About the Edison Price Architectural Lighting EPC-8-6000L-40K-90-**/***/****-DIM10-*****/
The Edison Price Architectural Lighting EPC-8-6000L-40K-90-**/***/****-DIM10-*****/ is an 8 in. pendant LED downlight certified under the ENERGY STAR program for light fixtures. It produces 5,970 lumens from 66.2 W of input power, an efficacy of 90.2 lumens per watt. That efficacy is better than 26% of the 39 Pendant models in our database.
Light quality: the fixture offers a 4000K color temperature (neutral white) and a color rendering index of 90, which renders skin tones, wood and fabrics accurately.
Notable features include continuous dimming (0–10 V supported). The rated light-source life is 71,500 hours.

Safety information
- Turn off power at the circuit breaker — not just the wall switch — before installing, removing or servicing the fixture, and confirm the circuit is dead with a non-contact voltage tester.
- Installation must comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) or Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and local codes. Many jurisdictions require a licensed electrician and a permit for new fixture locations or new wiring; if you are not comfortable with household wiring, hire one.
- Use only the junction box, housing, or mounting hardware specified in the installation instructions, and do not exceed the box-fill limits of the junction box.
- Install the fixture only on a circuit whose voltage matches the label, and never modify the LED driver or module.
- Connect dimmable fixtures only to dimmers the manufacturer lists as compatible, and keep the total connected LED load within the dimmer's LED rating (often much lower than its incandescent rating).
Installation and first-time setup
Pendant downlights hang from a canopy fastened to a ceiling junction box. The box must be rated to carry the fixture's weight; follow the instructions for setting the cord or stem length before final wiring.
- Turn off power
Switch off the breaker and verify the circuit is dead.
- Set the drop length
Adjust the cord, cable or stem to the hanging height you want. Over a table, the bottom of the fixture is commonly 30–36 in. above the surface.
- Mount and wire
Attach the crossbar to the box, connect line, neutral and ground with listed connectors, and secure the canopy.
- Restore power and test
Turn on the breaker and test the fixture.
Using your downlight
Dimming
The fixture dims continuously. In addition to phase-cut (wall-box) dimming where supported, the certification data lists 0–10 V dimming. Check the manufacturer's compatibility list: most LED drivers work best with trailing-edge (ELV) or LED-rated dimmers, and some dimmers have a low-end trim adjustment that stops flicker at the bottom of the range.
0–10 V dimming uses a separate pair of low-voltage control wires (usually purple and gray, or purple and pink) run to a 0–10 V dimmer or lighting controller. Keep the control wiring separated from line-voltage conductors as the instructions and code require.
Light output and placement
At 5,970 lumens, this is a high-output fixture suited to tall ceilings, lobbies, retail and other commercial spaces. LED fixtures reach full brightness instantly and are not shortened by frequent switching.
Care and maintenance
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| Every 3–6 months | Dust the trim and lens with a soft, dry microfiber cloth with the light off and cool. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the fixture. |
| Every year | Check that the canopy and suspension are secure. |
| When cleaning greasy kitchens | Wipe the lens with a cloth dampened in mild soapy water, then dry it. Avoid solvents and abrasive pads, which can cloud the lens. |
The integrated LEDs are not user-replaceable bulbs. The rated light-source life of 71,500 hours works out to roughly 65 years at 3 hours a day, or about 16 years at 12 hours a day. Over time the LEDs gradually dim rather than burning out; when output becomes too low, or if the driver fails, replace the fixture or LED module as the manufacturer directs.
Troubleshooting
Most downlight problems trace back to dimmer compatibility or wiring connections. Always turn off the breaker before opening the fixture or the junction box.
| Problem | Possible cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on | Breaker off or tripped; loose wire connection; switch or dimmer failure. | Check the breaker; with power off, confirm connections in the junction box are tight; test with a standard switch. |
| Flickers or buzzes when dimmed | Dimmer not compatible with the LED driver; dimmer low-end trim set too low; too many or too few fixtures on the dimmer. | Use a dimmer on the manufacturer's compatibility list; adjust the dimmer's low-end trim; keep the load within the dimmer's LED rating. |
| Faint glow when switched off | Illuminated or smart switch leaking a small current; shared neutral wiring issue. | Try a standard switch; use a smart switch that has a neutral connection; have an electrician check the wiring. |
| Does not dim smoothly or turns off at low settings | Dimmer range not matched to the driver. | Raise the dimmer's minimum setting; consult the dimmer and fixture compatibility notes. |
| Color looks different from the other fixtures | Fixture has a different color temperature from neighboring fixtures. | Use fixtures with the same color temperature (this model is 4000K). |
| Fixture pulls away from the ceiling | Mounting bracket loose; junction box not secured to framing. | Turn off power and tighten the bracket screws; have the box secured if it moves. |
| Turns off by itself after running a while | Driver overheating, often from insulation packed around a fixture or a loose connection. | Turn off power and check the installation. Do not cover Non-IC fixtures with insulation; call an electrician if the problem continues. |
Energy use and running costs
The Edison Price Architectural Lighting EPC-8-6000L-40K-90-**/***/****-DIM10-*****/ draws 66.2 W. Used 3 hours a day — a typical home assumption — it consumes about 72.5 kWh a year, roughly $12.32 per year at an electricity price of $0.17 per kWh. In a commercial space lit 12 hours a day, the same fixture uses about 290 kWh, or $49.29 a year.
Efficacy — lumens of light per watt of electricity — is the best single measure of a fixture's efficiency. This model delivers 90.2 lm/W. That figure is better than 26% of the 39 Pendant models in our database.
| Daily use | Energy per year | Cost per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 hour | 24.2 kWh | $4.11 |
| 3 hours | 72.5 kWh | $12.32 |
| 6 hours | 145.0 kWh | $24.65 |
| 12 hours | 290.0 kWh | $49.29 |
The listed power factor is 0.99, high enough that the fixture draws current efficiently from the supply — useful in commercial buildings with many fixtures on one circuit.
Dimming reduces power roughly in proportion to light output.
