The track and light structures can be connected to form straight lines with gap-free couplings or assembled to make right-angled structures with connecting parts.
The system design of the track and light structures enables different types of mounting: recessed, surface-mounted, with mounting accessories for ceiling panels or for suspension with wires or pendant tubes.
ERCO track is more than a power source. The system provides a flexible infrastructure for luminaires, that can move with your changing requirements. Track are the anchor for your lighting concept and are primarily designed for mounting on ceilings or walls, whereas the flanged track is designed for suspended ceilings. Individual track lengths can be connected with each other so as to form rectangular and other shapes.

System used for connecting luminaires for track.
For the power supply of luminaires for track. Flush mounting is possible with plaster trim profile (accessory).
The system design of the track and light structures allows for different mounting options: recessed or surface-mounted, with flanges for ceiling panels, and suspension using cables or pendant tubes.

ERCO’s differentiated product range has stood the test even in special situations – from planning complex light structures to meeting high load requirements.
The earth conductor in ERCO track systems is set in the lower profile edge. When selecting live end, L- and T-connectors, it must be ensured that the continuous line is not interrupted.
The position of the earth conductor is established by the orientation of the track system.
The track and light structures can be connected in straight lines using gapless couplers or mounted at right angles with connectors. When planning the track system, all track and connectors are initially outlined in top view without earth conductors. Starting with a T-connector, the earth conductors are then sketched as a through connection. The above definitions of earth conductor left/right will help to compile a list of required connectors for ordering. The drawing on the right illustrates an overview of article numbers.
Horizontal ceiling mounting:
All luminaires that are approved for the ERCO track system can be used.
Horizontal mounting on walls:
Only luminaires weighing up to a maximum of 2kg may be used.
Vertical mounting on walls:
The guiding groove on the track profile must be facing to the right.
Other mounting positions:
Please contact us for detailed information on the restricted use of luminaires.
