Test conditions and notes13
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25β of ambient temperature.
- 2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE". For DA-Type, Constant Current region is 60%~100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.
- 3. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 4. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 5. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to βSTATIC CHARACTERISTICβ sections for details.
- 6. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 7. The driver is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 8. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80β or less.
- 9. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 10. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5β/1000m with fanless models and of 5β/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
- 11. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using. https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/LED_EN.pdf
- 12. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 13. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the ELG-100-36 to drive 36V LED strip lighting in outdoor installations?
Yes. The ELG-100-36 outputs 36V at up to 2.66A (95.76W) and carries an IP67 waterproof rating, making it suitable for outdoor 36V LED strip runs exposed to rain or moisture. Its -40Β°C to +90Β°C case temperature (Tcase) rating supports demanding outdoor conditions, with load derating at high temperatures.
Is the ELG-100-36 a good fit for powering 36V LED linear or tube fixtures?
Yes. The ELG-100-36 operates in constant-current mode with a CC voltage range of 18-36V, making it compatible with 36V LED linear modules or tube fixtures that require stable current drive. At 95.76W it can handle mid-size fixture arrays or longer linear runs.
Can the ELG-100-36 power outdoor LED landscape lighting running at 36V?
Yes. Its IP67 waterproof rating and wide 100-305VAC input make it well suited for outdoor landscape lighting installations where the driver may be mounted in a ground-level enclosure or exposed to irrigation spray. The -40Β°C to +90Β°C case temperature rating also accommodates both hot and cold climates, with derating at high temperatures.
How many meters of 36V LED strip can the ELG-100-36 support?
The ELG-100-36 delivers up to 95.76W on 200-305VAC input (70W on 100-180VAC, e.g. 120VAC). Divide the wattage by your strip's rated power per meter to find the maximum run length. At 95.76W, a 36V strip rated at 10W/m allows approximately 9.5 meters. Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load within the rating.
Can the ELG-100-36 be installed in a wet-location enclosure or direct rain exposure?
Yes. The IP67 rating means the unit is dust-tight and protected against temporary water immersion, so it can be mounted in outdoor enclosures, wet-location junction boxes, or areas with direct rain exposure; follow the IP installation cautions in MEAN WELL's user manual.
What is the difference between the ELG-100-36 and the ELG-100-36A, 36AB, and 36B?
All four share the same 95.76W / 36V / 2.66A output. The base ELG-100-36 has no adjustment or dimming and is IP67 rated. The -36A adds output voltage and current adjustment via potentiometer and is IP65. The -36AB adds both adjustment and 0-10V/PWM/resistance dimming (IP65). The -36B adds dimming only and retains the IP67 waterproof rating.
