend panels; Integral edge-lit LED panels are ideal. Integral LED panels have been designed to be installed in most common (24 and 15mm) exposed ceiling grids.
Integral LED panels can be surface mounted on to a suitable substrate or recessed fitted into a plater ceiling using our fixing kits.
POWER
With traditional fluorescent fittings up to 40% of the light is "lost" in the fitting itself. Integral LED panels deliver a wider beam angle with more usable light with less power when compared to fluorescent fittings, which means you can;
- Upgrade - Enjoy higher light levels by replacing existing panels one-for-one with no changes to the ceiling grid.
- Optimise -Achieve similar or brighter light levels by using less LED fittings than existing. E.g. in a room that has 4 light fittings across, you may be able to reduce to 3 across using LED panels – making even more savings.

Traditional fluorescent 600 X 600 fittings (using 4 T8 tubes) deliver around 3,200 lumens with an energy usage of around 88W will ballast losses. This can be replaced with a LED panel using less one third of the power at around 25W with a similar light output.

EFFICACY - NOT ALL LED PANELS ARE THE SAME
With LED panels more light doesn’t always mean more power. Just like cars - you can have highly efficient, high tech models that will save massively on fuel compared to inefficient petrolguzzling models.This is true for LED panels - many manufacturers are still using older technology to drive their “cheap” panels. While initially you may save a few pounds per panel, over the lifetime of the paneland taking into account only energy costs, a considerable financial saving can be made by choosing the more efficient LED panels from Integral.
Integral LED panels use the latest technology to deliver ultra-efficiency and high light output. They use less power to produce comparable light output than less efficient panels, providing financial savings year-after-year of up to 44%.LED products are designed to last many years. Both the long term financial and environmental benefits of installing Integral LED panels are significant in terms of cost savings and energy efficiency. For larger projects the savings are very substantial, however no matter what size the installation, savings will quickly exceed the difference in panel unit cost.
Lumens-per-Watt - Choose Integral LED and save even more
Lumens are a measure of the total light output. The higher the lumens, the higher the light output. Lumens divided by power (Watts) gives a measure of the efficiency of an LED panel. The higher the lumens per watt, the more efficient an LED panel is. This is comparable to miles- per-gallon (MPG) or litres-per-100km for fuel efficiency. Make sure you check the lumens-per-watt rating. For example, an LED panel with a 3600 lumen output and a power rating of 45 Watts would have an 80 lumens-per-watt rating (80 lm/W). In comparison, Integral LED panels have a lumens-per-watt rating of 100-140 lm/W, up to a massive 75% efficiency improvement.
The table below compares Integral LED panels with a readily available less effcient LED Panel. Our Performance+ LED panel cost £15.33 per year to run when compared to £27.59 giving a saving of £61.30 per panel over five years. This shows how important it is to select the right panel.

COLOUR TEMPERATURE
This is a matter of preference and use. The colour temperature describes how the light from an LED panel will look and is denoted is Kelvin (K)
- Daylight White - 6500k for bright light and real colour definition ideal for shops and offices
- Cool White – 4000 to 5000K for clean modern look ideal for offices, schools, retail and commercial areas. This is the most popular choice for LED panels
- Warm White - 2700 to 3000K for a more traditional golden colour associated with filament lamps for areas like nursing homes.
DIMMING
Integral LED panels are delivered complete with a non-dimmable LED driver. If you require a dimming function you will need replace the current driver with a suitable dimmable driver and controller.
EMERGENCY VERSIONS
In most installations you will have to consider emergency lighting for a number of panels. In the event of a power failure the emergency LED panel will continue to provide some light in define areas such as escape routes for at least three hours. Local and national building regulations should be followed. Since LED panels use less power they are very suitable as emergency panels. Integral LED panels have ready to fit emergency versions available.
