What you need to know about the track lighting system
To begin with, we'll see what it is. These are spotlights that are attached to the guide with a special busbar. Such a mount makes it possible to change the position of the lamps, directing the light in the desired side, thereby highlighting specific zones and details of the interior.
The whole design consists of a busbar, spotlights, plugs and rotary mechanisms. Therefore, it is quite easy to collect and mount. Guides are of different lengths. With the help of the connector, you can combine them with each other, increasing the length. Forms are also varied - M-shaped, P-shaped, straight and rounded. To make the desired form, use the appropriate connector. With this device, it is easy to connect separate guides to each other.
Such a design can be external and built-in. For example, to install track lamps in the stretch ceiling, use the built-in bus. Visually, it is much less damaging than the outer. Therefore, it is also chosen if they do not want to attract excessive attention to the ceiling.
To one busbar, you can fix spotlights of different shapes and capacities. To highlight some particular subject indoors, for example, make an emphasis on the table, a bookcase or a wall laid out by brick, choose a spotlight with directional lighting. The scattered light highlights not only the subject, but also the area around it. On the bus station you can combine different types of floors. For home lighting, there is enough power from 7 to 13 watts.
Manufacturers offer two types of tire structures: magnetic and single-phase. In a magnetic spotlights, are magnifying the busbar, which greatly simplifies the assembly process. But in this case they should only be from one manufacturer. Magnetic spotlights from different manufacturers are incompatible with each other. Single-phase track tire does not limit the buyer in combinations. Its price is almost two times lower than that of the magnetic, and the size of the lamps is greater.
Lamps can be different: LED, halogen, luminescent. Most often, LED applied for home use.
Where to hang track lamps
A wide variety of models and the ability to combine each other different types of lamps make such lighting universal - it is easy to enter into any interior and arrange the entire apartment - from the kitchen to the nursery.

In the living room
In the living room, designers often refuse to central lighting in favor of decorative: point, sconce and flooring. Using a bus system, usually distinguish the zone above the sofa and near the TV. If the room is quite spacious, the busbar can be installed around the perimeter.
Classic single-phase busbar is more cumbersome, so it is better to choose a magnetic room for a small room.
In the living room tracks can also be combined with other light sources: chandeliers, LED ribbon or point lamps. It is important that the lighting devices are combined with each other, but were not from one ensemble. It is enough to choose products in the overall stylist.

In addition, sending the light in different directions, you can simultaneously highlight the door, a wardrobe and a mirror, without using additional lighting devices.
Simple line track, you can make a corridor ceiling. The guide is laid along the wall, and the lamps rotate on the right side. In this way, using a smooth transition of light, you can combine the general zones - a corridor from the living room.
