# Track adapters and driver boxes explained

MATCHING PARTS · By [Victoria](https://www.jhtlightaccessories.com/pages/about-us-1/), Sales Manager

An adapter connects a luminaire or driver box to the rail and picks up its conductors; the driver box houses the LED driver. This guide lists the published adapters and driver boxes by circuit configuration so they can be matched to a rail.

**Direct answer.** A track adapter is the interface between a luminaire or driver box and the rail: it fixes the unit mechanically and picks up the rail’s conductors. A driver box houses the LED driver and carries that adapter interface. Both are matched to the rail by circuit configuration.

Model codes, circuit configuration and housing material as published per model.

## Why the circuit configuration decides the match

Two rails that look similar can carry different conductor arrangements. An adapter built for a single-circuit rail has no way to pick up a specific circuit on a multi-circuit rail, and the reverse is equally true. Matching by circuit configuration — not by the shape of the profile alone — is what keeps a specification from failing on site.

## Driver boxes and housing kits

Track light housings published on this site are quoted as a kit: aluminium housing, driver box and lens or holder together. That is deliberate — it means the body, the driver enclosure and the optics are matched before they leave the factory rather than being reconciled across three suppliers.

## Key facts

| Specification | Value |
| --- | --- |
| In lighting accessories since | 2010 |
| Factory area | 10,000 m² |
| Minimum order | Housings 300 pcs per size · track and components 100 pcs |
| Samples | 3–10 days for an established model, within 2 weeks in all cases |
| Mass production | 15–35 days depending on order quantity |
| UL / ETL | Not held — no UL or ETL claim is made |

## Questions this guide answers

Can one adapter carry different luminaires?

The adapter has to match both the rail platform and the unit it carries. Send the rail profile and the luminaire or housing reference and we will confirm the combination rather than guess it.

Are driver boxes supplied separately?

They can be. They are published as their own references by circuit configuration, and they are also included in the housing kits published on this site.

Do you supply drawings for adapters?

Component and track drawings are supplied on request with the quotation; send the model number and the drawing you need.
